Remember what Bilbo used to say...

" It's a dangerous business, Frodo, going out your door. You step onto the road, and if you don't keep your feet, there's no knowing where you might be swept off to."

Do my feet smell?

No more Coco Thai!

We rode pass the Deep water bay only to find one of our favorite places to eat Coco thai is GONE! Our friend just ate there a few days ago. How sad, that is Hong Kong for you things build up and close in a blink of an eye. I loved Coco thai is was set on the beach and I loved the view when the sun was going down. Now I need to find another place on the beach to eat and drink.

Burger King in Hong Kong

While we were exploring Wan Chai and we stumble upon .... A Freaking Burger King. No we didn't eat there... we were in the mood for Japanese food. But I will travel back there when I am missing America.

WANCHAI

This is noway of the sort in endorsing Burger King as a great place to eat. Burger King can be a nice place to go when a person wants to think about being back in the states and a person want to go somewhere familiar.

What to do today?

Showered, dressed and ready to walk out the door…. I wonder what new adventures are in store for us today in Hong Kong.  Maybe a new restaurant, temple/shrine, book store , or maybe something completely off the wall. I will keep you posted.

Living in Hong Kong

I have lived here one year and one month. I have found where to shop for food, where to shop for wine, where to shop for kids clothes, where to shop for bulk items , and I have created a nice group of friends.

Now I need a job!!
