Hi everyone,
After 24 hours of traveling and a 16 hour flight, I am in Hong Kong! I am frustrated with the internet - I cannot plug my computer into the adaptors I have, so I have to buy new converters tomorrow. I also cannot seem to get in touch with anyone or check my email other than my Gmail account (for some reason Google is the only site that works?) If you have sent me emails I have not received them - I have no clue if and when the internet will let me get to hotmail, so if you want, forward your emails to naloring@gmail.com
The flight wasn't as bad as it sounds - the meals were pretty good, it was open bar, and there were hundreds of movies. The flight attendants also handed out complimentary socks (?) We had to go through thermal body imaging to get into the country but luckily none of us had swine flu. The city itself is a little overwhelming - we were walking arround at midnight on a Monday night and the streets were so bright with neon it was like daytime. Flying into the city was gorgeous - the sky and clouds and water were all this inky blue, and there were pinpricks of light from the skyscrapers and boats, and it reminded me a little bit of the Peter Pan ride at Disney World. Except with swine flu.
More to come. Hoping that tomorrow will bring a plug and better internet for my computer, and an international phone so I can call my family and boyfriend! I miss you already :(

Hey Honey--Glad to hear your flight was good and everything went well with the transition into China! I wondered if you'd have trouble with the internet, but I wasn't thinking of adapter problems.
ReplyDeleteKansas was mad at me last night because I didn't feed her any canned food, so she went outside and killed a mouse right be the back door. When I went out to see what all the squeaking was, she bit the mouse's head off! Then she spit the rest of it out. I made her sleep outside after that. Write more soon! xoxo
Hi Sweetie,
ReplyDeleteAm so glad to know you arrived ok and are getting settled. The tour of the Univ should be fun.
Don't worry about the heat in HK it is very hot here also. Let us know what the temp is.
Papa and I got home from Fl Mon night and had a good flight. I was thinking of you and the long flight but sounds like you were entertained the whole trip... movies, food and good company. What else can a girl ask for?
Have fun tomorrow or today I think it is now.
Lots of love,
Grandma and Papa xxoo
