Hong Kong Airport

Well, we figured out how to invite everybody else to post on the blog, so tonight there will be posts from everybody, I think.

We bought a Diet Coke at a random stand in the airport and thus get to use their Internet before we fly to Singapore in about a half an hour. Should be interesting.

It's hot as hell here. And humid. Sweating is the norm. Heavily.

Last night we had Indian food on the third floor of a random apartment building. We were accosted as we walked in by four different restaurants, and chose as we saw fit. It was pretty good food and an interesting atmosphere.

All told, we each spent about $50 (not counting hostels -- $11/night) in Hong Kong, I believe. Not bad.

Not sure that I could ever live here, but really glad that we came. Pretty unbelievable.

Yesterday we took a ferry to an island near Hong Kong Island (Lan Tau) and saw a big Buddha after a pretty serious bus ride with some crazy views.

Tonight, hopefully we'll get some pictures up on the blog tonight. Love to all.
