Hunker Down

We got whipped around a bit today due to Hurricane Wilma.
Fortunately, we never lost power and we seemed to have
come through it just fine. This afternoon we transitioned from
the hurricane to chilly weather...nutty!

It's not a storm until there's a graphic!

Last Days in Hong Kong

Here are few things we did on my last couple days
before leaving Hong Kong.

I started the day by running an errand to TST (Marianne's).
Countdown clock down to zero in Hong Kong MTR Station.

We made a very late appointment!

Every treatment starts with a foot bath.

It's 2:11AM...are we relaxed or passed out?!

and ran some errands with Sherry.
