Yes, we had a trip to Hong Kong, good guess, bet you feel clever now? Sorry that was mean.
Dave, Cooper and I took a trip to Hong Kong in Nov 06, Dave went for work, I went for shopping, Cooper went as he is still a breast fed babe and couldnt live without me. awwwww.
The trip was great, love Hong Kong and will oneday return with all 3 kids in tow to do HK Disneyland and Ocean Park. Not too mention more shopping.
Hong Kong really dresses up for Christmas. Just beautiful, nothing like the piddly little decorations erected by our town. Shopping malls are full of brightly coloured decorations, massive tree's, garlands of bells and bows and baubles. Very festive and it was hard not to be caught up in the excitement of Christmas, even if it was still mid November.
Besides shopping and swimming we really didnt do a lot in HK that is worth noting. Two things however do stand out, the first being something we found in a McDonalds store.
We didnt eat there, I refuse to visit a new country and eat the same old rubbish dished out by global convenience. Although one day when we could find absolutely no where else to eat and were ratty at each other due to hunger we did get lunch there, BUT we ordered the local version which was a rice type patty with "flavour" inside. Very tasty I must admit. On the other occasion we visited but did not eat at we discovored that they had a free internet service for their customers - YES free! I think perhaps the idea was to buy something and actually become a customer? Free internet who isnt going to use it, I know I did :).

My living memory of life with my 3 boys. Kids really do say some funny things. I didnt record the funny quips my eldest said and now I have forgotten them which is sad. I'm not making the same mistake again, hence the blog.
