Red-headed stranger in a strange land

Thankfully the return trip to Hong Kong was much less eventful than the trip from Hong Kong to Denver. Other than mercilessly beating Jennifer with my rendition of "On the road again" not much happened. Fortunately for her, I don't have any Willie Nelson on my iPhone. One of these days I'll learn to prepare.

Speaking of not learning - we were up past 1:30 am the night before we left, and Jen got up at 5:00 to get ready. We both slept most of the way over here, which was fine since we've already exhausted the offerings of the in-flight entertainment center.

Hong Kong is easy, so far. There's a 7-11 and/or a Starbucks on every corner and we're staying in a Sheraton (yay, Starpoints!). We're going to ease into this, at least until we head to mainland China tomorrow. Then we've got two days in Beijing before we join up with the GAP people for our tour.

Of course that all assumes that we'll be able to get to China. Evidently there's a typhoon about to hit Hong Kong. Who knows, maybe this will become the de facto place to come for updates on Typhoon Hagupit.

In the meanwhile, I'll leave you with a picture of how I'll behave if we end up stuck here:
