Hey Ladies, Well we made is back safe and sound. It was a very LONGGGG plane ride..And we are still haveing some issues with getting back on the right time..We had to work the first week and my husbad had 4 newspaper interviews and 2 TV interviews. He also was pictured with Miss Hong Kong.. There are 70 malls in Hong Kong, and it isnt that large. We went on bus tour and it was greaet. Saw all the major sites in Hong Kong City and then got to go on a ferry ride across the bay to a market..It was great. We got some greaet deals on neat stuff. Our dollar is not worth alot over there...Actually it is only worth 17 cents. But we got some good deals on a pair of chocolate pearl earrings...They were 50HK dollars...so do the math..and the jade was really cheap. Most of the markets we went to you can haggle with them...so we did. The food was great except with some of the Dim Sum...and my DH tried fried chicken feet...But I didnt. One of the Dim Sum dishes had fish belly in it...Neither one of us ate that..it was great and my DH was asked if he would like to come back again. The company that got in contact with him to do this are in charge of 3 malls. So they might get him to go back next yr and be at another mall. It would be great if we could.

Wonderful! I am so glad that you had such a fun time. I remember you were a bit nervous about the trip. I am so jealous! I would love to visit China some day!!
