So we finally made it! After 1 month in Muskoka, 1 month in Nashville, and stops through LA, Toronto and NYC we're finally in Asia!
Not much to report so far, the flight wasn't that bad at all even though it was 15 hours and 27 minutes. (But this is coming from someone who is 5 Foot 5 ...you might want to ask Andrew what he thinks...I admit watching Andrew sit down in that chair was conjuring up Tommy Boy "Big Guy in a little Coat" memories). The in-flight TV was great...In addition to watching E! to catch up on my celebrity gossip I caught Evan Almighty, part of Pirates of the Caribbean and part of 1408. Which by the way I turned on because I love John Cusack and was thinking "Oh is this some sort of cute romantic comedy? That's just what I'm in the mood for." Not quite..I had no idea that it's a horror movie and a very scary one at that. I decided to turn it off when the flight attendent tapped me on the shoulder to open my window shade and I almost screamed and jumped a foot out of my seat. Quite embarassing.
Other than that, customs was surprisingly easy and we met up with Cam, Andrew's brother, shortly after we arrived at our hotel. We're staying at the http://hongkong.eatonhotels.com/ and it's very nice, with a very small but 'efficient' room (which I always appreciate). For instance, we have a desk, but the top flips up into a mirror so it can be a vanity! I love these sorts of things. But I have a feeling this will be one of the nicer hotels we'll be staying at on this trip....Andrew insisted on it so he could have time 'acclimate.' (he's a bit of a wuss).
Anyways, We think our first stop is going to be Hong Kong and then to Cambodia....as long as the Vietnamese Embassy cooperates today. Talk to you all soon and miss you already!!! Pictures to come...
