Pics of Hong Kong

Here are just a few of the things that we saw while in HK. We realy loved the pic of the lady eating at McDonalds with her chopsticks. Also you will notice that whoever is making the signs has a sense of humor. Of course, there is also the photographic evidence that they drive on the wrong side of the road. So it is not my fault that I almost got creamed. For over thirty years I have been trained to look left! - Frank

Hong Kong Again

Our initial one year visa is officially expired. In fact, it actually expired in December, but we got two one month extensions while we were waiting for the paperwork for our new visa to get processed. Tuesday, they were finally finished. All papers were stamp, signed, sealed and delivered. The next step is leaving the country. That is counter intuitive, I know. To stay in a country, you have to leave first, but that is the way it is. We had to go to the Chinese Consulate in Hong Kong to get the paperwork processed. Hence, the last minute trip. This time we will only be here a couple days, and then it is back to the Mainland. We are very excited about being able to take even this small trip, short though it may be, becuase we have realy been busy with school and teaching. Hong Kong here we come. Frank
