你好!
Currently I'm sitting at the Hong Kong International Airport, patiently awaiting my flight on Dragonair to Hangzhou. The airport is really nice and is quite large and roomy- doesn't feel crowded or stuffy at all, which is something I'm not used to with LAX. The only downside is it seems the internet only works on one side of the airport, and the power outlets for my computer to charge are on the other side. So, I have limited time but wanted to put in a little entry!
The flight left LAX about 1:45 PST and got in early in Hong Kong around 7:00 AM, their time. It was a really nice flight too! The selection of entertainment from my little TV was simply amazing- I've never had so many TV choices, movie choices and music choices! I watched three movies, including Kung-Fu Panda which was actually really entertaining.
After a bit of TV watching, reading and sleeping I finally graced the shores of Hong Kong! It was really beautiful to see the perfectly serene, flat water lapping along coast. The mountains were a really nice greeting as well when I stepped out into the heavily windowed airport- the clouds lazily rolling over the misty mountains is truly inspiring! You'd never see an airport quite like this in America... so I'm appreciating it all the more.
I also converted 15 dollars to buy me an adaptor and some food, and I still have leftover change. I'm REALLY appreciating that- in an airport in America, 15 bucks would only pay for the food!
Oh, and here you'll see Duma, my stuffed Cheetah, peaking out of my backpack. He's sort of my traveling partner... going wherever I go to be my 'back up'. I don't care how old I get, I'll never get too old for him!!
