Chris' Birthday and other random bits

I still have photos from Japan that I want to add to the blog but also wanted to do a quick update on what has been going on back here in Hong Kong since I got back from Japan.


We celebrated Chris C's birthday last weekend.  A group of us went out for drinks and dinner, and it was really a typical Hong Kong night - one of the things I will miss most.  It was such nice weather to be out, and there were a million people at the bar we went to, spilling on to the street and up and down the escalator street.   And there are so many restaurants to choose from in our area.  We are spoilt for choice.





We took a trip out to Cheung Chau before school went back, as we hadn't been there for a while.  Such good harbour views from the ferry.

 
We wandered around the tiny shops before dinner, and thought these glasses were perfect on Chris...

 Another shot of our beautiful harbour.

Ok this is a bit random but someone found this in an overseas newspaper during the holidays and put it up in the staffroom.  I can't say I've ever seen an ad in Australia with wording quite like this.

I went out for lunch last weekend.  We were at the Police Club, which overlooks the water and has yummy dim sum!  Nice way to spend a few hours.

I'm about to cram in another adventure before my time here runs out - I'm off to Beijing tomorrow to finally see the Great Wall of China.  It's the last long weekend I have here :-(
