Hong Kong

                                 

I feel so blessed to have the opportunity to take my kids to my favorite city in the world, Hong Kong. Our trip started off a little rocky, the flight was delayed seven hours due to bad weather in Hong Kong. I was impressed with our air carrier service, Dragonair, they provided tuna fish sandwiches and drinks for all of the passengers waiting.
Once we got to Hong Kong we went to bed and the next morning we went to OceanPark, a theme park with some animals. Due to rain in the morning it was not crowded so we could walk onto most rides and got to see jellyfish, pandas and other animals.
We went to the Night Market and Jade Market, which was fun and stopped by to visit the outside of the LDS Hong Kong temple.  We went to an hour of church and ran into some old friends. It is always good catching up with friends.The kids really liked visiting Monkey Hill, a natural reservoir that is overrun with monkeys.
Hong Kong has changed a lot in the ten years since we lived there. A lot of the small, mom and pop restaurants we loved have closed and it seemed like it was not as affluent as before.
