Viajero It’s lovely. We are getting colder at home so nice to see the sun (when not completely smoggy!)
I’m sure Macy would definitely have been in great demand for selfies, but what has Tate done with his hair????? [Sally]
Viajero He is putting fancy blonding on it so he sticks out I think! He is popular here!

Viajero Today is our 2nd day in Hong Kong. We were up at 6am and boys off to the gym and pool. I find it stressful being in the gym with little boys so went while they were in the pool. After that we went to go on the Ngo Ping 360 that was pretty scary. Enjoyed seeing the Buddha at the top- lost Tate for 5 minutes but other than that was a successful trip. The gondola was pretty scary- so high up and very windy. Then off to the street in Mong Kok to look for the fish. There is a whole street with just fish, turtles and all sorts of other animals. Was super cool. Then wandered to find the laundromat and now back home to have a swim and then drink. We have to leave early in a couple of days so keeping up with NZ time.
Sounds like you’re having a blast 😊 [Sally]
