Post by: DOUG on October 19, 2012, 10:45:43 AM

What a trip. 

Shanghai tonight.

Can't wait to get home.

Food has been good.  So far Korean, Japanese, Taiwanese, and Chinese, and oh yeah, 1 company brought in KFC for lunch lol.

Rather be on rocks.

I doubt it.  Food has been awesome.  Family style... 10-12 folks, and a huge lazy susan with great choices, beef, chicken, fish, eel, shrimp, lots of veggies, etc.  Might have walked some off with 7 flights already since Saturday,

Great lunch today again.  Every meal has been different people and companies.

Had jelly fish, duck, fish, beef, other fish, and more.

Hong Kong is awesome. Too bad you could not see it in Dec. They have everyone of those buildings lit up with xmas decorations and animations. Crazy! Love to walk around at night out there too.

My first visit to HK was in the late 1980s, landing at the old airport.  The glide path to the runway passed between rows of high-rise apartment building built close to the airport boundary, and with a night arrival it was both spectacular and a little nerve-wracking.

The current airport is really nice, but quite a bit less dramatic.

Yup. I remember that. Flying between buildings... Always fun;)
