Wednesday Afternoon Hiking

As with most of our Wednesdays, we took our after school hike from Ma On Shan over the mountain into Sai Kung. It’s always such an amazing time with these women even though it’s something we do over and over. It’s a great way to clear the mind and to […]

Return to Madness…

US vs HK It’s such an interesting thing. We were able to spend about a month in the US. When we arrived, it was a bit of a shock because almost no one wore masks. My parents did in crowded places like when they picked us up in the airport. […]

In a holding pattern…

Touch down in Hong Kong on 2nd August 2022 (Tuesday) We arrived at our hotel just around lunch time. We were staying at a hotel that has multiple of the same name just in Hong Kong alone. It is strange because service is varied among these locations. You would think […]

Free at Last!

Once we were sure no one else was going to get sick and tested negative, I went to see M. We only went to her house for dinner and went for a hike. It had been such a long time since M and I had been able to see each […]
