Well as should have been expected, I have had no opportunity to update prior posts with text, and the missing days are just that at this point. Mike has not yet worked on his Hong Kong photos, but we had a wonderful reunion dinner with Simon (one year later!). And we spent yesterday touring the city - the tram ride up to the Giant Buddha was incredibly long and quite an experience. And the Buddha and other sites atop were equally impressive. And of course a bit more last minute shopping.
But, we are on our way up to our room for our final pack here at the Eaton Hotel in Hong Kong. My current intentions are to fill in the gaps upon our return home (although our 'to do' list once we get back continues to grow).
Our flight leaves this afternoon - and that is our year away from Canada on it's last leg. We'll be back in our own beds tonight (taking into account that we cross the international date line and repeat today - so it's one VERY long day!). And at some point during our trip, our plane will cross paths with Theresa who returns home to Australia from Canada simultaneously. Unfortunately we won't get to meet again at the end of the year, but we are glad that we met at the start at least.
To everyone on the Canadian end of this blog - it will be great to see you all soon! And to everyone on our travels, thanks once again for your more overwhelming hospitality.
If we have learnt anything over this year, it is that despite all our differences, people everywhere are all 'good souls' and we have much more in common than could ever be imagined.
