We flew from Sapporo to Osaka and then on to Hong Kong, this time on Vanilla Airline. Actually it was a nice flight, but again with the super tight seat pitch. We got to Christa's house at about 3:00 am, tired puppies.
We enjoyed the next week just hanging out at the house with Christa and the kids, taking the kids to soccer lessons, the Science Museum, and a special day for Meryl and I tracing our old stomping grounds in Kowloon when Meryl used to fly to Hong Kong in the 70s and 80s.
Rather than a long narrative, we'll let the pictures tell the story. I do have to start, however, with this photo from the baggage claim area in Osaka.

In Hong Kong, 3-year-olds go to school for 1/2 day everyday. Quinn walks to a bus stop where a mini school bus picks her up, with a bus mother supervising the kids on the bus. |

On the home front, Conner keeps everyone on their toes. He has radar eyes for anything that looks like an iPhone. One of these days he's going to buy a Ferrari on eBay without anyone knowing. |

The Chinese like their food fresh and its common to find restaurants with huge fish tanks outside. That's dinner you're looking at. |

With a large ex-pat population, local grocery stores have a surprising good selection of foods. |

After a long day shopping one of our absolutely favorite things to do is to get a foot massage. The best! |
