So I thought you guys back home might enjoy some random facts about China.
#1 There is Hong Kong Disneyland here.
#2 There is a Discovery bay here as well as in WA.
#3 Hong Kong is spread over two large islands and the mainland. Each area has it's own name, hence the name Discovery Bay. (They are like the equavalent of Ballard to Seattle.)
#4 Hong Kong is an extremely international city full of rich people.
#5 There are these dumb little bugs they call noseeums (no-see-ums) becasue you can't see them, but they bite worse than mosquitos.
#6 There are approx. 8 million people in Hong Kong and 1.3 billion in all of China.
#7 It is socially acceptable to point, stare, pick your nose, or pick a wedgie in public. (I haven't tried it, but I am tempted to.)
#8 I am sitting at this cute coffee shop at 6:45 in the morning drinking tea while the rest of my team sleeps.
Yeah I think that is all I can think of. I should add that I am dripping sweat onto the keyboard because the aircon in not on. Bye Alison! Love you guys!

Nice to hear from you Meg. Just a few random comments about your randomness. If Hong Kong is full of rich people, what are YOU doing there??. What did you discover in that bay, anyway? Those little bugs originated in Alaska where they are called------------------------------------------'noseeums'! Interesting indeed. Alison is gone, you are gone, and Muff will be gone soon. Life is good!!! Love DAD
I miss you so much....sounds really interesting over there. That's funny that even the elevators don't have a number four...my dad brought back chopsticks in sets of five because a set of four was bad luck. Can't wait to hear your stories in more detail. Love you tons, rruff rruff
You've been waiting for a place where you could fix your wedgie in public! Now you've found it!
