Getting To Hong Kong: With a 5 am limo pickup, we needed to be very well-organized the night before. Still, a few things were overlooked, but I think we covered nearly everything. It’s always surprising how much traffic there is at that hour. Quick transit through security, leisurely breakfast, and still at the gate with time to spare. Relaxing, the way we like it. An easy 4-hour or so flight to Vancouver, where transition to our departure gate for Hong Kong was quick and smooth.
Saturday, 9 Nov: There’s no way to dress up a 13 or 14 hour flight. The plane was full, so there was no spreading out. 3 meals broke up the monotony. Finally, tired and a bit sore, 26 hours after leaving home, we were in the very comfortable Hong Kong Sky City Marriott Hotel, and happily crawling into bed.[Larry: the flight was so monotonous that I watch movies that I wouldn’t admit to; the most restful respite and physical relief of stretching, was the washroom lineup – the longer the better]
