Melanie and I just got back from Hong Kong today and we’re really happy to be back. As great of an experience China was, it’s always nice to be home again. Expecially me, since I’ve been gone for 2.5 weeks. We were so happy to see our Tobi Tobi! The only bad thing about being back is Melanie and I are fighting off sickness. I ate something bad our last 2 days in China that definitely didn’t agree with my stomach and Melanie thinks she’s getting sick. I guess there’s always a good chance of that happening when you travel. Anyways, we’re happy to be home again and just in time for my Grandmothers 95th birthday this weekend.
If you haven’t looked lately, all our pictures from China have been posted. My ISP (Internet Service Provider) has been moving servers, so if the site isn’t up when you check, just come back and check again.
So I’ve been trying a lot of desserts in China. As of this afternoon, it was this dessert called hot pudding. Pretty much it’s tapiocca pudding, with red bean in the middle, then carmelized sugar on top like a creme brulee. It’s served warm and very yummy.
I ate at a Vietnamese restaurant tonight and ordered this drink that I thought was juice, it was labeled “Mango, AloeVera, and Mint drink” It came out and OH was it yummy! It’s an exotic Icee, pretty much the bottom is Mango slushy, Top is Mint, then there’s these cubes that taste like lychee, but I guess they’re aloe vera. Check out the pic.
Anyways, one more day until Melanie get’s out there to enjoy this wonderful food with me. I’ve added some new pics to food and 2 pictures to Shenzhen if you’re interested.
So I’m back to the second day of the grind, but I had a really good weekend. I caught up with my old friend Eric, who pretty much got me my first job at NHT. Eric live here on Hong Kong Island and has a great place and is a fellow Porsche owner. Pretty much we ate well, drank, and watch some movies on his killer home theater.
I’ve posted some new pics if you want to check them out.

So I’ve waken up at 4 am, since I couldn’t sleep. Checked some e-mail and added more pics from my China trip. I’m spending most of my time in China (vs. Hong Kong), I’ve taken more pictures of ShenZhen where I’m working, check out the ShenZhen section if you want to see some new pics with me actually in them.

So I had my first day of crossing borders from Hong Kong to China, all-in-all it’s not too bad. I’ve added new pictures I took to day.

I also found out my dog Tobi is famous over here in Hong Kong
That’s it for now, it’s been a long day…
So it’s been a hectic 2 months and one of the many reasons you haven’t seen a blog here in a while. To summarize, here’s what happened:
-Melanie and I moved to a new place
