Hong Kong

Flight to Hong Kong

Flight with Qantas was pretty good, we had the side seats so only two on each side with four in the middle. We had had breakfast in the airport before we left as it would have been a rush at the motel even though it was included in the price. Also though that it would fill in some time. I had forgotten though how expensive it was to eat at the airport!

Lunch on the plane wasn’t served until about two o'clock and we realised that we had not ordered gluten free. Warren chose the lamb and I had the stir fried pork with fried rice. There was a nice Cherry, coconut and chocolate mousse for afters. I watched the movie Paper Planes even though it is a kids movie, I enjoyed and it was interesting to see how many actors appeared in it. I started to watch a doco about sugar but couldn’t keep my eyes open.

Landed around 6.30pm and by seven we were looking for our bus to go to the hotel. Our instructions were to go to B04, we were in A so we pulled our bags into B section and then Warren saw a sign Tour buses so we trundled around there and saw B and numbers BUT they were only in odd numbers. Asked at an Info desk and we directed back to terminal 1 (where we had come from).

Still couldn’t see any numbers so asked again and were pointed to the direction where we had been going in the first place only to find small boards with the numbers facing away from us and there finally was B04. A bit of waiting around as there were others to come and then an hour trip to hotel, I know that it did say the hotel was twenty six kilometres and of course there were other people to drop off on the way.

Room is comfy was ever so small, I measured the bed side tables and bed head and I estimated that one wall is two metres wide and then there is a diagonal window and a desk is in there. Its functional and clean.

Internet is $140 for 24 hours consecutive use!!!! We are going to find a Starbucks to check emails etc.
