My parents, my sister, Marie, and my niece, Amanda made the huge journey to Hong Kong in the middle of May! It was great to have a piece of home in Hong Kong! They picked a great week weather wise. The day they left Hong Kong, it rained for 2 days straight. You will see from the pictures that we were able to hit all the highlights of greater Hong Kong in the one week they were there. I had Buddha's birthday off, May 12, the day they arrived. I also was able to take one personal day while they were here. We went to the old colonial Pennisula Hotel for high tea one afternoon, we took the Star Ferry, we took the tram ride up to the Peak and had dinner overlooking the lights of the city, we went to an international contemporary art show, we road taxis and double decker busses, we went to the Big Buddha, we went out for a Chinese dim sum lunch, and of course they shopped in the Stanley Market behind my house. The week went very fast! I can't believe I am at the end of the school year here and will see everyone soon! Summer is coming! Martha's Vineyard representatives are coming here in 2 weeks!
