Hitting the Streets - Saturday and Sunday, June 5th and 6th, 2004

We spend a couple of days in Hong Kong and Kowloon decompressing from the long flight and gathering ourselves for the experience of a lifetime. It's a beautiful place on the other side of the world filled with great people, interesting sights, stark contrasts and thousands of years of history.With the luxurious Shangri-La Hotel as our home base in Kowloon we spend time touring Victoria Peak, riding a Sampan between stranded fishing boats, and shopping in popular Stanley Market. A lot of interesting things to see and do to keep us distracted for a bit ...NOT!! ...no matter what we do here we're all grounded by the fact that we'll be getting our daughters very soon. After all is said and done we're back at the airport anxiously waiting for Gotcha Day. Another flight after a long delay and the simple sight of a crib in our room gives us reason to not sleep. We're almost there!

In a matter of hours we'll have Lilyana Ya Ying in our arms...
