We're in Hong Kong!

Hello Everyone!

Chris here. After a 14 hour flight from LAX, Sarah, Kevin, and I have safely arrived in Hong Kong for our layover! Although the flight was pretty lengthy, we filled our time with movies, Friends episodes, Who Wants to Be A Millionaire trivia, and thankfully a decent amount of sleep.

We are presently almost halfway done with our 13 hour layover in Hong Kong. Time is the only thing stopping us from arriving at our final destination-Kathmandu, Nepal. To pass the time, Kevin, Sarah, and I tried to go into downtown Hong Kong. However, when we saw how expensive it was to travel outside of the airport, we decided it would be better to stay on the same island as the airport. So, to save some cash, we took the train to the AsiaWorld Expo Center to find exactly what one would expect to find in a convention center. Nevertheless, Hong Kong has some beautiful scenery so we stepped outside and walked to a local hotel.

Something that has filled our lives as of lately is the card game Bohnanza. Of course, we brought it with us, and of course, we played it at the hotel. Not surprisingly, Kevin ended up winning.

As for now, we are anxiously waiting for our flight to Kathmandu back at the Hong Kong International Airport. We are safe (That was for you, Mom) and we appreciate your thoughts and prayers as we await this amazing adventure! Please keep praying for us.
