Well, we're here writing our last blog entry at Hong Kong international airport (our flight is a bit delayed!). How strange to be heading back home to "normal" life after so long away. Luckily we have exciting things to look forward to when we head back...Anita's wedding, Christmas oh and planning a wedding and buying a house!

Hong Kong has been fun. We easily got into the way of life of wandering through shopping centres at 11pm at night, buying random things at night markets (we hope people like their christmas presents!!) and eating seafood at restaurants on street corners.

We also managed to fit in a few sites aswell - views of the whole of Hong Kong from the Peak, temples, Chinese walled garden (once we actually found the right garden), the giant
Buddha and monastry on Lantau Island, the symphony of lights show and the well known Hong Kong attraction - Disney Land!

Another truly Hong Kong experience that we had was buying a tailor made suit each! We're waiting for them to send us our suits (despite several fittings and "come, come quickly"s) so fingers crossed we'll actually have something that fits in the end.

Well, I think its probably time for us to start heading towards our gate. Hopefully the flight won't be delayed by much more. We'll get some photos up when we're back in London. We took some cool ones when we were snorkelling!

So this is Amy and Simon signing out! xx
