We left after saying good-bye to Serge & Nadine - thanks for the AWESOME time at the U2 concert the night before guys!!
We stayed with Nic for a few nights in her wonderful (almost!) restored qld'er with Xena & Lucy...
We also headed out to Mum & Dad's where the weather was a little unsettled!
It was great to see the family for a Christmas dinner at Tania's too, although it was in the dark due to the above mentioned weather! We then tried to launch London, but got nowhere... After spending another night at Nicole's we relauched out trip and made it to Hong Kong! It had been about 7 years since I'd been last and Maria had never visited so we stayed in a tiny room in Wan Chai and saw a few sights around town, namely the Night Markets over on Kowloon and we took a stroll around Lan Kwai Fong...
We were to late to make it too the peak so we had a few beers and headed to bead late. It was great to feel the hustle & bustle of hkg again, it was even better to be on the QF 29 bound for a snowy London! That was until 4 hours into the flight, when we turned around to go back to hkg! Bloody Heathrow couldn't get their act together & deal with a little snow so they closed & we had to go back. Weird. With nothing improved the next morning, we found some cheap tickets with El Al to Geneva via Tel Aviv which worked quite well for us so we finally made it!
