New Home

It is official - we have a residence in Hong Kong as of Wednesday.

Here is my exit photo from the temporary housing - a line of suitcases that were taken to the new place.




About an hour later this is what was happening in the new place.

Bedroom #1 - Trundle bed, but I am not sure how it will work - I needed to close the door to bring the bottom mattress out to make the bed later.



Bedroom #2 - Closet.  Unlike the US where there must be a closet in the room for it to be considered a bedroom - not in Hong Kong.  Good Luck finding a place for your clothes, thus a bedroom becomes a closet.



Bedroom #3 - Master Bedroom.  Apparently a footboard is not common in Hong Kong as there is exactly 11 inches between the wall and the bed.  A little tight.



Thursday I went to China.  On the way there via ferry I peeked out the window and saw the island I was on the other weekend.



Friday's highlight was internet.  It is fiber, and what a difference it makes.



Most of Friday was me watching the ferries come and go from the China Hong Kong port (where I left the day before)



The view out the window of our new place makes up for some tight spaces - it is totally distracting.



This next picture highlights the end of my week - emptied a tissue box.  From when the movers left until last Sunday afternoon - I was under the weather (got above long enough for the trip to China) - congestion and low grade fever.  



So every night now from 8:00 - 8:14pm we have the light show to entertain us.  I tried to video some Saturday night.  There is music that accompanies the show, but not in our apartment.




Ventured out Sunday morning for more latte art.
