My flight ended up being delayed last night because of typhoon Ondoy so instead of leaving at 5pm I ended up taking off at 6:30 and then landing in Hong Kong at about 9:10. We ended up sitting at the unloading dock waiting and waiting for our external power to be hooked up so we could get off the plane, finally we switched to a different area and they still couldn't do it. They ended up killing the engines and letting the emergency power come on, then manually opening the door. The attendants looked a little confused on how to open the main hatch, which was a little concerning...
Today we had a school group come in ready for 3 days and 2 nights with us just doing support for them and the teachers taking care of the activities. However, because of Ondoy they ended up staying just for the day and rescheduling for another time. So we just watched Nimh's Island while i took a nap, hehe. Then it was time for us to run an hours worth of games with the kids and most of them seemed to enjoy playing in the rain. After the games we rolled in to an early dinner and then it was off to the bus to catch the 6:10 fast ferry back to central. We didn't have any cleanup to do so we ended up going home. A pretty good start to work after a week of vacation. I'm busy installing a new version of Ubuntu or else i'd have my pictures up. I'll install Picasa soon and get them uploaded...
Hi Adam- I saw there was a typhoon and great flooding going on in the Philippines- wasn't sure if it was affecting you where you were. Thankful all went well for you-getting to HK and getting out of the plane (yikes!). Thanks for the entry today. I had checked your blog before you put it up this am. I am reading it now at work. Our trip to see Austy went well. We had a little picnic in one of the sports fields then he showed Karen around. We took a quick spin to a music shop to see and play a couple guitars as well as a banjo. After that we met Erin's family and went to eat at an Asian buffet. We had a good time-it was nice to see Aust and Erin. Glad your first day back was calm. Talk to you soon-Love Mom
ReplyDeleteHi Adam-I guess we have been on a vacation from the computer. Papa and I have been on the run between here and the lake. Working at home during the day and staying at the lake nights. My time for the computer is at night. Things are back on schedule. The bathroom fix up is about done-The temperature is to fall well below the 30's tonight. A few snow flurries are predicted-Send us some heat. We sure can use it. Enjoyed catching up on your blog-pictures are awesome. Thank you for sharing them. You sound great-enjoy your comments. Take care Adam and keep safe. Love you-Nana & Papa C
