Day...February 1st - last stage of journey....left Guangzhou, arrived HK
sorry guys no photos this evening....not sure in which suitcase to find the cables!
Rob went off to get the visa this morning at 8 so I spent the morning doing breakfast ...final shopping and real haggling in the last few hours before making a dash to the supermarkets to get Nelly the Rice Milk that we mix with her formula - we will change what she eats when she gets back as the Chinese formula is full of sugar...but hey at the moment it is easier to keep with it just like the dummy!
I then raced back through the scorpion market in time to say goodbye to Julia and Tim and family, it was so special to have spent really precious moments with them these last few days and we hope to see them and their lovely boys on Nelly's birthday party ..
so then we were off to the airport to check in for our 6 30 flight, she crawled all around the gate ...exhausted herself chomped on yet another teething biscuit....,the flight was packed and we were all prepared with food and milk to feed to Nelly on the way up - she was fine after the milk even though we finished that before take off! but then because the flight was only 40 minutes once we were up ... we were on our way down and that was when the trouble started! scream ...scream ...scream ... she did...but then fell fast asleep on my shoulder and did not wake until we got into a cab in Hong Kong!
checked into the hotel at about 9 with our small sleeping baby and we had our room upgraded to one on the top floor with a fabulous harbour view straight across to Kowloon . Nelly slept in the buggy for an hour while we ate our room service supper...
She is still the most adorable baby - God I bet you are getting bored of reading that but it is true!!!!!!!!!
Tomorrow - up for breakfast and then the day pottering around Kowloon etc ...the view from opur room is fab and Nelly loves lights so she is in for a treat tomorrow night! then a long flight home....
a demain .....
