Hong Kong

Here I am! I'm on our third day in Hong Kong, after we arrived Monday afternoon. The whole family is here with me for a few weeks before they drop me off in Beijing, and we started our trip in Hong Kong. It's definitely as excitign as I remembered it. It seems that there is more Chinese spoken here than last time, and Western influence seems much less. My dad is sick and at the hospital right now (he'll be ok) so Felice and I went out shopping. Oh, that sounds terrible. Really, he just has to pick up some more medicine, and they wanted Felice and I to have a good time, so we did some exploring of our own. We meant to go to a temple in town for the local gods, but we got sidetracked. We eventualy made it to teh temple, but only after some serious purchases. The prices are really good here. Obviously. Shoes as far as the eyes can see. You'd think that would make me happy. Shoes. Eve loves shoes. Shoes for 12, 13 dollars. Yeah, but it turns out I have big feet. Really big feet. Freak show feet. Oh, well. It's just not pretty to see their grimaces when I ask for a size 40. ON the bright side, I'll save some money, and Ron always says I need more shoes like I need a hole in my head.
I have to think of something else smart to write, but the pollution is really getting to my brain. I'll write more maybe tomorrow, after I've had an exciting afternoon. Bye!
