  Time flies when you are having fun! So, we had an option in Japan to go on an earlier flight to Hawaii and of course, I took it!

So, we arrived in Hong Kong, missing 6 hours of sleep! Tired but very exited! The landscape is very beautiful and everything is very clean! 6 Of our group went to a village nearby to paint some center and the rest stayed in Hong Kong. The public transport is good and we were so surprised when we arrived at Sing Mun Springs. It is nice and well organized.   For you guys at home who know me will not be surprised that I already had my first shopping experience – NOT clothes, but food for breakfast and lunch for the...
