HK, Beijing and Singapore... with the Chans (minus one or three)


I know this is out of chronological sequence... but since I have been lazy, this is the best I could possibly do.

In March of 2011, Jessica and I travelled to Hong Kong to meet up with Kit Wah, Karen and Derek. We spent 3 days in Hong Kong and then from there we travelled to Beijing. We spent 6 days in Beijing and then the Chans returned to Singapore with us.

In combination of a few of our cameras, there are were more than 1,000 photos taken. However, since Picasa only allows me to upload 1,000 photos into one album, that's what I have done. You can find all 999 photos here.

In Hong Kong, we visited Kit Wah's old "hood". He has not been back for more than 25 years. So, it was really an experience for him . And he got to show Derek and Karen where he grew up.

My HOOD!! It has changed!

Kit Wah's old hood.

And then he showed us the "doctor" his mom had sent him to... you can still find them under the bridge...

Kit Wah calls them "witch doctors"


The most interesting that happened to us during this trip... was Kit Wah and I got food poisoning. I was knocked out for an entire day and a half and he was knocked out for 2 and half days. It was bad. I swear it was either coming out the front or back every 10 minutes.










Other than that, we did the usual tourist stuff... Great Wall, Forbidden Square, Summer Palace, etc.

In Singapore, the Chans stayed with us. And all the ex-Ducks helped with entertaining and hosting them.
