This is Cindy's friend, Lori. I am "guest blogging" today since their trip has been quite interesting thus far, and their internet access is pretty limited. I am no Cindy Brakman when it comes to wit and words, but at least I can catch you up on their trip up to this point!
So Day 1 would have been Thursday, November 8. The first leg of their trip was a quick flight to the Windy City. From there they boarded the LONG flight to Hong Kong.
For those of you that know Cindy, I find it amusing that she had to actually SIT for 16 hours! I am sure that was quite a challenge for her :-) Her words would probably be something like, "That was a long stinkin' time in a big metal tube!"
So then Day 2 would be Friday. Most of that day was travel for them, since by the time their plane landed in Hong Kong, it was already about 8:30 Friday night there. (They are 13 hours ahead of EST.) But they did arrive safely and headed to their hotel. After being awake for 26 hours straight, I am sure they both slept well!
However, when they woke up Saturday morning (Day 3), they discovered that their nice, big camera was no longer in their luggage. So back to the airport they went! Somewhere along the way they met a young man from New Zealand who had had his money and documents stolen. So as I type, they are trying to help him figure out what to do. Such a Bryce and Cindy thing to do...Always the helpful ones!
Apparently Bryce, with his new friend William, is finding this whole circus of a day quite amusing!
The plan for today (Saturday for them) is to go on a sky tram tour of Hong Kong and to see the giant Buddha......
Right after they buy a new camera!
Please keep Superman and LadyBug in your prayers! In about 48 more hours, their little world will be turned upside down! Although we know this is a good thing, it will probably be a very scary and confusing time for them!
