Jet Lagged

I sure did have a bad case of jet lag today as I tried to get back into the swing of things at work.  (sighing) vacation in Hong Kong was so much fun.............really and truly.

I blogged about how I squeezed in a little bit of work while in Hong Kong.  Here is the team I met with.  Aren't they a lovely group?

I wore flats to get to their office.  It took me 1 hour of walking and riding the subway to get to their 22nd floor.  Whew.............and then 1 hour of walking and riding the subway to get back to the hotel.  It was indeed an experience for me.

And so the unpacking and getting back to normal began.  Oh Dear Dear Dear - look at who jumped into the luggage.

Say What?

Remember this pic?  Well......these are the dryer sheets that have been used in my dryer.  I collect them and thought about what I could do with them. 



I figured out what to do with them.  Here is a peek:

Haven't figured out what the collection will be called but it will come to me.

Here is another design I drew out, cut, and sewed from Dryer Sheets

I am really excited about completing the dryer sheet dolls.  Hey!!! maybe that's what I'll name the designs

I love saving the earth.

That's it for now Blog Buddies.  Until next time I leave a pic of other dolls I'm working on.

I Missed My Pugs & Abbey

 Five days in Hong Kong were five days too long for my Puggies and Abbey.

I missed them so much.

We arrived home on Guam @ 4 a.m.  Needless to say I was jet lagged and tired so I layed down to sleep.

I slept so long that I am happy that I woke up on time to make it to the airport to pick up my 15 year old who flew in from Okinawa.

His team made 5th place in the Far East tournament.

 

We are all home safely - and back to normal we go.

 

Check out this pic.  I can't wait to share what I am doing with it.

Take care my blog buddies.

Sushi and New York Fries

This was the last vendor we patronized today before heading back to the hotel to relax and prepare for the next leg of our journey.

Wow, Kylie caught a view of this building we figured was an apartment unit.  Check out all them air cons.

Here is Tammy in the courtesy shuttle to the ladies market.  We were excited about going to shop for girlie things.

But first I had tummies to fill and we found this rotary sushi restaurant.  My kids and I love sushi.

The sushi was just the appetizers.

We wanted to try the New York Fries because we don't have this on Guam.  It was so so.

Pepper Lunch seem to have drawn a bulk of the mall meal goers.

The fries were hot and so so.

This ladies district was absolutely packed with people.  There were soooo many people.  Way too many that we just found our way out of that district back to the hotel.

As we waited for the bus - I took pics of 

Tam and Kylie

Lil and Zach

Me and my children

Zach and his nieces

Look at this Chines Peep

Whoap Whoap - It's Lil

So as Kylie had taken photos of tall building with aircons.

I took a photo of this tall building.

Our trip is coming to an end here in Hong Kong.  I have one more business meeting tomorrow.  Kids are heading back down to Harbour City.  Then I meet up with them later on to pack up and head to the airport.

Until then my blog buddies - I'll Blog from Guam.

Day 3 in Hong Kong

Last night I saw the first Chinese person with a TAT since being here in Hong Kong.

Check out Zach shopping away in Harbour City.

Check out Lil with her funky socks.

Check out McDonald's ice crean and McFloat walk up stand.  Wow we need this in Guam

I got a kick out of McDonald's delivery service on mopeds.

This morning it was back to business  I had my first experience riding the Hong Kong MTR that took me to the business district.

This is one of the Toyota Service Centers.  It is so small compared to ours in Guam.

After my meeting, I rode the MTR back to the hotel and gathered the kids to flag a taxi.

We headed for the toy district

Check out Zach's shark book bag that he bought.

We had so much fun in the toy district that we got lost.

In this pic we read the map wrong and headed deeper into the city.

Deeper

I was a bit worried here.

We were being swallowed by buildings and vendors.

So we looked at the map again.

And again.

Ahh yes landmarks I can recognize and a relief look comes upon me.

A relief look comes upon Zach

A relief look comes upon Lil.

Yes we found our way back to the hotel.

WHAT AN ADVENTURE!!!
