Back from Hong Kong and Random Thoughts from Brett

We've returned from our week-long trip to visit Amanda and Nate in Hong Kong.  We had a blast and enjoyed spending time with family, seeing some sights and enjoying time together!  We'll post some pictures soon, until then, here's some Random Thoughts from Brett:

Immigration and Customs were much easier, cleaner and faster in Hong Kong than here in the US!  We were amazed by how organized and efficient everything was in Hong Kong.  For example, on escalators, it is an understood rule that if you just want to ride the escalator you stand to the right so that those who want to continue walking can do so on the left.  Also, the MTR (rail system) was very easy to navigate and use throughout the city.  Even though there are over 7 million people living in HK, everyone moves quickly and in an organized fashion so it's extremely easy to get around - even for international travel newbies like us!

Look for more on our trip AND pictures later this week!
