Hong Kong!!!!

hi everyone,
just a quick note to say i arrived in hong kong yesterday!! i had a great (and quick) flight, just 2.5 hours from BKK. daini & mara-- after take off a flight attendant came to me with a dish of food and said with an accent "you requested gelatin free meal, yes?" and i said "excuse me?" and again she said "gelatin free meal?"... i remembered back in january when i booked the flight there was an option for a gluten-free meal so i clicked for it. she put down an assortment of dishes all labeled "GF". 2 small fruit platters, broccoli, potatoes, salmon and even GF bread with butter. crazy!!
after getting my bag i took the express train from the airport to the hong kong station. nothing more exciting than stepping out to see a familiar face!! karlis was standing there and we both just started laughing! we went for a drink at an outdoor bar surrounded by ridiculously tall skyscrapers, right on the water where there are buildings all along the other side. music selection was choice! all in all a great first night in hong kong.
i'll write again later and try to post some pictures.
love,
lauma
