Well this was our last stop of our great adventure and cant say I am ready to go home yet. We left Phuket at about 12.20pm and the trip to Hong Kong is about 3 and a half hours and we had the daycare plane - there were babies everywhere you looked and they just let them walk up and down the aisle and kick our seats and cry lots so fair to say we were happy when this flight was over. We walked about 5 miles to get through Hong Kong airport and had to catch a train - yes you heard right - a train to get our luggage and then we poured into a Taxi to our Hotel. We were staying at the Harbour Plaza Metropolis and what a gorgeous hotel it was. When we booked in I asked about the Laser show and what time it would be on and she advised that we would not see it from our room but we could be upgraded for $88 and have a full view of show. We were on the top floor - the 21st floor and on the lifts going up you could see outside - freaky! We watched the laser show which was a bit of a fizzle due to the weather and then Tim and I headed into downtown to have dinner and see what we could buy while the kids stayed and watched DVD's from Phuket. Had dinner at the Outback Steakhouse - yummy - then went and bought a new camera - cos we needed one! The next day we had brekkie at the hotel and then did some last minute shopping - phone for Tim and PSP's for the kids. Spent more in Hong Kong in less than 24hours than we did in London and Phuket. Home to Perth on a 3pm flight - 7hours on the plane and got home at 10.30pm. We were tested for our temperature for Swine flu but we made it through ok. The end of a wonderful adventure and now time to save for the next one.
