Keep up with us on our six month adventure to the other side of the world. We may have very well lost our minds, but that won't keep this from being the trip of a lifetime. We hope you'll join us!

JENNY RECREATING A CHRISTMAS CARD FROM THE EARLY YEARS While we have the majority of today left here in Hong Kong, I think we both feel like yesterday was our actual last day. We went over to the other side of Hong Kong Island to Repulse Bay, where Jenny and her family lived when she was a little girl. I got to see her old apartment building and get a feel for the area that holds so many fond memories for her. We also went to the Stanley Market I had been hearing so much about and found some nice last minute souvenirs. After that, we checked out the Fisherman’s Shrine which is a very elaborate set of mosaic statues right on the water. Really beautiful. It is also where one of the Immel’s early Christmas cards was taken and Jenny got to recreate at least a part of it. After that we took a ferry over to Lamma Island and went on an hour or so walk from one side of the island to the other. There where we enjoyed a wonderful last meal of salt & pepper prawns, calamari, scallops, and some other local cuisine. It was the perfect meal and the perfect setting for us to reflect together and soak it all in one last time.
