425. ASIA

Hello from Hong Kong!! So we have spent the past several days in Beijing, and got here to Hong Kong last night. As I said in my previous post..I had been planning to do daily blog posts. Unfortunately, China had pretty much everything blocked (Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, WhatsApp, Gmail & most importantly..my blog) so I was unable to come online as often as I had hoped, and to update my blog. I was able to come on someimes with my roaming plan (in exchange for a huge phone bill waiting for me back home). Now in HK, I am finally able to come on again but I have a LOT of Beijing posts to catch up on. I had an amazing time, I wish we could've spent more time there.

It's really late now and I have to sleep soon, but I wanted to give you a quick update. Here's the photos taken before the flight and as we were landing...I will try to start today on daily posts!!


Before this, its been over a year since I have gone on an international flight/in the international departures at Pearson Airport..so I'm not sure how new this area is. It definitely didn't look like this when I was here in 2013. I really like the new look and all the seating & iPads.











The flight from Toronto to Beijing was about 13 hours. Surprisingly, the time passed by pretty fast. I had been prepared for a long boring flight. We flew over the Arctic and I was able to get some shots of the amazing view.

After landing, we drove about 2 hours in traffic before arriving at our hotel. The lobby was beautiful..it smelled really nice in there too. I'll do a full post on it in a future post!
