10 Days in


IMG_2621
It's crazy that it's been only ten days since we moved to Hong Kong because I feel like we've been here so much longer. I wrote way too much on the first journal, so I'm just going to recount two interesting happenings.
First, Hank finally made it to HK, but he was six days late. He made it to Amsterdam from Atlanta without his papers because another dog similar to him gained his papers. Amsterdam wouldn't send him on to HK, so he had to fly back to Atlanta to get checked out by another vet before he could fly into Hong Kong. He made it here Thursday night with another dog's crate and dog bed, which are both pretty nice. He's lost a little wait but he seems happy.
Second, Ellis and Forrest started school on Thursday (one day late because of the typhoon on Wednesday). They got on the "school bus" together, but Ellis had to stay after school on Thursday and got on later than Forrest did. The bus runs at three different times after school lets out to allow students to do after school activities and still have a ride home. At any rate, Ellis got on the wrong bus and rode it all the way until the last stop, where he got off (he said he knew pretty quickly he was on the wrong bus, but said nothing) and walked to Stanley Plaza, and then hopped on another bus and made it home. We were quite proud of him. Forrest is already navigating the taxis and buses by himself, which is also exciting!
