Grand Adventure 2017 Day 10: The Big Tour
Most of the time Jenn and I like to try to slow it down on our last day in a city, but that just wasn't meant to be the case in Hong Kong. We originally booked todays tour to Lantau Island for two days back but we got word two weeks ago that the cable cars that operate on Lantau Island were down for maintenance. That left us with touring today, our final day in Hong Kong; and although not ideal was well worth the wait.
Grand Adventure 2017 Day 9: The Happiest Lines on Earth
Today was easily in my top five most anticipated days of the trip. Why you ask? Because we went to Disneyland Hong Kong. Jenn and I love Disneyland. We had an annual pass for three years back home and nearly three years ago to the day we went to Disneyland in Paris. We knew on this trip we had to go to Disneyland in either Hong Kong or Tokyo but given our schedule in Tokyo we elected to go with Hong Kong. Plus it gives us yet another reason to go back to Tokyo.
Grand Adventure 2017 Day 8: Peak Cuisine
Some days like yesterday we didn't have a ton going on so I like to go more in-depth with what happened, today was jam-packed busy so I'll skip the preamble and get into it. We got a great night sleep last night which was good because we needed the energy. I worked out in the beautiful gym here at The Langham and we were off on the road at 9 AM.
Grand Adventure 2017 Day 7: Smoggy Foggy
This morning was tough. After five spectacular days in Tokyo, today was our last. We woke up at 3:30 AM (that's not a typo) and were out of the hotel by 4 AM to check out. It wasn't easy but we somehow groggily packed away the last couple of items and were off. Originally we had planned to just jump on the subway to Haneda International Airport, a short thirty minute subway ride. That was until we saw it didn't start running until 5:30 AM which would have made us miss our flight.
