Yes folks, it's our favorite time of year - CHRISTMASTIME!
The temp is a chilly 75 degrees Fahrenheit; the Locals have taken their furs out of cold storage; the streets and malls are decorated with lights, fake snow window designs and tacky tinsel; and even here at the Linerez flat, we've taken to sprucing up a bit for the holiday season. We have a "Charlie Brown" totally fake Christmas tree:
We hung our stockings by, uh, the TV with care:
And most importantly, we spent the entire weekend in Shenzhen buying fake goods for everyone on our Christmas lists. Let's hope we don't get detained by customs entering the U.S. with our loot!
We're off to Bali on Friday, so we'll have pictures from our next adventure up soon. Then, we're coming HOME for Christmas and New Year's! While we love living in Hong Kong, we miss our family and friends dearly and it just wouldn't be the holidays without a good 2-week dose of our crazy kinfolk. We can't wait!
