When I woke up, a delicious smell drew me to the kitchen. Carrie had baked home made cinnamon rolls to make Catherine feel a little better and to thank Thomas and Sabina. While we were eating, I looked through a Hong Kong travel book reading off all of main attraction to Hong Kong. Checking if we had missed anything or if there was still something I really wanted to do. Alex was invited to stay at her friends for the rest of that day because they were having a bbq. This made Catherine very upset, but she didn’t make a big fuss about it. So we decided to go to Stanley market one last time, go to dinner, and watch a movie at home. We quickly went back to Sabina’s to drop off some clothes for Alex and the cinnamon rolls, which Alex was ecstatic about. Poor Catherine had to sit in the car while all the kids ran up from playing to have some. When we left with Catherine still with us after she asked numerous times to stay we reminded her that Alex had to do this the other day too and we were going to go shopping for some new dresses. She still wasn’t too excited.
At Stanley we all split up; Frank went to the rugby t-shirt place, Catherine and Carrie went to eat and get clothes for her, and I went to get some presents and just look around. They gave me Catherine’s phone so when I was done we all met up at a restaurant where Frank was having a beer. The plan was to pick up Alex and then go to Anthony’s Ranch for dinner in Sai Kung. When we went to pick up Alex she had already eaten and was having so much fun we left her there until we finished dinner much to Catharine’s dismay. Frank had meetings all day on the 20th and the 21st was leaving for business. He was upset that we were having American food as my last dinner in Hong Kong he took me to. Remember, he is the one always trying to get me to eat weird foods. But it was good though I overate and felt sick afterwards.
We picked up Alex after and dropped her friend Edward off at his house before going home to have cinnamon rolls and ice cream. Before watching Rachel’s Wedding, Frank scared me by saying that you can get blood clots in your legs from sitting down to long on flights and they could travel to your heart giving you a stroke or heart attack. Even though it only happens sometimes with people when they travel a lot I am still keeping note to walk around on my flight home!
