We’re in Hong Kong

A very long day of travel. Selam did exceptionally well on the 12+ hour flight to HK with just a few cranky moments. We all took natural herbs to get some sleep. Unfortunately, the adult ones kicked in first. I was trying to sleep with an eye shade, and she started singing. I smiled and peaked at her, and that was it for another hour. So maybe 4 hours of sleep in the last 24. I am headed for bed, so I can enjoy the Hong Kong tour with the family in the morning.

P.S. Selam keeps asking where Dian is. I think that’s a good sign. We meet him on Sunday!
