Our Asian Farewell Trip: Hong Kong

Hello Again! It has been a loooong time since our last blog post, and we will try not to let that much time pass between posts again. In our defense, a lot has happened for the Diller's since our last post of our trip to Bali back in April 2016 - we moved to the island of Crete in Greece in January '17! The next couple blog posts will wrap up our time in Asia and detail our adventure of moving to and discovering Europe. Stay tuned!

In October 2016, we realized that our time had come to start saying farewell to Okinawa and the rest of Asia, so we dusted off our "Asian bucket list" and chose Hong Kong, Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur to visit.

Hong Kong

• Day 1 - Arrival in Hong Kong

Peace out Okinawa...

The first place we ate at in Hong Kong was a fast-food fried chicken stand because on our way to dinner someone (Kirk) was hungry and needed food asap, lol. 

When we finally made it to the local mall, we found a restaurant with a fixed menu consisting of some fried noodles, bok choy, sushi, and hot tea.

• Day 2 - Hong Kong Disneyland

Hong Kong Disney....why not?

Our first stop as soon as the gates opened was to Tomorrowland for the Star Wars exhibit!

The highlight of the day was Kirk meeting her longtime Wookie crush...

• 

  ...and getting her celebrity kiss...

  Day 3 - But just our luck, the super typhoon Haima struck the Hong Kong harbor on Friday causing all city transportation to be shut down and thus canceling all our plans for exploring the city. Instead, we had three meals from the hotel restaurant and an epic Netflix marathon.  

Those were the highlights of Hong Kong, but stay tuned for the continuation of our trip in Bangkok, Thailand...
