Tired Cheeks to Hong Kong, China

Hey All,
Greetings from Hong Kong :)

Mom just sent me a pic from back home, ugghhh.
looks cold in the Boro. looks like perfect weather to start that fire-place and read a good book.

We had a couple hours layover waiting to catch the flight from Hong Kong to Bangkok.

We just landed in hong kong airport, it is about 4pm your time on Thursday but it is actually 9pm on Friday here.
feel like I'm in an episode of "LOST".  Time warping and all.
funny to think you're still working on yesterday and we're almost finished with Friday.

the flight was AOK, pretty nice airline (Cathay Pacific), free food, free booze, snacks, drinks, little more leg room but not much, just a long time to pretty much sit on your butt, thus the tired cheeks.

each seat had its own monitor with 100's of movies and tv shows and games to choose and play.

flight from LA to Hong Kong was 15.5 hrs and we each probably spent 10 hrs watching movies to pass the time.  Had a little twerp kid sitting behind me kicking my chair and I had to open a small can of whoop-arse on him, but no real harm done.

been up for about 24 hrs now, trying to make ourselves super tired, so when we get to bangkok in 4 hrs we'll just crash to sleep and start really adjusting to their time.

had some typical pizza at the hong kong airport, other than things being written in chinese and english both, and a greater % of asian folks, you can't really tell the difference than a typical US airport (except the food stalls are different). But they did have a McD's also and Starbucks serving the same burgers and fries as always. Airport here is overpriced just like everywhere else...so some things don't change it appears.

Somebody make a good snowman or snowangels and send us the pic.
