I finally arrived in Hong Kong. There I had a two hour layover. It was supposed to be one hour but you know how it goes.
The interior of the airport in Hong Kong looks very much like an upscale shopping mall. My question is this: how many people walking through the airport decide: "Oh my gosh, I've got to have that Rolex watch?". Evidently a lot of people do because there were a couple of Rolex boutiques in the airport. Those are probably the same people who have to declare that they are carrying more than $10,000 on their person when going through Customs. Who does that?
Anyway, finally arrived in Manila. The temperature is in the 80's, I guess, and very humid. Plus it had rained recently. We arrived at the Makati Shangri-La Hotel. The driver said it is one of the best hotels in Manila. Again, my company is very generous for paying for us to stay in such a nice hotel.
Because of the delay out of Hong Kong, and waiting for our luggage, and getting through customs, we arrived at the hotel after 1am. The people who are meeting us tomorrow will be arriving around 2pm to take us out shopping. I don't need to get a Rolex watch though; I can get one or two at the airport.
Good night from Manila. I am looking forward to a busy day and week while I am here. Oh yeah, I am actually here to do some work; I almost forgot.
