Some of you may have noticed my recent change of location.
Yep, now that school is over, wessa's household is on the move (again) back to Hong Kong this time.
Have not had so much exercise as I had in the last three days. Boxes and boxes of sh#%!
I just can't believe how much sh#% a family of four can accumulate!
The funniest part was Santa Fe Movers asking - "Are there watches in all these watch boxes?"
Duhhh, :-)
Despite all the dramas I'm really looking forward to being back in Hong Kong where things just work, where taxi drivers are relatively polite and (most of them at least) speak English and are happy to take you wherever you wish to go, even if it might be less than a mile down the road :-)
Last but not least, no worries about getting all my watches over to Hong Kong, no fears aboutnwalking past HK customs with a hand carry bag full of watches. One small benefit of living in a duty free port ;-)
"Anything to declare Sir? Nope, just some watches." :-)
You have no idea the the somersaults I had to pull to bring my collection here, wherever here is for the next day or two ;-)
Having said all that, the last few years of gypsy lifestyle have been extremely educational for Mr and Mrs wessa as well as wessa's two girls. We have had the opportunity to see places that we would normally just read about. We have met some great people that we would have not met otherwise.
At least the Internet works properly in HK so it will be no problem staying in touch with them all via Skype, Facebook or YouTube ;-)

Any members here from Hong Kong? Anyone visiting Hong Kong anytime soon? I'd be more than happy with a GTG. Perhaps the Hong Kong Watch & Clock Fair in September?

Glad to hear the move went well. Just left Hong Kong 5 days ago :) Love that city, its where my mom was born. Its a wonderful city and a great place to visit. Always a fun time there. Hopefully I'll be back again soon.
