We are out of the 3 day restaurant quarantine now! I wanted to spend a little bit explaining how it all worked. Before leaving Minneapolis, we needed to take a rapid test 24 hours before departure on Thursday and fill out a long and confusing health questionnaire that I messed up twice and had to redo for both Joanna and me.
In preparation of meeting Popo, I spent some time gathering and scanning old pictures to show her from photo albums we had at home. She likes looking at photos and she has a tablet she uses to watch tv shows and video call family members. Here are a few interesting ones I’ve found.

We’re currently staying at the Cordis Hotel in Mon Kok for the week we’re in Hong Kong. Kimberly found it for like $150 a night and it has 2 bedrooms and 1.25 bath which is really convenient for the 3 of us. One of the major selling points of the hotel is that they have daily tai chi classes every morning at 9am that you can sign up for.
