It’s kind of funny celebrating my birthday in China while everyone is in a timezone 14 hours behind, it felt my birthday lasted a super long time.

It’s been a VERY long day…I shall explain.

This is the second jet lag fully kicked in.

I really don’t know any other way to write the title, I’ll explain.

So I just survived a 16hr flight from chicago to HK. Overall it was a little rough. None of the audio jacks worked in my row so i couldn’t watch the movies.

I have to say this has been the best night sleep since I got to asia. The bed and pillow were super soft and comfy. Slept from 5:30-11:30am and then went downstairs for breakfast/lunch.

So we just checked into our hostel in Bangkok. It’s called the Smile Society. So far so good, I think it’s about $15 USD a night per person, there’s breakfast and wifi included. We’ll be staying here for 3 days and moving on to Laos.

I felt like yesterday morning was a day to basically kill time until our 11:30 pm flight to Bangkok.
Aaron was still feeling sick so Lahti and I went to Victoria’s Peak. The weather was super awesome and barely any haze.

Aaron and Lahti arrived today. I got a call around 9am that they got into Shenzhen and be on standby to meet up with them when they arrive into Tsim Sha Tsui where they coincidentally planned to live as well.
