Summer Has Arrived

Patrick arrived home on Wednesday from Jakarta from 2 weeks of business travel - no fun photos to share :(

Summer has arrived here in Hong Kong.  Thursday afternoon Gwen ventured to Hong Kong Island.  These was the weather. 

Later that evening more signs of summer - rain.

Friday night the weather turned again - this time windy.  I had to go back to the office for a hair clip.  Judd gets the photo credits.

Saturday we chilled out and rested - Patrick had not had downtime time in awhile - we caught up on all the season finales on Hulu.

Sunday afternoon we ventured into our hood in a different direction - through Ho Man Tin and to Mongkok.

In Minneapolis there is a restaurant that was featured on the Food Channel's Diner's Drive-in's and Dives - The Wienery (A Dive Hot Dog Restaurant).  We found the equivalent here in Hong Kong - Hot Dog Link.

Only 8 seats in the place, and we were lucky enough to have two of the stools to enjoy our hot dogs.

After lunch we ventured on to Mongkok to find a yarn store - Knitting World.  Gwen found reviews of it on-line.  Without the other reviews and photos we would not have found it either - it is on the 3rd floor of a building behind a market - not visible from the street.

From the street it does not look open - but it was.

Here is the newest yarn to Gwen's stash - 100% Cotton from Spain - to make a market bag.
