Tara is kicking off~ Milesburg roads are confusing, the gps lady took us in circles thru a residential neighborhood. When we realized she was a crazy loco bee, we called the hotel and the kind lady behind the desk stayed on the phone with us till we found her. She didn’t seem too surprised at … Continue reading

NYC or HK?
How quickly can you to tell which pics below are NYC and which are HK? Without any clue of what Hong Kong looked like, I took some pics in NYC before I left that I thought could look like HK. Then I recently did the same here in HK. View the original post (the NYC … Continue reading
First pics from China…
…TOWN. Chinatown, NYC. Where we ate tonight. But what d’ya think – could be Hong Kong, right?
Dinner tonight at Joe’s Shanghai
Looking forward to meeting Marc Lucas for dinner tonight. Joe’s Shanghai is just a 10-minute walk from Lea’s apartment.
Oh Berle, I’m gonna miss you!!
This time tomorrow I’ll be on a plan to Detroit, then on to HK. It’s true, there are nonstop flights to Hong Kong from Detroit, of all places. Probably the doing of some flight-planner guy for Delta Airlines who lives in Detroit was in love with a gal who lives in Hong Kong. I say … Continue reading
88 Orchard breakfast burrito!
This morning I switched it up and got a breakfast burrito from 88 Orchard. Their bacon is the best – thick, dark red and chewy. This was $8 and every bit as good as it looks.

Berlin’s gonna miss me. (Or maybe he just wants to go for a walk.)
88 Orchard breakfast sandwich
This $8 breakfast sandwich was worth every penny. I took this just after the other half got into my belly. Continue reading
Montauk for 3 days
We packed up Berlin (there on Lea’s back), hopped on a train and headed to Montauk for a long weekend.
Waking up to Berlin in New York
This was what I opened my eyes to this morning: Look at this crazy rat! His name’s Berlin, but I call him “Berle”. Kind of an old-man name for a surprisingly-old teddy bear dog. (Or, if you prefer, lhasa Apso.)
Flight to Memphis was awesome
Memphis was my layover to NYC and Rebecca’s layover to Charlotte. We met in row 4, started chatting and she offered me a drink voucher! Don’t mind if I do…
