Thank you, Miffa!

Today we received a parcel from Miffa. Gracias!

Why am I taking a picture in front of this store?

This is the Dolce & Gabbana store on Canton Road, Tsim Sha Tsui.  Why am I taking a picture here?  If you want to find out, please read the following article from the Financial Times.

2011 in review

Remember this?  Here it comes again!

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2011 annual report for this blog.

Here’s an excerpt:

A San Francisco cable car holds 60 people. This blog was viewed about 3,100 times in 2011. If it were a cable car, it would take about 52 trips to carry that many people.

Christmas Mall Decorations, 2011

Here are a few of the mall decorations.  We’ve been doing this for a few years not and quite frankly it’s getting a little stale.

 

Update after a long Absence!

Hello friends!

I apologize for being away for so long!  Unfortunately, besides being busy with school, work and the holidays (my sister came home for American Thanksgiving) I have had my first SLE, or Lupus, flare.  I was diagnosed 10 years ago but never had a major flare until now. After dealing with it for a month I am feeling much better now.

Here are some pictures of 9J that I haven’t posted before, enjoy!

9J was also a “military official”

9J was a “literary official” at an exhibition.

TearJ had a beer with a friend (we don’t know her name) at our favorite German restaurant.

Here’s Tearj!

It’s taken me a while, but finally I got (at least) one picture of our new friend Tearj.  She came to us via my friend Stephanie from Japan.

 

A gift for Miffa

Go over to our friend Miffa’s blog and see what we got her from our travels!

U.S. Trip, 2011 ~ The Getty Villa

Hello, readers, this is 9J!

A must-see venue for Anita, this is the Getty Villa.  This time around she had set aside an entire day to visit the place as well as have dinner with friends.

Gifts from Miffa

Miffa is a great friend as she always give us presents!  She and her family went to Seville and brought Anita a lot of Flamenco things.

The Flamenco Apron!

A Glorious Day

It is a glorious day because I, 9J, and my good friend Miffa are reunited!

Our friends, the Bunny family of Barcelona, are in Hong Kong. Anita and I went to have lunch with them and went to the Science Museum in Tsim Sha Tsui.

We had lunch at a Nepalese Restaurant. This is my first time meeting Tometaro.
