Hong Kong

We stopped over at Hong Kong on the way home to England for three nights, going from sleepy Wanganui to busy Hong Kongs streets on Sale day was definitely a shock to the system.



Poor Maddie wasn't very well, she was vomitting for 5 hours and was feeling very sorry for herself, she must have picked up a bug or something on the plane

Christmas Day

Christmas day began with a yummy breakfast of crossiants and fresh fruit salad - Thanks Mum. Followed by presents, then a walk around Virginia Lake while Mum and Dad sorted lunch. Maddie had her first taste of pavolova.
