Eggbert's Travels

Monday 22^nd June 2015

SHE SAID:

Cathay Pacific is NOT on my favourites list anymore (I had high expectations but was very disappointed). When we checked in they gave us separate seats 12 rows apart! We couldn't believe it, & she didn't try to change the seating even though we booked in about 5 hours before the flight.

As it turned out, the guy Geoff was sitting next to on the plane was happy to swap with me, but as for Cathay Pacific, I won't choose them again!

Anyhow enough of the ranting.....

We arrived to rain in England...welcome to the British Summer.

Mum met us at Horsham Bus Station; it's good to be back in my “home” town.

 

Lunch spot at Stanley

Murray House - an old colonial building popular for weddings.
(We saw two brides & grooms getting their photos taken here)

Climbing out from Stanley on the tour bus

One of the Christian cemeteries on Hong Kong Island

HE SAID:

 

I should not have been surprised, but it was cold and raining upon our arrival. Hmmmm. And I know this because we were out in it, trying to get a bus from Gatwick to Horsham. A friend of Varena's mum had suggested the bus, but in hindsight it was a dumb idea, as the train went from within the Gatwick terminal and would have taken about a quarter of the time. A lesson for next time I guess.
