Travel Challenges
So we got on the second leg of our journey and low and behold. A part on the plane had to be replaced, but it turns out to be a major repair. Cathay Pacific #lifewelltraveled quickly arranged accommodations at the Regal Airport Hotel since we will be delayed till the next morning.

The Executive Suite
We got a pretty sweet room with a huge king size bed which we will probably not see on our budget tour.
On the plane, Terry’s seat did not have proper working video, so she took a gamble and tried if she could be upgraded to first class since s those seats were empty, but the attendant didn’t fall for that option. Oh well, it was a nice try anyhow.
What soup is Vietnamese cuisine is known for?

We had a 75 HKD per boarding pass to spend on breakfast. So we headed to the food court and got us couple of congee bowls (rice soup). 75 HKD does not go far at a airport.
