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.

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.

Traveling as a couple

I have always traveled alone, having a partner to travel with has it's advantages. A selfie is not just yourself anymore. You can lay your head over to your partners shoulders and feel good about it. You can leave your stuff and they can watch them. Someone to chat...
