Chore Day


Not much news today, it was chore day... cleaning, packing, laundry, and of course last minute shopping. A few of us found a laundry service (pictured above).  Seven pounds of laundry (washed, dried, and folded) for HK$32 (US$4.15), others stayed in the hotel and did their own for HK$40 (US$5.19). I am thinking about having a economic lecture on outsourcing tomorrow :) Note in the picture that they "100% Care"... whew, that was a relief. Laundry done with 80% care just doesn't wear well. 

As for the last minute shopping... both Dr. Duerr and myself feel that Hong Kong will have to revise their economic forecast after what we saw brought in today just from Emily, Kelli, Alyssa, and Amanda. (Haven't seen what the others did yet)

Tomorrow is a travel day for us... we will leave Hong Kong and head for Hanoi. The weather forecast for where we are headed is 92 degrees with 94% humidity... it says it will feel like 104. At least it's not a dry heat. 

Have a good night everyone.... I'll blog again from Vietnam upon our arrival.
