Hong Kong!!! What a big city. We spent a few days here but the city was pretty expensive, and there were so many cars whizzing by in every direction it was a bit dangerous for a frog unless he had a keen eye and crossed carefully. Hong Kong sure was a change after traveling through [...]

We didn’t get to see a whole lot from the middle of Vietnam, where the DMZ is, until we got into Hong Kong as Scott came down with a bit of a travel bug (he’s much much better now though). We did manage to see some very interesting architecture and a very important area in [...]
