In Hong Kong, taking a break..

Apologies.. Our postings have slowed. We're currently in Hong Kong for two weeks on account of Janet's friend Cadence getting married. We're staying with Janet's parents, who live here. A short break from travel.

Janet has been busy with wedding preparations, getting her bridesmaid dress tailored, helping with various things. One of our main tasks for this week (aside for wedding stuff) is to get our Indonesia visas. We're planning to volunteer for an organization called ProFauna in their rural community development volunteer program for most of October. We'll use November to travel around Indonesia. In order to legally perform unpaid work and avoid unnecessary problems, we're trying to get the proper visa.

No crazy travel stories this week. Just living comfortably. Yesterday was Mid-Autumn Festival (a Chinese holiday), and Janet's parents had dinner here with a few guests. Janet and I have been hanging out with Janet's friend Katie who just returned to Hong Kong after several years abroad and is currently unemployed, and with our friend Jo Ann, who's husband James is here for several months for work, and is working crazy hours.
