Wander Susan Wonder

This past November (yes I’m still blogging about 2014, but the catch up game is about to be won), I was able to go on quite the epic getaway. This life is weird and hard, but it has taken me to some of the best places in the world…and for that I will be forever thankful. I’ve also been blessed with some good buddies. I know I’ve said this before, but I have the best friends in the world…seriously…I’ll enter them in any competition. Anyways, my go to travel buddy these days is Brittany. If you wanna watch two people have way too much fun….put us together. We have gotten pretty good at this take a vacation thing….really because Brittany does all the planning and I just run around acting like a 12 year old. It works people…and I’m convinced it could make a killer TV show.

Anyways, the Asian Adventure covered 6 countries….so clearly this is gonna need to be a series. I met up with Brittany in Hong Kong….and it was a sweet sweet reunion that consisted of a lot of laughter a couple Starbucks cups. Hong Kong has to be one of the quietest cities I have ever been to. No car honking, no yelling….I couldn’t believe I was in a big city.

I loved the Hong Kong harbor and watching all the boats

I love the Olympics…that is all

We found really cool coffee mugs!!

While staying in Hong Kong, we decided to hop over to Macau. It is a 45min ferry boat ride from Hong Kong. It made for a busy day….but why not add another country to the list?? Macau is known as the Las Vegas of Asia…and it did have its fair share of casinos….but they also had pandas.

There was a slightly unfortunate restaurant incident. I ordered chicken and veggies…and that is exactly what I got (head and all)….I did my absolute best to keep a straight face and choke it down….lets just say I did not have a clean plate….and I got a Dairy Queen blizzard afterwards.

On our way to the next destination, we had a long layover in Singapore. I’ve got one word for you….malls. There is a lot of them. They are huge and themed and overwhelming…but there is also an Outback in one which was thoroughly enjoyed. Part of our layover meant spending the night in the airport…but as you can see….at least one of us (not me) is a professional at doing.

The rest of the adventure only gets better…so stay tuned!!
