Christmas Eve in Hong Kong airport

It's pretty quiet here; Rohan & I are enjoying (enduring?) a 3-hour layover before we board the flight for Delhi.

First flight was remarkably good; bassinet seat was very useful, another couple with a 14-month old was using the next bassinet & we shared toys, the attendants were kind, and a very sweet single man was right next to us. The only bad thing was Rohan doesn't sleep well - which means I haven't slept at all.

I haven't been here in 5 years, and it hasn't changed much. I like/miss the warm, moist air of southeast Asia. The smell in the air (which I think is just pollution, but I like it) reminds me of working here. Perhaps I'll work here (or at least in Asia) again.

Tonight I really wish we were all snowed-in in MD, wrapping gifts & preparing to sing Christmas carols with my family, but I'm also glad we're headed to see our Indian family - Daadaji deserves to see & enjoy the walking-cuteness that is Rohan, too. :)

Photos of Rohan in his bassinet, and the HK airport, where I'm posting using my BB and free wifi, quite acceptable.

Only 8 more hours until we are reunited with Daddy & the gang in Delhi. Yay! Zzz!

Happy Christmas Eve to all!
