Wenn Engel reisen - When Angles travell...

... scheint die Sonne
... the sun will shine.

Funny enough this was the case the day I left Hong Kong to fly back to Germany.
All week long it was cold, rainy and cloudy.
Temperatures below 15°C.
No sunlight...

Then I started packing my stuff again and the weather improved a lot.

No, I do not want to start guessing what the reason for this is, but the last time I left Hong Kong I barely made it before the nearing Typhoon closed down the airport.

Any how.

I am back in Germany now and I enjoy the time I have with my family.

Here are a few impressions from my last visit in Hong Kong.

The first night I took my colleagues to a typical Chinese restaurant (can't remember the name though)

It was very good, but I just can't get used to the fact, that they chop the food with all the bones still inside. :-)

After lunch the following day we took a stroll through the '"Wet Market" near Times Square on Bowrington Road.

Amazing :-)

Finally I had a little snack at Starbucks in Tung Chung where I made some last minute shopping...

One Stop Over in Istanbul, as I was flying with Turkish Airlines...

But that is a different story

Oh yes. there is a Starbucks too. 

Next stop will be Hannover again.

So stay putt. More to come

Hong Kong again...

Yes, that's right.
I will return to Hong Kong.
My flight leaves tomorrow afternoon but this time it is only for a week.

Nonetheless I look forward to this trip.

Let's see if I remember how to get to the clients office in Wanchai :-)

So, back again

Sorry for not posting for so long.
I'm back in Germany again and busy in my next project which takes me to Hannover.

Although I do miss Hong Kong with it's pleasant weather and all the wonderful people I've meet there,
Nothing can cope with the time I can now spend with my family. :-)

We've spent a great time in the Austrian Alps just before Christmas and the kids learned to ski!

 
We were sooo lucky with the weather and snow...
Just look at the view on my wifes birthday

And Christmas at my parents place was very enjoyable...

Finally new years eve we had a nice party at a friends place. 

Delicious dinner with a chocolate fountain for desert... awesome!

I am very much looking forward to what 2012 has to offer...

All the best to you all

No more Hong Kong for me...

As of today I am finished with my project in Hong Kong.









I spent 11 months on that little but oh so crowded island in the Pacific Ocean.
It was great while it lasted, but I am glad to be home again.

My next assignment is some what closer to home. Hannover it is.

But first I want to spend some quality time with my family and friends. I was away far to long and it is time for a catch up.

Oh before I forget: I am looking for a squash partner in Hannover again.
Starting on the 24. of October I want to play a game or 2 while I am there.

Any volunteers?

Back in Hong Kong

Time is flying!

But this time I managed to bring my family here too.

So now we are spending a lot of time together and I have the impression they do like it here.

We have a great apartment in Discovery Bay with view to the ocean and to the Disney World Fire Works each night.

What else can you ask for?

Long Time no Post....

...and yet still no real changes for me.

So here I am, back on my way to Hong Kong. Sitting in the Emirates Lounge in Dubai again.
In 2 hours an Airbus A380 will carry me to Hong Kong, where I will be another 3 weeks.
Home for easter holidays and back again.

My big hope is, that my family will join me in Hong Kong next month!
This reminds me: I need to update that web-page above.... :-)

@Home again

I had a looooooong flight home! 

Flying with Emirates via Dubai took me some 28 hours! 

Due to sandstorms over Dubai all international flights got delayed.

BUT as I could use the Business Class Lounge waiting was kind of bearable...

Now that I am at home at last I love spending quality time with my kids. :-)

Let's see what happens in the next weeks...
