Phuket!

We have arrived in Phuket, and it's 93 degrees and sunny. We were glad to leave the grey skies of Hong Kong behind us. Michael was able to join us, and we had a great time lounging by the beach, snorkling, and working on our tans.









We all loved Phuket and are excited to take our friends in May. My mom kept saying that they are in for a treat. I hope they'll think so too! 

I couldn't have asked for a better visit. Thank you mom, dad, and Adam for making the time and effort to come visit us and see our new home. I hope you were able to see how beautiful this part of the world is and why we are loving Hong Kong. Start saving your pennies for a second visit. Cielo, this means you too! 
xx,
Lauren

And a GRAND time was obviously had by all!!Thank you for the wonderful photos & recap of your Mom & Dad & Adam's visit. Awesome!! Loved the "hunks" and the tailored "suits" story. Glad we got to see & talk to your M&D in Hong Kong for a minute on Skype. We could tell the excitement in their voices. Love to you & Michael!!
Love Aunt Jan, Uncle Tom & Tommy

WOW! It looks like you had an amazing time! I actually got a little homesick for Hong Kong (can you get homesick of a place you just visited and never lived?!?) I am so glad everyone had a great time and can't wait to hear more about it! Love- Amanda

Lauren and Michael,
We can't thank you enough for being such wonderful hosts and introducing us to amazing places in the world we never could have imagined ourselves experiencing. This was a trip of a lifetime for all of us, and the best part was experiencing it with you! It is thrilling to see how you both have embraced this opportunity of living in Asia and I am amazed at how you both navigate so easily through one of the largest cities in the world. Can't wait till our return visit.....Bali??? WE LOVE YOU SO MUCH! What wonderful memories we will have! xx Mom
