We arrived at Hong Kong airport to find that our flight to Frankfurt had been delayed….by 10 hours! After a couple of hours waiting around to see what our fate was to be we managed to befriend a group of people in the same situation. At least we were able to laugh together in frustration. We finally were told that we would be put up in a hotel room and shuttled back for our flight the next morning. After waiting around for another 40 mins we were finally given our hotel vouchers and told that the last shuttle would leave at 12:50am. This was told to us at just on midnight Hong Kong time…the race was on! After a quick shuttle to immigration we filled out our cards and joined the looooong queue. Time was ticking but we finally made through and got to the shuttle with minutes to spare. A short drive to the Marriott and we checked into our 12th floor room…not too shabby! After 13 hours of traveling it will be nice to be horizontal in a bed for a few hours at least. Adventure continues tomorrow, Wǎn’ān!
