Enjoy reading your daily news (epistles really). All seems to be going well for you but it’s all pretty full on. A suggestion for Hong Kong, one of our favourite places. The Temple of 10000 Buddhas. Out in the New Territories but easy to get by KCR Train to Sha Tin Station. Climb up 431 steps, each with a different carved life size figure of a monk, to a wonderful Temple complex. The main temple has over 12,800 Miniature Buddha figires inside. I believe they have just put an esculator in if the steps are too much!.
