I thought about putting all the stuff in a bottle and launching it off Bondi Beach, but realised I'm on the wrong side of the continent for favourable currents. And btw, that's an iceberg not a cake lol

Yeah agreed better with Qantas first class. I am organising the welcome party!

(Can I ask if Lost is a she or a he or any other gender...)

Don't tell anyone, but it is a Happy Feet penguin, so I'm guessing a he.

Definitely Lost is a male, not sure about Found though

I'll take her place, if that's all right.

I think that is quite acceptable :)

How about places 49 to 52? None of those have been active here for many months. Well, neither have I, but I do look in almost every day.

Dear All,

Lost and Found safely arrived in Hong Kong. A welcome committee welcomed them. They are rather tired and headed to have a well deserved rest.

Will keep you updated!

Awwww..that's so cute.

Wonderful .... if you get a chance can you bung a bit more stuffing into Lost, he looks a bit baggy (might be old age)...

What a delightful welcome committee.

PS. I second the request to replenish Lost's "stuffing". He's looking a bit malnourished...

They've been very busy!

Yesterday they went to one public school, one English tuition centre and one CertTESOL centre. WOW!

They also traveled by subway and today are accompanying my daughter at her high-school.

Everybody loves them and they feel very welcomed.

Lost got a helmet and we might do some motorcycle riding and some droning.

Cheers!

What a grand record of Lost & Found's adventures with Tiberius in Hong Kong.
Not only do they look rested and interested in their surroundings, they seem to have had
(ahem) a nice bath or two since I saw them last.

We had a little reunion on Sunday!

It was a real pleasure meeting salmiakki.

We spend a short but great time strolling the streets, enjoying the views, chatting and gossiping about DPC lol.

Lost and Found were also thrilled to meet an old friend :)

What a fun day we had in Hong Kong!

It was exactly 4 yrs ago (April 2013) when Lost came to stay with me in Finland. I was tempted to hijack him and bring him back to Europe with me. I've moved back to the UK since 2013 and he didn't get to visit Liverpool on his last tour of the UK :)

Thanks Tiberius for hosting me!

I've been busy but I took them with me. We got for a ride. There are locations where I took pics for DPC.

They will have a Taiji class some day (not with me...) then visit a bit more the city and off they are to Japan.

Enjoy!

Outstanding adventure story, well told.
Thanks for posting this comprehensive journal of their travels.

Wow you guys have really been everywhere. Well done, a well travelled group.

Superb well done to everyone involved, MASSIVE journey.

The stop to HK comes to an end. Sorry for keeping them that long. Seems that they have enjoyed.

We hiked together, they went to some Taiji class in the park and attended a Taiji / Martial arts reunion.

I am a little busy these days but I will try to make asap the necessary arrangements for them to travel safely to the next destination.
