First stop: Hong Kong

I just got the new computer that is going to be the base for this blog about my travels around the world. Fortunately, my first stop is Hong Kong, the best place in the world to purchase electronics. So I got myself a nice little 14" laptop that still has a bit of juice, but mostly is portable (2.4kg).

Yesterday was the first full day of my adventure, and the 3rd anniversary of the Hong Kong Swing community, of which I have been a satelite part of since very early on. I taught some dance workshops in the afternoon, then after a bit of a cleanup went to the LanKwaiFang Lindy pub crawl. Free beer and dancing in the street with the HKSwings! crew. Then we moved to a restaurant/bar in Wanchai for dinner and more dancing, as well as performances scattered throughout the evening (including myself jamming on sax with the recorded music for a while).

Tonight is the Stray Kats big band performing at Grappa's. I'm going to bring my horn along and see if I can sit in.

  2. I like Hongkong, my cell phone bought from there. But watch out your hard drive if you fix your computer or you wanna be the next Chen GuanXi~
