I took my long awaited trip to Asia last month! It’s been more than a year since I’ve stopped by Asia and I was really excited to do some sightseeing during the lunar new year. Our timing was a little tight, but that was because we packed a lot into our itinerary for the first two weeks. =P The flight to HK itself was pretty uneventful.

For the first weekend, I headed downtown on Saturday to watch the red carpet opening for Thermae Romae. Since I didn’t buy tickets to the gala, I had plenty of time to wait for the guests to arrive. I was really…
