Here and happy in Hong Kong - despite the rain.  The last couple weeks in China have been a blur, a good one.  I am still absorbing everything and processing it and need to straighten my thoughts out, perhaps in blog form soon.  I barely had any downtown in Beijing and then spent 2 quick days in Shanghai running around for meetings before jumping down to what I think is the only city in the world that has an escalator in the middle of it to help people get to and from.  Hilarious, the concept.

More business to take care of here next week, but as I arrived into town here at the start of the weekend, meetings friends and having fun was first on the agenda.  In my view, Hong Kong is the craziest, most party-centric town in all of Asia.  I haven't been to Seoul, but out of Beijing, Shanghai, Taipei, Ho Chi Minh, Bangkok, and Tokyo, it's only in HK that it seems I find myself not making it to home till the sun is rising.  I think if I lived here, I'd either have to go into hiding, or accept the fact that I would need a liver transplant in about 2 years.

Excited about tonight - I'm going to a Sotheby's Auction and later finally getting to attend an AnD event.  HK Live!  Maybe see/meet some AnD folks there?  It's funny, I've never officially met Terrence Yin until last night at Rack's.  We produced a movie he starred in and my friends around always talk about him, so when I finally met him last night, it was as if I already knew him.  A fellow Cal alum even - go Bears.  Nice to meet you Mr. Emcee...thanks for the shot!

It's stopped raining...time to get out!
