Hong Kong Photo Journal - Part 1

We will let these photos speak for themselves..... from the beginning of the trip until now....

Flying over the North pole! notice the giant cracks!

All the TV monitors froze and had a huge rebooting session (this was when we flew over the North Pole!)

First photo of Hong Kong - Mongkok!

Hungry - waiting for my japanese ramen!

Another shot of the bustling Mongkok after dinner

First day of work for Mark! Notice the building is still half built!?!?!

Waiting for the car at the W hotel right next to Mark's office building (the ICC).

A Barnyard Wedding ... At Stone Barns?

This mood board really got us going... Mark and I really love an outdoor wedding surrounded with beautiful foliage and flowers. A barnyard wedding would be perfect. After checking out venue information of a few places in and around NYC, Blue Hill at Stone Barnes seems perfect..

How perfect?


- just 40 minutes outside of NYC, far enough to be a little away from the city and close enough for everyone to get there

- a wedding ceremony in the garden

- a cocktail and hors d'oeuvre hour outdoors

- reception and dancing in the newly finished Hay Loft (houses 150-250 guests)

- and on to enjoying an Indian summer night ....

- lastly.... how about FRIGGING AMAZING FOOD?

Getting Ready for Carol's Wedding

My sister Carol's wedding dress code for bridesmaids -

pretty bridesmaids dress:

... and SILVER SHOES.


Who knew they would be so hard to find ? After 10 days of excruciating search in Hong Kong (aka shopping city), I finally found these gorgeous Blumarine heels! they are a with a moderate 3" heel with baby pink soles (!), plus they make my feet and legs look great! Another plus is that I can wear them again!

I would kill for these electric blue version (same shoe), but unfortunately they just don't fit the occasion :P

A note to my bridesmaids: it's never too early to look for shoes! (gold and comfy ones)...

Mango = McGuiness ??

See for yourselves!!
