Then later that night we had hot pot! This is where you cook all your meats and veggies in boiling broth, much like fondue. We had done this last time we were in Hong Kong and didn't want to miss it this time, even though we hadn't been able to join all the dinners during the week.
I will say that it was definitely very different traveling with a toddler than when just Ryan and I went two years ago. Copeland really was such a good traveler and hardly protested about anything, but still, we really had to plan around nap times, meals/snacks, diaper changes, as well as letting him adjust to the time change. And in Hong Kong, everything happens late in the day/night and our son (like his father) is an EARLY BIRD. It may seem like all of my posts are about food...and that kind of is what dominated our time there this year! In the mornings we would do our little family activities before anyone else was awake, then we would usually meet family for lunch, then usually we would go back for Copeland's nap, and then it was pretty much time for dinner and bedtime! Even with the various challenges of traveling with a little dude, I was so happy to have been able to share it with him.
