I told you it was cold Hong Kong when I was there, rite? It was the coldest winter week in Hong Kong. We didn't plan it that way lah since we're not sucker for cold weather but it just happened that way. It was really difficult trying to take a decent picture at Victoria's Peak.

Today, two of them are on my Facebook and we were gleefully chatting over Facebook Messenger since they've just discovered the wonders of the Internet and Social Media.
