So I’m in Hong Kong.

I wasn’t expecting to be in Hong Kong.  To be honest, I don’t think my bud planned for us to be in Hong Kong either.  But somehow it happened.  These things seem to happen with us.

One day we were happily gaming in the comfort of our home and then the next Pokin packed up and moved to Hong Kong to go live in a closet.  A few weeks later, it was our turn.  I understand this move was caused by a last minute decision to apply for some Smart Cities program in Hong Kong?  I didn’t like it but they got into their program, and were crazy enough to say yes.

I remember Hong Kong, I’ve was just here last year.  It was crowded and small and I didn’t get to game.  I don’t remember liking Hong Kong.

I think Pokin knew I wasn’t going to be too thrilled with it, so she tried to bribe me with cake when I arrived.

She also mentioned it was my bud’s birthday.

Right, of course it was.  And of course that’s important, but I knew really she was trying to make sure I felt good about the decision.  It was a nice effort, but she got me a purple cake.  PURPLE?  It was grape flavoured. There wasn’t an ounce of cocoa in it!!  Well happy not-good-enough-birthday for my bud Nicholas!

At least it’s just my bud and I for the next few months.  No other bears.  No bunny.

At least it’s a few months of bear and bud bonding time.

Annnnd right about then I hear Peep.

Of COURSE that jerk bunny stowed away in the suitcase and came along.  Of course.  PEEP I don’t know what to say to you.

“About the bears” says Pokin.

Figures that even in Hong Kong there’d be more bears.  Turns out Duffy’s been living in the hotel while I’ve been gone.  He showed up thanks to Pokin’s cousin Shirley.   Well at least he looks up to me.  Duffy realizes that Big Daddy Sumi towers over him in size and seniority.

Well time to make the best of the situation.   These months better pass quickly!
