Canadian physician here. There is an internationally recognized proof of vaccination form against yellow fever that is required for travel to certain countries. The form is on yellow paper and the physician must sign and stamp the original. I could see something like this being developed for...

I live in Vancouver and also love SF. You will have a great time wherever you choose. Yes, Vancouver does have a homeless problem but it really is a safe city. The rough area of the Downtown East Side is only a few city blocks and easy to avoid. If you decide to come to Vancouver let me know...

I received the survey after just returning from ABD China. When I clicked it said that I was not eligible to participate. It must be because I don't live in the US.

We would love to do the food tour but our DS10 is quite picky. Just re-read your latest China trip report and we also went to Tim Ho Wan on the first day. We live in Vancouver which has some great dim sum given the large Chinese population but upon recommendation from a friend we took a taxi...

Thanks for the recommendation. We contacted them this morning and it looks like our best option. We were stressed about the fact that our DD18 arrives at the airport at 6:45am and she will not make it to the hotel in time to book a morning tour. An afternoon tour would mean being late for the...

We did end up doing the HOHO bus today and it as a great way to get an overview of the city. We started on HK Island and ended up doing both routes. We got off at the temple and also explored the mid-level escalators and stopped for lunch. After lunch w3 switched to the other line @nd got off...

We are considering that option. Which company did you book it through?

We may reconsider that plan. We just ventured out walking around Kowloon in the area around the hotel before 9am and we may want to limit the walking around outside until we are more acclimatized to the humidity. We are considering a hop on hop off tour instead. Stay tuned.

What day does your ABD start? We are on the July 29 tour.

Thanks for your post. We just arrived in HK for a few pre-nights for the tour that starts on Sunday. Any suggestions for what to do in HK before the tour. Today we plan to explore the area around the hotel. We plan to do a day trip to Macau and see the big Buddha on Lantau Island on another...

Yay, thanks for the additional posts. I am actually reading this from The Peninsula Hotel in Hong Kong. We just arrived last night after a 13 hour flight from Vancouver. We were so exhausted we went right to bed before 8pm. As a result, I have been up since 3am surfing the web and checking...

Just thought I would update everyone on a recent change to the China Visa form. We live in Canada but I would assume that this change applies to all Chinese Visas including the US. The form we downloaded from the website asked us to list all countries we have visited in the last 12 months...

I first started reading your trip reports because we are booked on the China ABD ne t month and between your 2 reports and the ones from Say Hello and Calyso I feel that I am very well prepared and excited. I enjoyed your 2 China reports so much I have been making my way through the rest of...

I am getting so excited for our Jul 29 ABD China. This place is a block from my office and I often spend my dinner break there because the food is great and the service is fast. I thought this group would especially appreciate the theme and check out the font of “Great Wall”. The G is even an...

That sounds fun!

Very exciting! Can’t wait to meet everyone.

Thanks for the Visa link. Good to know we don’t all have to go in together. Yes, sorry I did mean Adventures by Disney. We are starting to get very excited. It starts on Hong Kong and ends in Shanghai.

I loved your TR and the photos from your link. We are a family of four from Vancouver and I would appreciate any insight you have into the Visa application process. All the info I have seen is American. We are booking a trip on ABD this summer and we now hav all our flights and pre and post...
