Point of No Return

So we sent in our notice to terminate our lease today!
We will have our friend adopt some of our furniture while we are away and move the remaining items into a small apartment near the HK Airport where rent is a lot more reasonable. We will still be renting a place since storage cost in HK is very high especially for facilities with climate control (a must for the humid weather in HK). Jaime and I had thought about keeping the current apartment but the total rent wasted could fund our European trip already!
Last day of Winfield Building will be June 18, 2009 (which coincides with our City Hall anniversary). This place is in our view the best place in Hong Kong: Nice open view of the race course, breezy balcony, huge swimming pool, convenient location. This is also where we shared and created a lot of memories as newly weds. We will miss it dearly and we may move back to this building when we return to Hong Kong in 2010 (if we can still afford the rent then)... Auf Wiedersehen Happy Valley!

:-( Also it was Joaqauin's first home, which also adds all the memories as first time parents!

We really like our apartment! May move back to it if we can still afford it after coming back to Hong Kong

Last day at Fuhsing!
