Hong Kong: My First International Trip

1989 was a landmark year for me and my wife Grace as we departed on our first overseas vacation, notably to the British colony of Hong Kong.  We weren’t traveling alone as we were joining Grace’s  E. Ganzon, Inc. office mates as well as their boss, Engr. Eulalio “Loi” Ganzon on a 3-day tour.  We all departed on Manila on board Philippine Airlines Flight PR-0300 and arrived at Hong Kong’s Kai Tak International Airport after a 1.5-hr. flight.

From the airport, we were all transported in a bus to our hotel located at Hong Kong’s Harbor City area – Omni Prince Hotel.  This hotel, overlooking Kowloon Park, is just a 20-min. drive from the airport.  Here, we stayed at some of the hotel’s 401 contemporary rooms  and suites.  Our visit to this British Crown colony was to last three days.
