We're sitting in the departure lounge at Hong Kong airport at the moment, this place is absolutely massive. The eggs at burger king are a funny colour of yellow, they tasted pretty good though ![]()
Went and saw the 'Symphony of Lights' at the Victoria Harbour waterfront last night, was amazing, so many buildings with crazy flashing, twirling, spinning lights in all different colours. There must be a power bill to match the size of some of those buildings.
Wandered around after the light show trying to find the night market, finally hoped on the subway and asked which station to get off at. Jo got herself a pair of 'Gucci' sunnys, $10NZD hmmm. I got a pair of binoculars for the same price after bringing the price down from $20NZD. Went and had a beer at probably the most interesting establishment we could find, was an alley way with a sagging tarp for a roof, decrepit tables and a crazy bar man always yelling and laughing at his cook. Ended up getting given two 640ml Tiger bottles for $5NZD total. Sat there having a drink watching the antics of the barman with other customers and the rats running up and down the alley. Good times ![]()
Any way, off to wander round a bit 'cause not looking forward to sitting down for the next 13 hours
Talk to you all from the UK
