Well, what a day. And when I say day I'm talking a stretch of time that is longer than your average 24 hour period. Tuesday saw me go in to Plexi for my last day. From there I went home and then out to the airport. I flew over night to Hong Kong and really didn't get a lot of sleep. When you're 6 foot 3 inches your choice of airline is important...

This place is mental. People in every corner. High density all the way...don't have much time here...walked around today and saw a load of police cars shooting at a guy in a gas mask on a bridge with a rifle...i started filming it from behind a wall...after a while i realised they were making a film when fake blood started to spurt from yer man ...

This day, I went to the place that I enjoyed the most and that is NP360 (Da Yu Shan)!!! As the cable car only starts at 10am, we woke up at half an hour later. It only took less than an hour to Tung Chung station from our hotel. Isnīt that fast? On the MTR to Tung Chung, a group of Mainland ladies boarded the MTR. Obviously they didnīt know how...

So I wasn't really home alone. But I was home with Leif's parents, and on account of my lack of Chinese, it was pretty much home alone. I mean, I've learned what some of the things are that Leif's mother is saying to me. Basically, it's either 'wear clothes' or 'eat'. She knows 'cold' and 'hungry' in English, so she tells me that, too. One morni...

Today we had a massive lie in and got up at midday. We then went on a shopping expedition around the markey looking for a cheap but genuine designer watch. The police have sorted out the market now and there was not a Rolex in site. Our only hope was to hang around outside Tsim Sha Tsui where Oli said we might get lucky. We walked around looking...

Bad weather-magnet! Waiting for Bertram to arrive, I couchsurfed on Lamma Island, just south of Hong Kong city. Continuting on the theme of bad weather hiking, I am just going to add some pictures of a walk I did around the island through a blanket of rain. For the first time in a month, I went several hours without seeing another human being! ....

Hong Kong was much bigger than I thought it would be and much more spread out. Luckily they have a transit system that works, including something like eight subway lines and two or three suburban rail lines. First stop was the railway museum...which was rather small and didn't really have much going on. I guess I was expecting something more. I...

Well, it's my last weekend here and rain or shine I headed out to Stanley. It's on the most Southern part of Hong Kong Island. After taking the MTR and a mini bus, the trip only took about 45-50 minutes. I was a bit surprised how quick it was but like I said before, the transportation system here is pretty good. Although, I would have to say tha...

Oh geez HK HK HK! Of all the trips, this was the most special, I finally feel at home. Hehehe Love it! I will definitely go back!

Had to change my plans today! Was planning a days hiking to Lamma island but when it rains in Hong Kong IT POURS! Gotta say I was half expecting it, had been keeping an eye on the long range forcast for the past week and today was down for thunderstorms, (which would have been exciting), but instead the only thundering was the deluge of water co...
