... handed shower over the toilet and basin. Dani had a very interesting hairwash later that day, becoming very adept at multitasking. Our bed was very Japanese - hard as a rock, the equivalent of a trestle table with a foam mattress on top. On the bright side, there was aircon and our backs were top tastic.<br><br>When we now ventured downstairs, the main floor was lit up with people, Dani was keen to try a samosa from one of the local outlets (she was later glad that Lewey suggested ...

As we touched down in Hong Kong and I looked out my window to see white sand, sunshine and palm trees outside I began to get the feeling that I had the wrong idea of Hong Kong as all sprawling skyscrapers and bustling streets and indeed, although area such as Central and Wan Chai have grown into bustling high rise cities with huge underground and in-skyscraper shopping centres and residential districts, by staying with a friend ...

... so the humid temperatures outside can be avoided as much as possible - it can't be nice to run around the city in a suit in that heat! I really liked Hong Kong, probably more than I expected to. It's much more Westernised than I thought it would be, and a very active, lively city.<br><br> Alex - Hong Kong was great as usual.

... off at Aberdeen and had a trip around the harbour to see some junks, it was cool to see it all in our little boat and the driver was quite funny, and took some good pictures of us, wearing some funny hats, as well! There was a market at Stanley and a Mediterranean like bay area. On the 27th we went up Victoria Peak which overlooks both Central and Kowloon and you get a great view of it from the 'rice bowl' observation deck. Its also a good laugh to go up there by the ...

... appearances. It really is quite a sad thing when the value of a person is judged solely based on what one looks like on the outside. Truly, truly sad. My final night, the band had to bid farewell to two of our members. So, we decided to do it in style. We took our alcoholic beverages up to Victoria Peak (about 700m from sea level) and partied the night away above the hong kong skyline. The only problem was, as we were partying we didn't quite realize that climbing ...
