... for later). He then had it 2 days later and when Dee asked his reaction, was told second Lewey hilarious quote: "its food, its edible, therefore its good"....keeping in mind the $60AUD budget.<br><br>We relented for dinner and made life easier with a good old visit to Maccas (McDonalds).

... alleys of Mong Kok where you can buy pretty much anything you want. The area has been cleaned up a lot in recent times but we were still vigilant of pick-pockets and rip-off merchants. We had great fun weaving through crowded streets, checking out the stalls and small shops.

... zwei junge Pudel auf ca. 1 x 1 m. Logischerweise waren die Tiere entweder apathisch oder völlig quirre. Kein schöner Anblick.

... one tub!). Afterwards they took us for a meal of the typical Guangdong region food, it was a true banquet with prawns, scallops, fish, other shellfish and chicken stew -finished off with pancakes (kind of like an Indian roti).
