New Times Shenzhen

... ent whilst passing, to the full on staring and gawping as if you've left the house riding a giant goose whilst wearing a peek-a-boo tutu and inflatable arm bands. I've found th**e's no need to worry though as it's v**y innocent and just plain curiosity; apart from the time I actually did leave the flat inadv**tently riding a giant goose whilst wearing a peek-a-boo tutu and arm bands. On one occasion I caught a guy sneakily trying to sidle next to ...

... out the view of the city. I stuck around up at the top until it got dark and watched the view change as all the lights came on, and at 8 watched the light show in reverse.<br>Day three was another beautiful day so I got the bus over to Stanley Market for a little bargain hunting then briefly checked out Times Square. Even if I could afford to buy anything I wouldn&#8217;t be able to pack it so shopping is a bit of a pointless endeavor right now. My limited budget began to ...

We visited mainland China, left Hong Kong by Turbo Jet, it took about 1 hour, plus customs. Macau is an island almost all of it city. It was harder to get around since most of the signs were in Cantanese. All of the casinos are in Macau, so the Harbor is lined with beautiful buildings, then the interior is the older city buildings. Some of the ...

... we were on the 26th floor and a smokeing floor - I had booked a non smokeing floor - so they upgraded us to 2 junior suites - which was nice. Not interconnecting - as I had booked - but still better then what I paid for. We went in search of dinner - should have done Maccas - the place we went to was ****. Thats fairly crase I know but the waitress was wearing an ipod whilst ...

... Asian cuisines. Satay King can be found on Ladies' Market itself (24 Tung Choi St.) and as its name suggests, Southeast Asian 'satays' are the main fare here... MongKok Fung Shing Restaurant, on 749 Nathan Road, Just before the corner of Prince Edward Road West, is another Hong Kong culinary institution, very much known for its superb dim-sum and delicious crispy chicken.<br>Fu Kei Restaurant on the 5th floor of King Wah ...

... experience to my last trip, where the wonders of Asia made me compare these ancient cultures to the infancy of Canada's, I have had an interesting experience learning more about Europe and how we evolved from those roots into such a great nation. Our inclusive Canadian culture, which opens the door and welcomes any race, religion, colour, or belief is something truly remarkable. The school itself -- from the long-winded, mono-tone lectures, to the ...

In some ways it feels like only yesterday I landed here in Hong Kong to take on this task. Yet in other ways it feels as if I've been here a lifetime. Either way, my time is up, I fly in the morning. Back to my most favorite city on the planet. Melbourne . Or as I like to refer to it, home. I know all my family and friends are waiting to see me, and I'm looking forward to seeing them. But I will miss you new friends that I ...

... In an economy which is cash driven and where paying with a note just 5 times the value of the transaction raises eyebrows, you need the small denomination coins to avoid getting umpteen headaches a day. The fakes are becoming a nightmare. More to the point, it's not fun to stop trusting everyone you buy from; in fact, it's plain depressing to treat everyone like a criminal. Sadly, China's citizens are paying the price for the government's short cuts on ...

... to a hospital where nurses are conspicuous by their absences. Nonetheless, this commercial environment creates an awesomely slick process for obtaining treatment, completely at odds with the chaotic patterns that make up daily life in China. However, one precursor for getting access to the system is cash. If you are really sick, that's frightening. Secondly, you have to know which hospital to go to for the kind of treatment you need ...
