Only five days to go!

Hong Kong (historical), Hong Kong


Just a quick posting to let you know that we arrived in Hong Kong on Tuesday evening. We were very reluctant to leave Borneo as it was so amazing and the weather forcast for HK looked dire! We arrived to a very overcast city and a temperature of 28 degrees which seemed positivley cool compared to the mid-thirties we've been used to! But it's really nice here, again our guesthouse is fine and people are very friendly and helpful.
We haven't done much yet, yesterday we had a walk around Causeway bay which is where we are staying on HK island. We went to victoria park which was lovely and saw people doing Tai-Chi! Had a look at the harbour and a couple of Chinease temples and then hit the shops, stopping off at a chinease cafe for an interesting but lovely lunch! After a busy afternoon of shopping and going to the cinema, we went to find a decent beer and stopped at the east end brewery for happy hour! We're in HK Central Library at the moment which is huge and kind of a dream come true for me! We're heading to HK Central later to see what's there and are meeting Corinne's good friend Karen for Dinner at a chinease restaurant which we're looking forward to.
We can't believe how quickly this time has passed and we've had a remarkable time, but we're excited about seeing you all very soon!
