King Kong

5th - 9th November

Hong Kong is relativley clean, civilised and spit-free. It even has Pret-a-manger. A nice respite from the rest of China.

We spent our time doing the usual touristy things; taking in the impressive high-rise city from Victoria peak and Kowloon pier, hiking up to the big buddha and a boat trip along the river. Being with jet-set G and Will we also had an excuse to blow our budget somewhat and enjoy 4 nights out on the trot. I think that's more drinking than we did during a whole month in Japan.

Will even managed to convine us to revisit a karaoke box. Seeing as he was only visiting for a few days, Ed and I obliged. Despite the selection of English songs being at the detriment to the vast array of canto pop, a good few hours were spent singing away. As you can see from the picture, the boy's got soul.
