Hong Kong; city skyline March 2011
We immediately found ourselves lost in the lights and confusion of hong kong. Our hostel was a little tricky to find (being located twelve floors above a shopping arcade) on the longest and busiest street in kowloon district. It took us over an hour to buck up the courage to go into one of ther local restaurants and eat.
The room we are staying in is just a bit noisy, the toilet shower combo in the bathroom is quite interesting, if you wanted you could use both at once you could. Luckily we both have earplugs so the traffic noise is not such a problem.
From hong kong we went to see the big buddha (its a big buddha), went up victoria peak on the tram and visited some very different markets. These included the bird, flower and goldfish markets. A day trip to macau was also squeezed in and was a weird experience. Macau's mix of european and chinese culture is unlike anything we have ever seen.
