Friday, November 14, 2008 Y 9:16 AM HELLO WORLD I AM IN HONG KONG. AND LOVING IT. Arrived around 10am yesterday and we found our way (through MTR) to our hotel ( Express by Holiday Inn). It's a tad small but it's comfy and it has good service. OH TAKING THE MTR IS LIKE EXERCISING. Just simply walking to the TRAIN PLATFORM is SUCH A LONG WALK! Compared to MRT, walking to the escalator is like totally NO BIGGIE. They have like travellators in most mrt stations IMAGINE THAT. Am loving the food now! There's this deep fried yong tau foo thing near the hotel and it's ADDICTIVE. It's like one of the main reasons I want to come back to hongkong haha. Went shopping at Tsim Sha Tsui yesterday. Feet are dying. I mean, they died. To think we're just getting started. We're going to take a train to Shenzhen (mainland China) now and I heard the crime rate is like super high. Some roadside stall auntie warned us to be careful of pickpockets. We're trying to dress more like locals so we won't look like targets HEHE. I just bought boots so it's the PERFECT excuse to wear them. This morning we were going into the restaurant for breakfast then the waiter was so confused HAHA. He didnt know whether to speak to us in cantonese, mandrin or english. He started speaking in Cantonese to me (cos of my boots I look like a hongkong teen) then looked at my parents (dressed like tourists, apparently) and talked in English then looked at my sis (who refused to take off the hairband that TOTALLY does not match her clothes) and spoke in Mandarin. Off to Shenzhen! |
