This Blog will follow my adventures - well holidays really. Hopefully you will want to tell me what you enjoyed in the countries I have visited and maybe recommend places to go.

Hong Kong

We had an extra half day in Hong Kong as result of a delayed flight. We had to rush for a tour which started 30 minutes after we checked into the hotel! Just about worthwhile but such a culture shock after the peace of NZ. The weather was cool, decidedy cold when we were at the top with a hazy view down onto the skyscapers. So many huge buildings in such a small area - so many people, most of whom seem to make suits, sell rolex watches or give dodgy massages. The riverside area was great, devoted to cinema with many handprints in concrete (where have I seen that before) but not of stars we knew, although we did recognise a larger than life statue of Bruce Lee. I don't have any enthusiasm to see Hong Kong again and certainly not after the beauty of a holiday in New Zealand.
