After 1 hour and 15 minutes delay and a 12 hour flight we finally arrived at our destination.... Hong Kong. Having checked in to our hotel and going out for our first night we did not have a clue what to expect. There are so many people and so many lights, it's mad! But once you get used to that, you realise what a cool place this actually is. The shopping is amazing, so many markets and the people are so friendly, im sure we have seen Jackie Chan a million times now.......
On our first day, we made our to Tung Chung, where we boarded the Skyrail Cable Cars up to the larget outdoor Buddha which is amazing and huge and was definetly worth the scary cable car journey (Mel was scared). We then took the MTR (Tube) to Hong Kong Island, where we got on the Peak Tram, to Victoria Peak. We were 2000ft above sea level and could see the whole of Hong Kong. In the evening we went to see the Symphony of Lights show, which was fantastic. We then made our way to Hong Kong Island for a bite to eat...... and for Gary to
take in the sights, which so happened to include the Titty Bars..... What a Perv!
Our last day was spent catching the bus to Repulse Bay where we caught our first sun rays on the beach........ Then by chance we strangely bumped into Joe Stilwell & Russell Bateup.... What are the chances of that???? Next Stop BANGKOK!
