So here we are, our last day in Hong Kong and our last day on our travels. What did we do? Yep you guessed it, had a little wander round a few shops and Kowloon park before heading to the Airport and zooming back to Manchester. After visiting so many wonderful places we end up back in Manchester! We've both had a wonderful time, enjoyed every minute of it (Ziggy excluded) and are truely distraught to be returning home after such a wonderful journey but g...

Today we got up and headed out to a shopping mall. There isn't a great deal you can do here other than shop, however Cate's in charge of the guide book and hasn't let me have a look all day! I managed to find some shoes which is always nice, a bargain of course and we had pizza for lunch (authentic I know but Cate was beginning to experience lizards crawing through walls so I thought I'd better get her a fix).  Tonight we went to a wonde...

Today we decided to head over to Hong Kong Island, the busy built up CBD. We got the Star Ferry from Kowloon which is where we are staying to the Island for about 20p.

Jumped into an English pub to escape the ra...

First Impressions were great, the Airport was easy, the train was even easier and after a short shuttle bus ride we arrived at our hotel. The Village People we right, it is indeed fun to stay at the YMCA. Cate was a little disappointe...

Well we headed back to Sim Lim Square and we both spent ages looking in various shops before I bought a Camera and we both bought a Sony walkman. What an effort it was, I'll give you good price etc. Its a lot easier in Meadowhall but I think we got a some good bargains. We spent the rest of the day pottering about and sightseeing. Neither of us felt great so we went back to the hostel mid afternoon for a nap, must be the heat.We're heading out for dinner ...
