Day 08 - Tues 23rd Sept After packing our bag's and saying goodbye to Li's Hostel and with a 21hour train journey ahead of us, we decided to treat ourselves to a traditional English breakfast (including hot chocolate) from an Irish pub next to the hostel. Our timing couldn't have been worse, as we were joined by thee most pompous, insulting, moody Australian teacher, clearly suffering from delusions of grandeur! Not only did she decided to give us a 30min lectur...

Day 07 - Mon 22nd Sept We had a lot of time to kill today due to waiting around to collect our visa's later that afternoon, so we decided to hit Kowloon park. I headed straight for the footie pitch, eager to teach the locals a thing or two but it was empty! We decided to have a little kick around on our own and I hit a 30yard..ok, 20 yard screamer into the top corner. After that moment of brilliance, we decided the heat was too much and headed for a dip in the p...

Another snooze left us in bed until 11:30am but it's god's day of rest and who am i to argue with the big man!

About 2months ago, we tried to find the STA Travel office in London...It took us 3hours!!! Now ...

Day 5 - Set the alarm for 08:00am but the snooze button was too good to resist, so finally got washed and dressed around 09:00am. As always, food was on the brain, so Steve and I followed our noses to this little gem of a place to have Dim Sum for breakfast (No, it's never too early for Dim Sum) After another world class meal, we headed across to Hong Kong Island on the Star Ferry, then another Ferry to Lantau Island (Mui Wo) When then hopped on a bus which took...

Day 4 - Woke up feeling Slightly hungover...Scrap that...Very hungover! We did plan on getting up early to go over to Lantau Island but the Jagermeister put a stop to that. We plan on heading up to Beijing, so headed over to a travel place to sort out a Chinese Visa. It was kinda surreal walking around the City still have asleep/tipsy from the night before. We booked the Visa's but cant pick them up until Monday at 5pm, we were then told that the train to Beiji...
