George's World Travels
Phew, last one!
spent a lot of the first day looking for a camera for Byron, (he lost it at the club in Hangzhou) youd think itd be simple here!
Had lunch at TGIFidays!!!
Then after deciding it was too cloudy to go up the peak, as thered be no views, we wondered around and found a cinema! Watched Star Wars 3, which I thought was really good, even though am not a big fan. So cool being in a cinema after 3 months! Then met up with the others for some drinks.
Next day went to Victoria Peak, up on the cable car. Views were cool. Also found a lovely clothes shop up there, and have bought a blue Chinese dress. Very pretty. Then went on the trams across the island (Hong Kong Island) and had look around. Then pretty much headed back, said my goodbyes, except for the twins, who I got split up from in acrowd. So if you guys are reading this, am so sorry but am sure I'll see you sometime in Brazil. I hope you have a really cool time on the rest of your trip.
And yes then made the very long journey to my hotel, which is on Lantau island. Lots of metro stops and a taxi ride away. Am glad Im here though. I have a lovely view of the beach and the hotel is lovely. Has an outside swimming pool which Im making full use of! and an English tv channel in my room, which wait for it has FRIENDS on every night at 7.30pm! Im in heaven! Theres also really nice breakfasts where theres baked beans, Chris will share my joy! and Alpen! Its so nice being away from the hustle and bustle of city life. Ill probably get abus at some point and see some of the few sights on the island-its not that touristy here, but Disney Land is opening up on the island later this year, so am sure thatll change.
Have had a lovely day. Sunbathing, reading Pompei, and relaxing. Really needed it after the tour. It was amazing but intense, never staying in one place longer than two nights. So have got everyhting out of my bag and have covered every surface of the room. Have my own room for first time in a while. Although is very strange without Chris.
So Ill leave you there. Im getting an overnight flight to Sydney on Thursday and will meet up with Myles on Friday!!!!
Next chapter of my trip is about to begin...
