Hey hey!
Hong kong 26th-28th November 2009!!! This place has really been an experience...we had our own tv screens on the jounrey over which was awesome, the food was also good especially as we got a mars bar icecream! We were sitting next to a cool Chinese guy on the plane who was helpful going close to where we were staying so we took the same bus he even took us to our hotel! Yesterday we had a phone call as well from him, even though we hadn't e
Given him our number he had called the hotel. T
He said he missed us and he hoped we had a good trip, we already have an admirer!
We had bad jet lag and so had a nap then we went out and about in the local area, going to the ladies Market, we only brought one thing each. Then we sampled the local cuisine, we actually tried frog, tasted like chicken but a bit more rubbery. Also it looked horrible.
Yesterday we went to the victoria peak taking the starferry across the channel. Then a bus to the tram which was only 40p! The views were amazing and it was hot we were in t shirts! Then we took a bus to a local fishing village, not a village to you and I as it was about the size of Perth! We. Walked round for a bit then took the bus back as we didn't want to miss the last ferry at 8. After crossing we chanced apon the lights show from Kowloon looking at hong kong island, grabbing a snack at good old starbucks. We then got the taxi back to our hotel.
Hong kong is so busy,there are lots and lots of people and bad drivers! We got looked at lots by scary Chinese men, we felt abit like (mrs rowan) aliens! We will be glad to get back to a culture similar to the uk 's.
Love xox

Ingasmumanddad I was about to question that one! That was like used in the correct grammatical sense so that is fine. I was also thinking of commenting on fact that you are too lazy to type in all your likes.Thank goodness. now speak as you write and we are making progress... We will be seeing videos of you hopping about then? Frogs indeed. Love xx

And I'm so happy that you girlies are having fun!! So jealous!! But it's okay because I love you :P xOxOxOx
Hamish and lorna Stay away from strange men! Scratch that-stay away from all men- both of you!take care!!!
Sanday Maybe Mum is an Alien, thats why you are so strange Inga. Ha I guess I am one too. Well it sounds like it is time to put your skills to the test and keep the strange men away. I am sure he is not that weird? well let us know when you are in Aus guys, safe travelling.
Dorothy Hi Girls sounds like a great time is being had by you both - was in HK a couple of lifetimes ago and it sounds just the same now as then - but the men only look scary, fear not! What will we do here at New Year without you both, and who will amuse the boys??? Have a great time love from us all xxx
Geoffrey Sitting here reading of your exploits whilst having bolied eggs for breakfast on a Sunday morning. You will be in Sydney ny now - hope the flight was good and the beer is cold. No driving licence arrival as yet Rose. Lol.
Lucy I'm impressed by your adventurous side to try frog - also made me giggle that later you returned to Starbucks! haha! But I guess you need some home comforts! Scary chinese men does sound a bit dodgy but I'm sure the moves between the two of you are enough to scare anyone off :) I know you landed in Oz recently (met the Wizard yet? 'Scuse the bad BAD pun!) so hope you are having an amazig time soaking up the rays an hopefully catch up with you soon. All my love Xxxxx
Mary-Rose All sounds v.exciting - enjoy Sydney, hope you see dolphins in the harbour, big kiss to the Freemans and Rusty, love from the Shears xxxxx
