Hey everybody, we have only just been able to find internet connection mainly due to our previous location!! Just arrived in Bangkok but we'll update you on Hongkong first...!!
First impressions of Hongkong, very busy, hectic and humid with lots of skyscrapers and taxis..!! Transport to hostel was great met very friendly people that cant do enough for you...however once reaching our 'home' for the next 3days felt like made us think twice about checking out our lonely planet prior to booking a hostel....
'' Sat budget accomadation and Hongkong in one breath and everyone thinks Chungking Mansions a place like no other in the world a huge ramshakle highrise dump in the heart of Tsi Sha Tsui...you may be put off by the undercurrent of sleaze and the peculiar odour of cooking fat, inscence and sewage.The building's anfamy is fueled by tales both tall and true of conflagrations, crimes and unclaimed bodies. Everyone should come here once...'' (If your silly enough to not read the Lonely Planet!!!)
Apart from the accomadation, Hongkong was breathtaking- From the unbelievable views from Victoria Peak to eating noodles on Temple street night market and betting with the Hongkong Chinease in Happy Valley Racecourse!!! - check out our photos to see what we have been up to!!
We have now arrived in Bangkok and have checked in to our lovely hotel..which seems like the Ritz compared to the ''Mansion'' we had before..not seen much of Bangkok so far as have only been here an hour and logged on to the internet as soon as we found a computer!!! We will update you as soon as we can as we are here till the weekend!!!
Missing you all lots..load of love, hugs and kisses
