Quick note about their transit system.
Fantastic! Easy to navigate. It goes everywhere. And makes sense. Something Vancouver should take notes on.
It was all under ground, spanned across all of hung kong, the trains were long, fast and quiet. And you were forced to Swipe a pre payed card upon entering and exiting the "fair paid zone "
When you arrive through plane in Jong long after you go through customs you can buy bus/tram tickets. We bought the "Octopus card". Which gave us transportation to and from the airport on the train and unlimited MTR train use for three days and bus service. Cost us about HKD$150 each. It's also re-loadable at any 7-11 or transit station.
And when you leave, you can drop the card off and get HKD$50 back.

REESA DEVLIN great idea, Vancouver should take note. They are so concerned about people not paying. Mum
