27 degrees on arrival - have been sweating for 3 weeks straight now. I'm looking forward to rain!We rode a bus to our hostel situated in the middle of Kowloon. Stunning location - surrounded by markets and food! (What more could we want?!)
Decided that this would be the place to relax and recharge a bit - we even stayed in and watched a movie one night.
We did however take ourselves onto the main Hong Kong Island and traveled up the Peak Tram to see an incredible panoramic view of Hong Kong. We ate out most nights trying some local cuisine from some cute little stalls and enjoyed sittin
g on the water front taking in a unique light show that runs across the SkyScrapers set to music. We also enjoyed being kids again playing at Asia's famous Ocean Park - a big theme park! Taking in some great performance by the dolphins, riding rollercoasters, and viewing some amazing animals (pandas, sharks, and more!) Hong Kong was a little more expensive than mainland China, but still good compared to NZ and UK. Good times!
Next stop, Amman (Jordan).
