Hong Kong phooey…

Back to the first world. And in a big way. Wow.

We found a cheap guesthouse – and $30/night is SUPER CHEAP in Hong Kong.  Smallest room ever, but with all the comforts of home – TV, bed, shared bathroom – and close to the MRT (subway) in Kowloon which is across the water from Hong Kong Island…

I’m writing this from a gaming internet cafe. They don’t have the gazillion internet cafes like in Kathmandu. So we finally found this semi-cheap one in Mong Kok which is a where John is updating photos as we speak. Everyone else is playing games. Pretty funny.

I have seriously never seen so much shopping in my life – and the malls are very confusing – probably because I’m not used to them being so big – and some of them kind of lead into another one and into another one…and just gazillions of people. The markets are very cool though. Like they had an entire street dedicated to sporting goods.  And all Jade in another one. 

I can see why there are so many expats here – I mean you can get pretty much anything you’d want or need as in the states. Movies (in English). Check.
