Hong Kong April 29th 2006
Friday, May 26th, 2006Alright, I’m sorry, but I’m about a month behind in my blogging. But since no one is complaining, I only blog when I have time.
Back to civilization. As we crossed the boarder from China to Hong Kong, it’s amazing to see the lengths to which the government goes to keep Chinese people without the right credentials from getting into another part of “China”. A wide river seperates free HK and not so free China. It sorta reminded me of the boarder between San Diego and Tiajuana except the boarder there is much easier to cross. Hong Kong and Macau are supposed to be part of China, but if you enter either, you need another Visa to get back into mainland China. You also have to go thru immigration to get into both “countries”. So when I should have only had to enter China once to visit all 3. My stay in China cost me 2 pages for visas, and 6 stamps in my passport to get into and out of Hong Kong and Macau. I’m quickly running out of pages in my passport and may have to make a stop somewhere to get some more pages added to it.
