Hong Kong Confusion

It’s difficult to know what to do in Hong Kong this time round.

I’ve already been here for two weeks last year,

so I’ve kind of done all the touristy things (except going to the Po Lin Monastery… that I have to do on Wednesday)

So really, all I’m aiming to do, is walk around, enjoy the place,

take a few photos,

and spend some time with Danny.

Danny and Serena at a restaurant in Po Toi O, about an hour's drive.

The weather was pretty horrible for the past few days,

but today it cleared up, and was probably sunny enough to burn me,

although it didn’t.

Walking down the Old Peak Road has got to be one of the best things to do in Hong Kong,

and I stumbled upon the Zoological Gardens today,

complete with a load of interesting birds, monkeys, an orangutan, racoons…

Kind of like a mini-london zoo, but FREE!

After meeting a Ruby Developer over lunch, I went on an old-school tram, before walking 7ish miles to the far east of the island, stopping off at the Hong Kong Film Archive for a break.

Then I went a bit crazy,

and decided to walk all the way back up the Peak at night.

Didn’t actually take that long, but I was sweating so much the ink on a piece of paper in my pocket got completely erased!
