HONG KONG





We went to Hong kong for 5 days after Dubai. It was good for shopping. There weren't many nice views. Customer services was not very good at some places. the hotel was old and services were poor. Not many speak English on the street. i had to struggle to communicate in Cantonese. My fault for not learning the language when i was younger. It's not late but difficult now.

We met up with Tiep. She lives in Hong Kong. She took us around a bit, and we went to Lantao island to see the bronze sitting buddha. Unfortunately it was raining and cold. We went to a nice restaurant, but because of no booking and the restaurant was popular it took us more than an hour to get in. Actually most restaurants are not very nice. you have to know the right one, otherwise the foods can be really bad. On the street We tried " tou tofu' which is stingy tofu...tau hu thui...And it sure is very" thui".

We also went to Macau, with its portugal influence in culture arts, and language. we saw the Maria Quan Am, teh casinos, and saw bungee jumping at the center point tower. Also went to a few temples, to pay respect to Quan Cong...etc..
