We have trees here you see but in HK..satu batang pokok pon takder. But it's all for the better. Time to whip out those sexy two strings, halter tops and hot pants yo! Miu Kai and Lui Yan Kai I think, is a whole lot of fun to shop but I really dont think any of the clothes, okay a lil biased over there but maybe the majority of clothes which they refer to the Japanese couture, will not interest you. But of course, bargain is the catch and provided you make urself feel really at home and sprang out typical hongkie cantonese, you'll get a bloody good price for anything. Wong Tai Sin temple huh? Been there and it's one hell of a smoky place over there. The smell of burnt joss sticks are not listed under my list of favourite scents. Asthma patient should keep out of that place. Visibility range barely 2 metres but it's interesting to see those devotees paying their respects to the said Gods and Godesses and praying religiously. Talk about interesting beliefs and cultures. Very traditional and you will be almost glad that these customs survived in our modernized culture. you know, cultures assimilation can totally wipe out traditions and people like me will somehow gradually turn into a banana-ier person than I am now. I digress. HK is a good place to visit all year round cuz the climate is not that extreme but getting burnt and scorched under the almighty sun is not even funny! A lil bit boring but I think Australia, Canada and New Zealand is the best place to visit during summer. The beaches, the moors and the farms. Oh so lovely! What about Corea? Never been there but I guess it's pretty popular in the tourism industry nowadays no?

Relatives galore. Octopus cards a big help? Thank the HK government but the credit depletes rather fast. Transportation over there is just bloody expensive. I mean just anything esp food and transport. Money suckers. haha..after all those years of visits, I think I very well qualify as a tour guide. Relatives galore. Octopus cards a big help?
