... come again another day .... which it did, annoyingly so!!!! Before coming to HK, I told G about those dreaded and dreadful HK weekends, the weekends where it rains when you come home wet from work on Friday night, wake up to rain on Saturday, call of any evening extravaganza because of fear of being washed away and are utterly amazed that when you wake up on Sunday …. Yes … it is still raining.
Guess what happened while we were there? … Yes exactly that!
We still had a great and action packed two days – initially relishing the fact that we were staying in a nice hotel (courtesy Air Miles, gathered on all my trips around Asia while working for mm) with a brand new bathroom, windows that actually closed properly and no mosquitoes in sight; then meeting up with friends (and the ever-reliable Chinese Elvis in Lan Kwai Fong) and getting all their news! After the last few weeks on the road it was fabulous to meet up with people that you know and be in a place where you know where to find great food and have a drink, without the help of our ever present friend, the Lonely Planet Guidebook. It was great seeing everybody there and after this little pit stop on “home turf” we felt more than prepared to conquer China.
