Today was spent mostly travelling, with 2 flights to get us to Hong Kong before our flight back to the UK tomorrow. Arriving in Hong Kong early evening we made a mad dash across town to meet up with one of Shelley's friends and colleagues who lives over here. The holes in my geography knowledge were shown up once again, I knew that Hong Kong was an island but didn't realise there were several other islands and part of the Chinese mainland, that were once under British control, now part of whats know as the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region or HK SAR.
After catching cabs all over the place between the islands and mainland I have to admit that I'm totally disoriented, the beers over dinner didn't really help to focus my sense of direction on the return trip to our hotel on the mainland.
Highlights: It was great to catch up with Michelle and learn about life in HK
