Day 1:
Well we have now arrived in Hong Kong!!!
Everything here is massive!!!....after finally managing to find our driver at the airport we were shown to a chauffer driven air conditioned Mercedes Benz for our transfer to the hotel.
On our arrival at the hotel our booking was confirmed but the hotel hadn't been informed the room would be paid on account, and so we were asked for our credit card to secure the room :0. This was soon rectified though and soon we were able to have a nice shower and freshen up. We met up with one of Emma's workmates in the evening and ate at a chinese restaurant in Hong Kong's times square. After this we walked around checking out the full lit causeway Bay area before getting a taxi to a bar on one of the pier's on the waterfront in Central for a drink and to look at the skyscrapers!!...awesome.
After being awake for around 30 hours we were ready for bed.
Incidentally, you can get from one end of the island to the other for around £4 by taxi, and the buses, trams and MTR are even cheaper!!
