You people aren't updating nearly as much as you should...I need news...I'm getting very lonely here :(
The weather has turned to the shits again. It's warm and raining and humid. It's so humid where I'm staying at the moment the walls are wet and the paint can be scraped off the walls. The sun has dissapeared again...
Yesterday I went milling around Tsim Sha Tsui and Mong Kok. Tsim Sha Tsui is an uber-swanky area with all the nice hotels and big designer shops. Mong Kok is cool...SO BUSY (Mong Kok is literally 'Busy Point' in Chinese). It's awesome at night though, big neon signs and huge crowds of people. They have to close most of the roads at night for all the pedestrians. Mong Kok has every kind of shop imaginable and the Ladies Market, which is very popular with tourists (the markets have kinda cheap and crappy Bali-type stuff). There's a street in Mong Kok that just sells sport shoes...I bought a pair of pink and black chucks for $30.
Today i think i'm going to wander around, public transport is quite expensive here though so I'll see where my spare change can take me.
