2 (sorta 3) days left :-(

Haha, today was a totally failed day.  We had planned to take a tram all the way out to Shau Kei Wan and see the Coastal Defense Museum, but we got a late start, and then the right tram didn't exist, and then after we had gotten onto the wrong one (it went close, but we woulda had to have taken a cab the rest of the way) we talked to a random French guy from Harvard who noticed in his guide book that a) the museum was closed on Sundays and b) even if it had been open, it would have closed an hour before, so there went that idea.
We decided to just skip to our second plan, which was to go to Stanley Market all the way on the south end of HK Island, so we went all the way back to Admiralty Sta. (pretty much back where we started) to find the right bus.  We reached Stanley at around 7 o'clock... just in time for all the shops to close.  We did find a couple of cool things at this one place, and then we hit up a Vietnamese/Thai restaurant that had food that was too complicated to eat, and cause all the waiters to laugh at our incompetence.  We ended up home at like, 10-something, and then continued Yossi's Woody Allen education by watching Annie Hall, which he loved, and honestly, for all it's over-played... so did I.
Tomorrow?  Heritage Museum!  And I think this time Jerry's coming with us, so we won't get lost, and might actually accomplish our plans -- wish us luck!

p.s.  See how concise I can be when I don't have someone interrupting every two sentences?
