Eeeee
Oh my goodness I feel like cack. This is definately turning into one of those holidays you absolutely shouldn't ever have. :(
I'm so ill! :( I have a cold thing, and a cough due to asthma, with a temperature as well, and when you're already in a very hot country, there really isn't much respite. Everyone's gone shopping now and left me to recover cos we have a big eating day tomorrow, but I don't feel like eating, or moving, or doing anything really. I just wanna go home!
It's quite good actually - i've bought all the things that I've set out to buy. A camera (Canon IXUS 950si), some new eyes, a pretty dress (purple, nonetheless), a UV filter for my big camera, and, erm that was it. I've had plenty of durian, and fruit, and eaten icecream til my head froze, so I think I'm good. Maybe I only need to be in HK for a week. :)
The public transport here is awesome. We have an Octopus card (very much like London's Oyster card) but you can use it to go on buses, trains, undergrounds, mini buses, pay for your parking, pay for your shopping, they're even developing it for taxis! It's crazy! So very convenient! And the links for each transport system is so efficient, with everything always being on time. If only the English transport system was like that. Well, at least I have the good ol' 135 :)
Anyway, I think I'm going to go and see the maid (yes, every family in HK has a maid, it's ridiculous!) and then have a bit of a sleep. I think this day of rest is very much welcome for my aching body. Wooo!
