So, the flight was pretty awful!
After thinking he'd booked a seat with extra leg room, Phil had not one smidgen of extra leg room. After watching two mediocre movies (chick flicks, because I'm not allowed at home), I passed out from dehydration into the arms of an unsuspecting Chinese man who just wanted to use the toilet. Two more mediocre chick flicks and one horrendous "English breakfast" later, and we set down in Hong Kong.
Having not slept a wink on our 12 hour flight, I conked out on the transfer bus, and woke up just before we landed in a sea of people and neon lights on Nathan Street, Tsim Sha Tsui. After checking into our deceptively named "USA Hotel", we showered and headed out exploring.
On the way to a late night market, we stopped for a plate of fried rice and shredded chicken. I may be converting to vegetarianism, as the chicken was hot but, basically, raw, and that seems to be how it goes! We had ordered water, but apparently if you don't drink beer, you don't get your drink.
Back at hotel USA, we slept like babies (thank the Lord for earplugs), and thankfully neither of us has contracted food poisoning.
This is really good! Looking forward 2 reading more :)
