About This Blog


On the 13th of October myself, and my good pal Michael Nelson, will be embarking on a journey starting in Europe, across into Asia, and eventually south to Australia.

Hopefully this blog will allow us to show our family and friends what we see along the way.

Enjoy.

Hong Kong

So we had two stupidly fast paced nights in Hong Kong, as we already had our flight booked, and hadn’t even planned to go to Hong Kong. So we visited islands that make up Hong Kong, and took the Peak tram. An old tram that goes up one of the hills/ mountains surrounding central Hong Kong, so you can see amazing views of Central, and the other Islands nearby.



A lot of the buildings were all lit up at night, which made them pretty impressive to see. Here’s an example.



So Hong Kong is a pretty interesting build of modern and traditional, a lot more in the 21st century than China. For example, spitting is not allowed, not even just in trains and restaurants, but outside as well! A breath of fresh air compared to China’s constant spitting. This picture almost perfectly sums up that idea. Two men, reading, one of which with a magnifying glass, who must have been about 80, while enjoy a cup of McDonalds coffee. Makes me chuckle every time I look at it.
