In todays post I thought I would talk about my time in Hong Kong we went to Hong Kong in 2008 seems like only Yesterday time really does fly doesn't it?.
We went to Hong Kong as my ex partners best friend lives in Hong Kong so we went to visit him.
I have to admit Hong Kong was never a place that I longed to visit my Ex wanted to go and visit his friend and asked me to go with him and I love to Travel so I jumped at the chance Hong Kong is the furthest I have travelled so far.
I think we stayed in Kowloon Bay from what I remember
We went to Hong Kong for 10 Days it was very Humid when we went and as per usual I ended up with a ton of Mosquito Bites down my Legs and on my Ankles they hurt so bad I could barely walk.
Even though we went to visit my ex partners friend we also did quite a few Touristy things which was nice that I got to see some of Hong Kong I just wish I could find that memory card with all the Photos that I took of my time in Hong Kong.
One of my Favourite Places that we visited whilst in Hong Kong has to be Disneyland if you have seen my Previous Posts you will know how much I love Disneyland and this won't come as a shock that we had to visit Disneyland.
It's a lot smaller then the one in Paris I still really enjoyed the Parades the Characters looked very different though.
If I ever find that memory card I will do a separate post so you can see what I mean I just love Disneyland I'd love to go to the big one in Orlando one day everyone says this is the best one out of all of them.
We also went shopping because I stupidly only packed one pair of jeans as I checked the weather before we flew out and it said it was going to be sunny there was a few days when It really rained heavily so I needed to get another pair of jeans. We went to the Calvin Klein Store to pick a pair up and they are my oldest pair of jeans so they were definitely an investment and I don't think they were actually that expensive I'm sure I got them in the sale.
We went to Hong Kong Botanical Gardens which is so Beautiful so Peaceful I loved it there.
The only other problem that I found while I was in Hong Kong was the food I'm really not a big Chinese Food Eater when I go out for a Chinese Meal I tend to play it safe and stick to Sweet and Sour Chicken but it just didn't taste the same as what I was used to so I was glad I had my creature comfort Junk Food restauraunt's such as Mcdonalds, Burger King and Pizza Hut I don't know how I would have Survived :)
Where we way staying was a short Boat Ride from the Beach I love going on Boats that one was almost as bad as the Boat Ride I experienced in Turkey the waters were really Choppy I couldn't wait to get off the Boat for awhile it was making me Sea Sick :)
I managed to find a few photos that I took they were in one of my Facebook Albums I took much more then this though.
This was the Boat Ride that we took to get to the Beach I thought we would be okay as it's so much bigger then the smaller boats that I am used to the weather was quite bad that day and it was just really choppy the water which made the boat go all over the place.
I think this was taken from when I was on the Boat from what I remember
I loved watching this man Paint In the Street this man was the First Ever Street Artist that I had ever seen and now Street Artists are everywhere mainly I see people Paint like this when I go to Manchester.
We went to stay in a lovely hotel right on the beach for the night it was gorgeous can't remember the name of it though not very helpful I know but thought I would mention it as it was one of the things that we did while we were in Hong Kong.
I really enjoyed my time in Hong Kong even though my legs were full of Mosquito Bites but I was happy to come home I was actually getting Home Sick when I was here and that doesn't normally happen to me .
