Asian Adventure Part (n - III)

After the luxurious experience of Shenzehn we crossed the border into Hong Kong, a relatively painless experience. The incredibly efficient metro whisked us into town (using our new Octopus cards to pay...) and with a little difficulty found our hostel (hiding on the 7th floor of a tower block) in Kowloon (cue Bourne Supremacy based excitement from me). We were scheduled to meet up with an old friend Anne Shen in Hong Kong; Anne was an MIT exchange student who was at King's during our second year, she joined us on the King's Affair 2010 Committee and the rest, to use a cliche, is history... Anne was a little delayed in getting to HK so we had a quick explore of the local area and were soon in a world of shopping malls and tannoys with English accents! Having finally rendezvoused with Anne we set off to Hong Kong Island for a wander, and to scale the worlds longest escalator (bit of a let down) and finally see the harbour lights show. Cue photos...

It seems the British left behind some of Our weather...
