31 July 08, Hong Kong
Arrived yesterday from Seoul. We are staying with Vishal who has been a great host. He has a 2 bedroom flat in Central and the view from his balcony is cool. It has been eating good Shanghainese food and going to fancy bars. A real expats place and some roads feel like being in Europe.
Yesterday, we went to a bar in Princess Building where (Mayer Brown has an office) - we were not allowed into the bar, as we were all wearing flip flops ; ). So we went for food near Time Square to a Shanghainese place. Great dimsum and spicy. Home at 2AM.
We have been to Victoria Peak by tram overlooking the river and the lights over the water at night. Very pretty. Also been to big shopping centres, the Wang Chai market, lots of bars and restaurants. We also met up with Adrian from my Peru 2003 trip - who currently works in Hong Kong.
I think our days in Honkers will be one big party ; )
.....and they were...:)
About Me
- Meera Vij-Gupta
- "The real treasure, that we all seek, is never very far; there is no real need to seek it in a distant place, for it lies buried within our own hearts. And yet, there is this strange and persistent fact, that is only after a journey in a distant region, in a new land, that the way to that treasure becomes clear".
