In HongKong.

Arrived safely in time 13.00 at Kowloon station, grabbed a cab which took us directly to the flat in North Point. Everything seems to be the same, just like how I left it 4 months ago.
I rested for a while and then went straight to Mongkok to meet up with my childhood friend Brian, whom I've known for nearly 18 years (I'm 20).
Went to Sincerity travel on Argyle street to sort out the problem with the agency since they can never manage to deliver our tickets. We're expected to leave on Tuesday so I guess that made it priority one. The travel agency solved the problem and I'll have my ticket by tomorrow.
Hong Kong is great in many ways and I think that lots of people might agree that the food is one of the hightlights. HK-food is the greatest when it comes to Chinese cuisine.

We had lots of streetfood and several rounds of fresh mango juices; later on, I suggested dinner at Java road markets top floor (you know, that kind of market where they sell everything from fresh fish to rainboots). This "restaurant" is famous and there are always lots of people lining up for hours outside. The restaurant itself isn't that spectacular; in fact quite shabby. The staff are not wearing uniforms according to dresscodes, the plates are made of plastic and the environment quite stressful and noisy; but the food..Heaven.

Wanted to check out the HK nightlife scene at Lan kwai fang but nobody had the energy so I decided to stay in for tonight.

Over and out.
