HK Pics and Sg pic
HK has been a great experience... and definitely it is a great city to live in... for not more than 6 months... I think any one would go nuts there (Steve was a good sample of it ;oD)
We had a great time, and Divia, Ramez and Steve were incredibly kind in showing HK's night live... though we suffer it the day after. Best place of the night: Gekko... be brave and try to find it if you are ever in HK... it is not an easy task, but it worths the effort.
It was great to have a drink after a whole day of markets. Specially when you are as lucky as me to go with two girls ready to buy everything they see. Great experience honestly. I had a free training in Bargain, with the extra lesson on "how to get your money back in the Lady's Market" by Nicola Griffiths. That was great.
Leigh wasn't much softer. She manage to get a Balenciaga Hand Bag so cheap that the other sellers in the street want to rebuy it from her. Unbelievable.
The next day we went off to see the largest outside sitting bronce Buddha (there might be a bigger one made of stone... but when it comes to bronce... this is the one!!). This was in Lantau Island, and I thought it was the right time to take a pic with my travel buddies. It is good to introduce them to the spiritual life at an early age... well... that is what they did with me, and I am now a full agnostic believer. Isobella and Harvey.
Then we had the fantastic idea of going hyking... and in the pic you can see the wisdom path... obviously didn't affect us... as we took the wrong turn, lost half an hour, and had to speed up for two hours down the hill... I am still in pain from that hyke!! But it was a great thing to do. Was wicked to see the female monks... I didn't know they also saved their heads... they all looked like Osku... weird, trust me!
And finally... the night skyline from the peak... after the light show display. Very interesting seen that people from this massive corporatation use their buildings to do this... and also thinking that some of them are rivals... cool... I am sure it is good fen shui... It must be.
Finally Singapore, where I am now. I don't like it that much... so I haven't got many pics, and I am actually planning to leave as soon as I can. Which is as soon as I finish to write this blog. Here is a pic of ChinaTown... but is not as cahotic as HK... and everybody speaks a bit of English... While HK was great madness!!! It can also be that I am on my own now... and I miss N & L... yes... I think is probably that.
Anyway... I am off to Melaka... if I find the right bus, of course. I will take it from there... and let you know how are things going.
Just one more thing! Thanks for all the comments and emails... I miss you all a lot! I didn't know that so many people were going to be reading this. Hope you are all fine.
Dani, muchas gracias por escribir... cuidate mucho! A los demas tambien... pero es que de Dani hacia mucho mas que no sabia nada! Un besazo para todos... Me piro de aqui!!!!

We miss you too!! Discovering HK with you was so much fun and I have great memories.... who can forget the human sized lemons, goldfish market and the hundreds of dodgy appartments we visited to get the world's best fake handbag deals! ... and don't worry, after 3 days my legs are still aching from that bloody hike!
hopefully see you again soon on another leg of your adventure.

Hola Javi,
Estoy poniéndome al día con el blog, y la verdad que me ha sorprendido lo de Sg, los sling como dice Ben, y unos cuantos locales están muy bien, pero claro, sin los "monumentos2 de HK, seguro que no te gustó tanto ;o9
cuídate, voy a seguir leyendo.
Un saludo,
Manuel (Lobeira...)
