So we made it back from Hong Kong. Wow what a choice city/country/island whatever you wish to call it. Its so different to China, so clean and peaceful! Its a city that never sleeps, no matter what time you go out at night there is always people just hanging doing nothing. The shopping was amazing although it was kinda out of our league! There must be a lot of money involved in people as all the shops were very expensive. Or it could have just been the fact we were spending the Yuan as apposed to the dollar. It was great, although we didnt get to do anything other than wonder the streets! We plan on going back and exploring it properly as apparently the biking and hiking is great once you get out of the central area. Next time!

So the train ride there and back was all good. 12hours of lying on our bunk is a bit tough but you get there in the end. Lots of time to read and sleep!!!

We are now heading to Hainan tomorrow for who knows how long! Not to sure if we are looking forward to it or not as its all sounding very disorganized! But on the upside it'll be warm and we can learn to surf!! Word has it that its spendy down there to... like 50yuan for a burger... we used to 18yuan. Lets hope there is local cheep food too!

So anyways not much else, will keep you posted on how everything goes on Hainan and what our roll there actually is....

If anyone is wishing to get hold of us either email, skype or MSN. Im sure we will be online lots although I was told there is no power at the flat they currently have!! Think that is going to change though. It better!!
