Hong Kong!

Day 1:
I'm safely in Hong Kong! It's kinda weird because we essentially chased the sun around the earth. I haven't seen darkness since the morning I left Winnipeg. So know I'm going to make my way to my hotel. I'll drop you another email in the next day if I don't have Internet at the hotel. I'm pretty tired so I might call it an early night and make the most of tomorrow.

Day 2:
I found my hotel which, is really nice! They put me on the top floor but my view is still another wall. Haha. I got a nice case for my iPod, a small tripod and a protective uv filter for my video camera all for about $70 which is pretty cheap. It's really warm here but the smog definitely keeps the sun hidden, at least I think it's smog. I checked out the other hotel I'll be staying in on the way home, it looks very nice! Had breakfast there which was awesomely good! I pretty much walked around from 8am to 4pm. Kinda figured out the train system and how I'll get back to the airport in two days. Not sure what I'm going to do tomorrow yet but I'll figure it out. I might take a boat across to the island a check it out. My feet are a little sore but the boots feel great! Well, I should probably go find some dinner. Everything is very Americanized, except for the people, I know that wasn't that funny, haha. But really, it feels a lot like New York with almost all the same stores however, there is also a bunch of European stuff which is cool to look at. BUT, I still haven't found a cheap wrist watch which is really surprising! I've seen alot of watches but non are digital or cheap for that matter. Cool city though and I look forward to tomorrow. It's weird, cause the time here is the opposite of winnipeg minus 1hour. So you'll be getting this while I sleep! Anyways, take care.
