Just like old times

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY TO ALL OF YOU MUMS.

We woke up to pissing down rain today. So we slept in.

We had a lunch of dumplings (like we ate in Shanghai every day) and soup, had our coffee and free internet at the coffee shop, then went to Harbour City shopping mall. This is a HUGE complex right on the water, full of over 700 shops...most (if not all) are way over our price range, but it was still fun to walk around. We then took the MTR across the harbour to HK Island and wandered around the Central area. We got some photo CDs burned and had a few beers at the Hong Kong Brewery while we waited. We found some cute small streets full of cool pubs and restaurants, a great place to hang out on a Friday or Saturday night I'm sure. We could definitely see ourselves living in Hong Kong! Later in the evening we met up with our friend Jarrod, an Aussie we met in Cambodia who lives here in Hong Kong. We spent the evening hanging out with him, just catching up, enjoying his photos of Angkor Wat and having a great time.

It was a school night for Jarrod, so we said our goodbyes and headed back to Kowloon on the MTR. We had a few things we wanted to buy cheaply, so we made a spontaneous decision to go back to the Temple Street markets to get them. It was another late night out in Hong Kong, but even being a Sunday night, we had plenty of company.
