Hong Kong

Or should I say McDonalds? Most of our time in Hong Kong was spent at McDonalds! We just missed our hamburger and French fries, which we hadn?t eaten in a while. We spent two full days in Hong Kong, the city of sky-scrapers. We were wondering ? how do you fit 7.5 million people in one small city? Sky scrapers? everywhere. It was pretty amazing. There were people everywhere. The first day we had a tour of a few of main attractions in Hong Kong - we went to a market (which is a must do in every town and city we?ve learned), we visited the boat village and toured around it by boat, a jewelry warehouse as well as a spectacular view of Hong Kong from Mt. Victoria. After that we checked out the trade center which is also Times Square, a big shopping mall and toured it and a bit more of the city.
The second day we spent a lot of time relaxing as we were pretty tired. We did visit another market, the ladies market where they are supposed to have really good deals. In our case though the man bought more than the lady.
Then Tuesday we headed for home?
