Last(ing) Impressions

013b
So pleased to have found this shop – I so hate it when my stationery is dishonest
014b Goodbye Hong Kong airport … Linz was really pleased that this was not our next flight ….. it was going to Lagos and we reckoned it was probably 10 tons of mobile phones

Our Impressions of Hong Kong in a nutshell

    • 7 million people but extremely efficient
    • dynamic and alive, frantic flow of people, trolleys, traffic
    • very clean and organised underground train stations
    • clean streets – no cigarette butts – amazing considering every second person smokes
    • hard workers – 10 and 11 hour days are the norm
    • space is at an absolute premium – most apartments are 300 sq feet in total (the size of our lounge & dining)
    • don’t waste makeup – it’s so humid it takes 17 minutes for it to slide from its start position on the forehead, to get to its final resting place on the chin
