Our all too short stay in Hong Kong is now at an end and we are at the airport. The flight is delayed by nearly two hours at least. We had fun getting to the airport first of all the taxi driver drove very gingerly as the luggage was more than filling his boot and then we got to check in at the metro station when we discovered that Les was the only one of us whose visa was not on his passport. We were quite prepared to leave him behind !!!

Our view of Hong Kong – Huge skyscrapers, clean shopping centres, lots of people and CURVED escalators!!!!! That was quite an experience. We've all been up and down, but never round corners. We also think taking the credit crunch into consideration everything is a lot mor expensive here than 3 years ago.
