Catch up session

Another friend from Sydney is here in Hong Kong for good. I've lost count now of how many friends have come by to HK. And more that is coming back. Jen will be here next week and Alice will be here sooooon too !!

I remember sitting and chatting and having similar conversations that I had today with J but with my gf's in Feb 07. He's still adapting and getting use to the HK environment. Being in HK for 2 weeks, still dividing everything by an exchange rate of 6.9 (now 7!!!), and I still do that now! Just laughing and talking about how cheap a milk tea and "afternoon tea" was and how cheap a taxi rides are and just general living in HK. We both agreed that we HAVE TO stop this "conversion thinking". We're earning honkie dollars now... no longer earning aussie dollars!

We started off shopping in Causeway Bay, cheese shopping at City Super and then heading to LKF for drinks. Having a D & M chat for 5 hours non-stop over white wine was something I haven't done in HK in a very a long time =)

LKF was packed, even when we got there at 6pm. They had a Californian Carnival. It was sooo crowded. I can imagine it just being like this on Christmas Eve or New Years Eve!!!
