skribblez9's video: Cwalk Around Asia - Hong Kong China - PART 1

happy chinese new year =) sorry to those who wanted to see part 2 of seoul, korea. i got back from hong kong on feb 1 and was supposed to finish editing/uploading seoul, korea part 2, but i decided to edit/upload this one instead because chinese new year was coming up. but yeah, a bit late for that lol :( took me a while to edit still exhausted from crappy flight. hehe i wasn't really looking forward to flying to hong kong after a string of two bad flights (tokyo -- seoul and seoul -- manila), but the plane decided to be nice for a change. most of the flight was smooth, no real turbulence, and landing was perfect - didn't feel it. so yep, that was definitely a great start on our journey through the land that made more than half of everything in our home (and probably also yours ;D) hong kong... they have some crazy street food here haha. one thing i remember trying was pig intestine. it was chewy and it smelled like piss, and if i can remember correctly, it tasted a bit pissy too. that was something different.. i guess. LOL. very crowded. often find myself getting dizzy from all the people walking past so fast. :D maybe because we were there in the period before chinese new year, i don't know. when the train comes, it's a race to the seats. many times people literally run to a seat. nevermind the people getting out of the train, "move b!tch i'm goin in, i'm goin in!" ahahaha. no racism meant. just something funny i noticed. heaps of markets here. you can find anything and everything in these markets seriously clothes and so much more.. it's just a bit awkward sometimes when you walk past some shop full of dildos and vibrators and you see some old men looking at the goods. but yeah i found myself buying the most random things like lasers, household items, etc. had many fun times with the sales people in markets. some lines i often heard from them were "good idea" (after demonstrating what their product does), "very cheap for you la". it's also fun to bargain with them. they quote you 100 hk$ and you say "100$ no goot. 50$! happy new year" sometimes they smile and say "ok la". if not they just give you a long "noooooooo" with a matching o_o face :D haha i just find them cute lol. most of them. just negotiating with them will make your day! was really glad i got to go with whole family this time around. just me my mum dad and sister. nothing much else to say except that it was a great experience and i would recommend hong kong to anyone. well hope you like the video :) and yup, the walk is still lacking. but i think i did a bit better than in korea. oh well lol. enjoy and expect part 2 up soon!
