Henning had once again considered a bit wild, "Flo, how about even with HONG KONG? In Japan we have already seen (almost) everything. "
Well, I thought, when Dad came back from there, he told a lot of exciting things, so why not? But then came
swine flu to strengthen and we thought for a moment whether we should really take the risk to us or not. Ultimately us but more the itch to travel! (This is even more so the pun had busy to keep in mind!)
Henning travel on a Japanese tour operators. It should also be fairly priced, but as in real life so come the hidden costs only revealed when already almost too late is all to say ...
But from the money we do not prefer to report but in the journey a Japanese tour group! (Is this really the way you would imagine? All photographs constantly on? Well, most of the photos probably has always made Henning, but oh well ...)
Anyway, I had to even to come to Hong Kong, according to the Shinkansen Tokyo go, because our flight left at 9 and there would be anything others have been impossible (for this example, a hidden extra charges). So we had to check to be too early by 5 clock left the apartment at the time. Then the big surprise: there was no tour group, we should take the (thankfully) only in Hong Kong! So it was relatively relaxed to Taipei 台北 to stop. There, some confusion, because our flight was moved to another gate and as a destination was not given Hong Kong but Jakarta, but we still managed to have it then!
The flights were all done very well by Air China and it felt even among the small turbulence in good hands.
leave when the aircraft in Taipei, it was then a bit muggy, but that should be nothing compared to what we should expect in Hong Kong! Dad had warned me though, but you can always imagine that!
The methods of entry have changed significantly but then, it was still in Henning as we meet on the moving walkways to the output temperature hovered measured! So he had caught the travel bug and really heated and he was taken by the cameras detect heat! But was probably a false alarm!
any case, with the usual entry forms were also distributed forms with respect to the swine flu and you had to fill out. Since I can not even lie, I then Truthfully also checked that I had a sore throat because I had a cold until a few days before the flight. First, the
had no episodes, but apparently has but then someone looked at my note still time and I was led into a quarantine zone! Henning was only one time from the socks and I just wonder what would come now! So I had a similar form, which I had already filled fill again, then my fever was measured in both ears and then I was presented to a doctor, who again filled in a form and as a basis for the other two took ... (bureaucracy ...)
Anyway, I have been a few questions in good, but under the mask, unfortunately not quite made clear English. Including if I did not want for 7 days for observation in a hospital and my companion the same time! I do not remember what exactly I have understood, but I've said yes only one time (in Japan that is always good), fortunately, the young lady asked the question again and then I could still convince that I but not needed! Wow, came as I can get into a sweat (fortunately they gave me was not for time measured fever! But she gave me then like so given a mask which they wear in Asia, many, I found it but not as useful because I always fogged glasses ...
The first night we had even "exit" and so we went to us to seek "market Night" the. We then met by chance yet to include the Jade Market! These were many impressions! And so it should go the next day on! For the morning at 8 we should meet in the lobby with Candy and our Japanese tour group (naklar!) together! The group leadership was then only in Japanese, which unfortunately led to my being shut down by sometime and not really even heard what Candy told since so into the microphone!
We drove at least initially by bus to downtown and continued from there with the star fairy about to "correct" Hong Kong. There where, currently, the tallest building in Hong Kong is.
There we visited a temple and then took a ride on the longest escalator in the world! Then a boat in the marina and then lunch at a Chinese restaurant. After that was unfortunately a sort of loose coffee ride and we were out in special shops for jewelry and silk to Yet. Unfortunately for those who want something for there was no place in our budget! We would rather have the dollars spent in the street markets and probably always paid too much! Actually, the original price was not soo already high, but who was then also to negotiate! Well, I've bought and paid for a picture instead of just 110HK 160HK $ $, but they were probably still $ 30 too much! (~ 10HK $ -= 1 Euro)
We have then lowered down by 15 clock of the group, because the program was over. But we wanted to experience a 20 clock, the laser show in the city! So what do the remaining 5 hours?
Well, we wanted to even the most Buddha in the world to see, so go there! As we sat in the car and crossed a mountain then unfortunately appeared before us a wall of clouds! So that we could not the Buddha magnificent full view from a distance. For this offered us a fantastic spectacle with the clouds and the mountain ridges!
The laser show by 20 clock we have reached in good time and enjoyed despite the onset of drizzle!
The next day we went back to their own Faust are gone and almost succumbed to the heat!
'm So I entered a barber shop, because of the time Madde was not endure! Was very interesting to see the comparison to the Japanese hairdressers! And how to communicate well, if you do not master the language of the opposite! Afternoon we went back to "correct" Hong Kong.

So much for swine flu, and (travel) fever!
In Hong Kong, we were greeted by Ricky, who brought us to the hotel. (In Hong Kong have many English names because of the colonial past)

The hotel was a 19-storey 3 *** hotel and we have spent the night in the 18th floor! The hotel was in the north of the city and so we had a great view, but unfortunately 18 floors were not for me soo high that we would have everyone else can ignore ...
Still, it was spectacular!

To peek at Victoria enjoy the view over the city of 7 million madness!
Although we are accustomed by now, Tokyo has a lot, but so many skyscrapers like Hong Kong (6300!) Then in Tokyo but are not.

Since we were exhausted, we treated ourselves to dinner then a マサージ massage! The two petite Chinese then had to do quite well, have made their case very well! The next day we were picked up by a third companion, and flew back to Tokyo, from where it then for me straight off the plane (this time without quarantine, but with renewed fingerprint scan!) In the night bus, me safely back to Kyoto brought! I was lucky and was able to get some sleep!
went so over an exciting long weekend and the gray day internship had me back! The great thing was that I finally had the feeling of being in Asia! So, as I have always imagined my past! Although Japan is not Europe, but stop but very Western-oriented and even though Hong Kong is almost english, yes, it had put in many, just in the corner where we slept that "Asiatouch. I loved it and slowly realize that I have my list of best cities for a long time can not be regarded as completed!
