Hong Kong, East v West

Hi all

Well i made it to hong kong on Friday and spent the weekend climbing with some friends,a few of whom i met when i was back in yangshuo over the Xmas period.
Am just about to set of to apply for the China visa this morning which will probably take the until the end of the week to process.

I'm stopping with a lad call Bon whom lives out on the Island of Lamma, which despite being a fair size the Island is sparsely populated in comparison to Hong Kong, perhaps it because it has no cars and better still no McDonald's, KFC or any of the other big name monstrosity's which appear to exist on every street corner in Hong Kong and on the mainland here, makes for a wecome change.

Well im off to sort out the visa and wander around town, take care all and a happy chinese new year. which was great back in yangshuo.
