Back in Hong Kong

Back to Hong Kong for some serious fun, Disneyland is on the agenda and I'm not sure what else...we caught the train back, it's so strange when you get to the station you have to line up behind doors that have your train number on them, at a certain time they open those doors and you can go trough to immigration but not when you want to when they want you to....then after going through that you have to wait until they let you go down to the train, now if they don't get you processed in time it's too bad for you and you miss that train....the train either shuts it's doors early and starts going and then the station guy blows the whistle....we had to catch two taxi's to get to the hotel cause we all couldn't fit with the bags in one....have been up to both the Ladies Market and Temple Street Market to get some jeans and a top. But the best news is we found a laundry, Oh I forgot to tell you in Guangzhou they had washing machines for $40 AUD brand new, we could have brought one of those done the washing and then donated it....I also brought a bangle today at the jade market it looks like it's made out of a sprite bottle or a green beer bottle, but it's suppose to be volcanic emerald glass...I love it and only one lady had this stuff at the market so it's either real or sprite bottles melted down...

This mornings view out of the boys room...

Salted eggs

This guy was jogging around the roof of the building.

The kids came out and did their exercise routine...all in line of course.

On the way to the jade market.

Natural Amber, these were so expensive.

The one on the left was $90,000 Yuan $18,000 Aud

Even the small pieces were expensive.

My sprite bottle bangle

It's on to stay as well...

Don't know what all of these things are but they smelt fabulous...

Apartments are everywhere....huge ones..

In the taxi only ladies and children can sit in the front.

Our train.

New hotel and the boys room.

We still have Christmas stuff around, the strangest thing is the Christmas carols are still playing.

Mammoth tusk it was $330,000 AUD they had two one was carved and it was more expensive.Would you get that through Customs, we looked at the page and it says you can't bring in tusks. not sure if it would make a difference in what sort of tusk it was...

A funky little resturant.
