Kowloon, Hong Kong
Well - from the polite and serene capital of Japan to absolute madness!! The food is far better however - Peter can actually eat now. If the Japanese were to open a fast food chain to rival McDonalds instead of the standard "would you like fries with that?" they would have "would you like a raw egg with that?"........nice - not!!
Anyway we are in a four star hotel in Kowloon with a bloody swimming pool on the roof - not sure how us lowly backpackers managed ...
