So in we hit September oh my goodness can't believe we are now into another month!! As if it is now September!! I know at home you new kiddies will have started school and we do hope all is going well!! The nights will be drawing in and to think that here we are only just getting into the summer is crazy - now we really are on the other side of the world!! Well we headed out to Ocean Park a similar type of Alton Towers although it was a little bit different lol!! As you walked around you see the different activities from seeing the Giant Pandas to Hot Air Balloon rides which unfortunately weren't working when we visited due to the 'too windy' conditions!! But we headed up to the other side of the mountain by cable car to see more exhilarating rides and the most amazing dolphin show!! I even managed to get Amy to go on a ride then went upside down 3 times - faster and more exciting than the Pleasure Beach @ Blackpool lol!! On the Tuesday we headed to Stanley Market we expected this to be huge however we arrived to find only a smaller number of stalls so we had a wonder round the village and stalls and ate in a very quiet place - life is dull without music we realised!! So then we trekked back to Causeway yes the mighty Causeway only because it rained when you guys in England are enjoying the Sun!! OK so we hit Wednesday - another week here before we jump into Thailand!! We went to Kowloon crossing the sea on the Star Ferry and went to the Space Museum which was very cool!! Thursday brought us to our last night at the hostel - Backpackers Hostel that so far was our most expensive although convenient - we got out of there to save dosh!! (Nearly £12 a night - very expensive!!) We went to Shek - O - Beach today though and was awesome - it was very sunny and it was by most the best beach on Hong Kong Island!! Friday we ventured to a part of Hong Kong Island called Aberdeen - no not in Scotland!! Here was meant to be the Floating Market and Restaurant although we didn't want to get off the bus! - it was very run down and quite frankly only dossers ok people who are not as fortunate as us lived there but basically we didn't even stay there an hour we were back on our bus back to what we called Phone City!! Lol!! So as we had a cheap day out doing nothing in that place we then went shopping - oohh!! Yes we did buy something that would actually save us money in the future in some way - a laptop!! Well you would never think it but we did because now we can write up blogs like these!!Ok I hope you are not getting bored!! On the Saturday we ventured to The Peak a famous building/village at the top of a mountain and you must check out the pics that relate to this if you haven't yet!! It was 428m above sea level and when you go up the mountain on a tram the buildings actually looked @ 45 degree angle as it was that steep!! On the Sunday we went back over to Kowloon to see the Kung Fu Corner - martial arts and Chinese celebrations in a beautiful park!! So this concludes the third week.
