Zoe and Ed's Travels
Hello,
We are in Hong Kong and having a great time. We haven't updated our site for quite a while: after Xian we went to Chengdu and saw th Giant Pandas (including a little baby one, aww). Then we flew to Guillin as we couldn't hack the 31 hours on a train, and from there a short bus ride to Yangshuo, which is a really touristy place. It is surrounded by beautiful karst scenery, and feels like a Mediterranean resort. We enjoyed being able to get western food again; no more chopsticks! We hired bikes to get out into the countryside a bit and take in more of the hills. Then we got a sleeper bus to the border to Hong Kong. Hong Kong is a really good city; it feels quite like London, but it's hot! It is very cosmopolitan and there are so many shops it is unbelievable. We went over to Macau for the day yesterday but were a little disappointed. Hong Kong is more expensive than China, but still things are not too expensive so we are enjoying ourselves. We have got three more days here before we fly to India on Friday.
