Kip and I spent the day on the Central side. We took the escalators up to the mid-levels and then wandered through an amazing little street market. It was really fun to see the domestic side of Hong Kong and explore neighborhoods.



After some shopping advice from my best friend and guru, Jodie, I headed to the Ladies Market with Kip and another Blue Coat friend, Stephanie. I don't have any pictures from the market because it was too crowded to even get my camera out and frankly, I was too busy concentrating on bargain shopping!
I won't go into every detail but let's just say the evening ended in a cramped, second story room, behind a locked gate, full of handbags with me, hot, sweaty, and demanding all of Kip and Stephanie's remaining cash. I think I had a scary look on my face because they immediately handed it over and then dragged me out of there and into a cab back to the hotel. I didn't even get to look at the jewelry!
Everyone in China takes pictures making the peace sign so of course Kip and I had to do it too! Next stop, Sydney and a BIG SURPRISE!
