HK - The place to be: Final Post


Hong Kong was amazing. There was so much walking and taking buses and walking and seeing new places. I loved it.
One of the things was so different from Taiwan (at least where we live) was how many tourists were there. Where we are there are no white people, we’re literally the only white people in our town so everywhere we go people stare and say hello and all that good stuff; there, no one did any of that because they’re so used to us white folk.
Another thing was how many people spoke English. It was kinda sad how many people knew English actually. We would walk down the road and have to be careful what we say and how loud we say it here. Here, in Taiwan, we can pretty much say whatever because people don’t speak that much English.
Also, there were literally no mopeds. I saw one motorcycle and that was the closest thing to moped they had. AND they drive on the other side of the road (like in England), I thought that that was pretty cool. In Hong Kong most of the people take buses or MRT’s or walk. Although there were a lot of cars there were a gazillion more buses.
Now some of the random pictures that I took during my stay ;)

We're just little ducklings, that's all..
 This was Obama's Restaurant or something silly.
 Yes, I did find this awesome.
 Doesn't this look delicious?
 This license plate was pretty legit! "HEHE, HAHA." Amber saw one that said "BIG MAC"
 You tell me what it is..Pretty sure it's an Olympic torch.
 Make sure you stay out of it.
 Woot woot!! That's where I live.
 Square toilets?
 Self-explanatory
I've decided that Hong Kong money is the coolest. It's blue and purple AND it's plastic
 Just a taste of America in Hong Kong
 Pretty cool views if I do say so myself.
 I'm pretty sure this is Franklin the turtle.
 This was at Ocean Park. What amusement park has luggage for sale?
 Camellia's Aunt...She was hysterical!
 This better not be Hong Kong fashion
 Jared eating Oreos? HORROR!
 You can't really see it that well but if you look closely enough you can see a mini cooper. That's cool cause it was a legit mini cooper with the steering wheel on the right side.
 He found his twin in the airport.
Oh, nothing much. Just a sign from God that my Mom needs to come visit me.
 Ambz and me so happy to be back with our comfort drinks......
 and back in Taiwan!
 
Once again, I’m incredibly sorry for the bad grammar and boringness this might have brought to you. I hope you at least had fun looking at the pictures.
