Body clock is shot to pieces,its 05.00 in the morning here and I haven't been to sleep yet.That now means 3 hours sleep in the last 48 hours :eek: bad news is I'm not tired,in fact I might go and have a McDs breakfast now just to top myself up before breakfast is served :D .Mike if you want I will check out the price of the camera for you when Nick gets here.

Greetings from Wanchai Hong Kong! :D It's 6.30am and on my way out to have breakfast with my uncle. Arrived safely yesterday but hadn't had a chance to meet up witH Mark/Tracey, Mits/Bav and Teddy/Trisha. But we'll have a good few days ahead to chill out.
Went to 1 Harbour Road at the Grand Hyatt for dinner yesterday and it was breathtaking! Superb food! ...... steamed scallops, braised shark fins soup ...... YUM! :D
Off to the Peninsula this afternoon for dim sum :cool:
Best thing is the currency conversion, 14.6 HK dollar to a pound! Things are 10 times cheaper! :D
See ya .......

We have decided to keep pictures and post them up when we get back.Body clock is now back to normal so we have been to Macau today,it is a beautiful place but very humid.The one thing that strikes me over here is how efficient the public transport is,I never use it at all at home,but here no longer than 3 minutes for an underground train.Even the ferry to Macau was quick and easy.The whole place seems to run at high speed 24 hours a day,and we absolutely love it here,and we will be coming back again next year.
