HK: Day 6

Note: This was supposed to be posted yesterday. Blogspot would not let me post...

Well gang, I’m happy to announce that I’ve finally overcome jet lag. I went to sleep at the late, late hour of 11:30pm and slept all the way till 9:30am. It was glorious. I can only hope that changing back to regular time won’t be as daunting of a task…

Anyways, today was our day of rest. Bummed around until 10:30 when we finally went downstairs to eat breakfast. Noodles for breakfast – again. Only on vacation though... I don’t know if I could do this on a regular basis.

Since today was our day of rest, I don’t have much to report. Ev and I ventured to a mall in Kowloon Tong and of course I ended up buying a couple things. Probably the shortest shopping trip ever, including travel time! We were pretty much on a mission.

Came home to catch the tail end of my mom’s facial. Afterwards we looked at my aunt’s past clients’ photos. She’s an aesthetician who helps to beautify brides on their special day. I didn’t realize how talented she is! She does everything! Facials, makeup, hair, designs the dresses… You name it she does it. Pretty much recruited her to doll me up on my day... when it comes. Ha.

The only set plan we had for the day was dinner with my late aunt’s husband. But before dinner, the highlight of my day was passing two gwai-lo (white) pubescent boys, and they were talking about chicks I suppose. The one was describing his dream girl: “Tall? Hot? Wassup!!” It was actually hilarious and made my day.

So anyways, my uncle took us to a place I’d classify to be fine Chinese dining. The food was MSG-free and deeelicious… especially the fish hand picked by my uncle. So fresh, so good. I could have eaten the whole thing. If you haven’t noticed, I’m a huge fan of seafood.

Pretty stoked for my facial. My aunt popped my brother’s huge zit. THAT was quite the sight. Should be a good time. I’ll keep you posted.

Well that pretty much sums it up. How’s Canada? Did I mention I miss home?
