First day in Hong Kong p.1

Was supposed to get up real early the following day but it didn't happen. Lagged out I stumbled into the shower at 12.30 and then hit the streets. Took a small little mini busses that runs from Sai Kung to get me to the nearest metro station. Always heard that the Hong Kong tube was supposed to be great and it was all true. Lots of space, everything clearly marked and it was clean close to immaculate. London has a bit of catching up to do.

Got off at Kowloon to check out the Wong Tai Sin temple which is one of the largest in Hong Kong. It was really cool to see an oasis of calmness in an otherwise really busy city and it did affect me in a very positive way. Sat there for a while, checked out the locals praying before heading down towards the south of Kowloon to catch the Star Ferry across to Hong Kong island again. Stopped outside the Space museum and the old Rail way station which used to be the stop of the Orient Express before jumping on the ferry and got safely to the other side.
