First Port of Call - Hong Kong

So, Everything is sorted for leaving the country and Hong Kong is the first destination. We've used the hotel booking facility on Travellerspoint (which is very good) and managed to book into the Newton Hotel in Hong Kong which seemed close to some of the nice areas such as Causeway Bay and Wan Chai. A bit of a bugger to get their on public transport (about an hour by bus from Lantau airport) but it should provide a good base from which to explore the rest of Hong Kong Island and Kowloon. Since we booked it we've had 3 recommendations from people who've been before so we're really looking forward to it.

Really want to catch up with Morse Lee whilst I'm there. Hope it can be arranged.....

Finances are all sorted and we have a pretty generouse budget but we'll see if I can resist all of those gadgets when the exchange rate is £1 = $14.2493 HKD

Very Excited......
