Hong Kong what can i say- it's been "Wet"
We went to see the big budda yeasterday and it poured so we didn't hang around too long before we thought of out stomachs (you know james) so we headed of for a place called the 'tea gardens' which was recommended in the guide books, We walked about 5 minutes in the rain along a track through some trees expecting to find a traditonal garden, but to our surprise it was just a run down leanto, i loved it!! there were huge dogs just laying there out of the rain a massive snail just next to my chair and we sat on old plastic garden furniture! We ordered our food and the woman had to run through the rain to an actual building, it's sole function - kitchen. Then when it was ready her and another woman walked back (-one carrying an umbrella) with our food. The food was the best i've had here and the setting of a junk yard made the whole experience for me.
We then paddled back along the path barefooted (the water had risen that much) to the cable car!!
