Lyona (our tour guide) arranged for us to visit a Buddhist temple then later Jade Market. The temple was a wierd experience for us, there was loads of little chinese
people walking round burning twigs and small windmills above their heads (so about shoulder height on the BFG) We shared a few jokes and giggles there. For example;
when we were walking through the smoke we realised why chinese peoples eyes are wider... Because they have to squint so much with the burning of insensce.
We also came up with a way of making sure no man was left behind or separated from the wolfpack. We would call "KAW! KAW! Outcasts Assemble" at the top of our voices.
That had now been added to our phrasebook which also included doing the star trek fingers whilst shouting "Nehow!" which is Hello in chinese. On the way to Jade market we stopped at another temple where we did some pretty aimless walking. Not what we wanted when we were hanging out of our arses! The coach tour was brutal, it was boiling hot inside, we were extremely tired, had poorly stomachs, banging headaches and Lyona's constant droning on really wasn't helping our heads in the slightest. Some of us were feeling like our dignity had been
taken away from us aswell but we won't name names. More stories came out from the night before which made me and Jack really regret not going with everyone to the strip bars where
Danny got a couple of lap dances and then hired her as a hooker later on. This was all being charged to Sam's company credit card aswell! I don't think anyone sampled Jade Market which was probaly to Lyona's disappointment as she wouldn't shut up about it all day!
After Jade Market we were taken to the airport to check in and catch our flights to either New Zealand or Australia. It was at this point it started to sink in that the 6 of us were going to split in half for the remainder of our time (Me, Danny and The BFG going to NZ. Sam, Jack and the social butterfly that is Ben going to OZ).
this led to more jokes about the wolfpack and the outcasts, atleast the attention was off my antics the night before. We didn't really do much in the airport, just sat around on our laptops and Ipods chatting on facebook and sharing stories about back home. We saw the Kiwi girls again in the airport aswell which was funny. Me and Jack were let off by the other lads when
they saw how good looking they were, phew.
Jack was coming out with some great shouts aswell! That umpa lumpa southerner doesn't half keep us laughing. I think the best shout was when he believed us that if you press CTRL + ALT whilst turning your laptop, the screen turns with you.
Sam, Jack and Ben walked us to our departure gate where we just sat down and played cards till the queue had pretty much gone. We made a pact there and then that we would
make a serious effort to go to the other country to have some more nights out with eachother again!
Here we are now, on the plane flying over the pacific islands. It has been a great 3 days and 2 nights in Hong Kong and if they rest of my time in this part of the world
is even half as good as those days then im in for one wild ride! the 3 remaining wolves going to NZ made a pact that we would look out for eachother and help get us settled the first couple of weeks. It's not too often you meet 5 other lads that are so alike in their mindset and attitude which made the past few days so enjoyable. It's a shamethat we're not all going to the same place but hey, the show must go on.
