Show me what youve BOUGHT! le_femme01 February 19 2005, 10:11:45 UTC
Oh god now I really miss HK! The taxi drivers are nuts arent they? Always honking at each other haha. And I HATE STANLEY MARKET! Isnt that the one way up on a fucking mountain? It took FOREVER to get there and I didnt find anything to buy, it's all junk but there was a shitload of Americans like from the Navy or something. LOL.

Our hotel was the Miramar on Nathan Road [or is it Nathan Lane?] and I love all the shops around there, it's cheap!

Awesome awesome you made it! OMG those pics brought me back! I've been to that KFC! The busy streets and the narrow markets! The bay is beautiful! And that building is the Lippo building. From where that picture is taken, you were right near this big HUGE mall. Did you go?

OMG I want to go back!!!!!! I'll give you a link to my HK pics and see if you recognize any of them! :)

I can't believe that you and I live in two different places, but we both happened to go to the same street in the same country on the complete other side of the planet! Hahaha

hahah are you sure it was the same kfc?!!

yeah i think that building is the lippo centre.....um, i don't know if i went in there yet, but i do live near it, so i will have to make a mental note to check it out. there are so many stores around my area, i can't keep track of which ones i've been into now!

give me the link to your pics!

I a pretty sure I recognize that one. I think there are only a few, and the others seemed to me to be inside, or near the water... I could be wrong but that corner looks familiar.

So you LIVE there??

Ok here are the pics:

they didn't really say why it's haunted...but this police station was hong kong's first one, so i would assume there were probably alot of terrible deaths in there or whatnot.......hrm, sorry i don't know more.

These are great. What an exotic looking place. The first picture looks very much like a part of Times Square in NYC. If it wasn't for the chinese signage I would have thought it was.

actually, there is a place called times square right near the first pic. i'd just have to walk down further and turn left and walk for another block and there's this huge centre called times square with a huge television screen just like the one in NYC.

Interesting. I thought that the Times Square NYC architecture was influenced by Tokyo.
