the chopstick challenge

The Chopstick challenge!
All went to plan as far as the flight out here to Hong Kong.
The waiting was kept to a minimum and we took our seats and settled into relatively spacious seats and started to review the available inflight movie entertainment.
The meal options and complimentary red wine was flowing, whilst I got stuck into the film ‘Salt’.
It was after midnight (GMT) before the lights were dimmed and passengers encouraged to take some sleep. Eye pads, pillows and blankets were being thrown in all directions, but could I get comfortable despite the reclined status..? no.. not really that easy, although did feel myself dozing off for some short spells.
The pilot, upon departure, had announced that we would be taking an hour off our flight time due to there being a tail wind. And this is what happened…. landing around 4.30pm (Monday afternoon).
We connected with the free shuttle bus to the hotel. A short 5 minute ride and checked into room 1203.
We looked at the view and watched the sun setting over the nearby hill, where gondola were traversing the landscape.

After a ‘power nap’ we were off to explore an evening in the centre of Hong Kong. A 25min subway ride for 21HKD (>£2)

Then it was time to wander a few streets and soak up the atmosphere, and considering which restaurant was going to benefit from our new crisp Hong Kong Dollars. After 45 mins of walking our stomachs demanded we stopped to eat. We eventually stumbled upon a very pleasant restaurant where we were presented with chopsticks… it was the ultimate challenge which didn’t attract the attention of waiters as I thought it would.
For ate an extremely tasty meal and settled our bill which came to around £40. Money well spent.

Now back at the hotel, we are deciding which tour of the city we will take tomorrow.
