The last 2 weeks, HongKong!!!

Ok, so sorry I've been gone for the last 11 or so days.  Jeny and I went on vacation with 2 of our other friends.  Man was it great lol.  So first we went to HongKong!  Lets just start by saying they have more shopping malls than any other place I've ever seen :p.  The place is HUGE!  It's actual physical size isn't too large, but with massive skyscrapers and a population of reaching almost 8 million you can imagine how crowded it got in the streets.  Here is a book that can tell u a bit more than me lol, nd btw. click the link bc I get some money if you do hahahaha.  So anyways, shopping, shopping, shopping, and food lol.  
Those  Are pretty much the main key focuses that most tourists focus on when going there.  HongKong, used to be known as "Fragrant Harbour"  Is known for being the 3rd safest city in the world and also one of the cleanest cities in the world.  It was a rare to see trash ANYWHERE let alone vandalism or graffiti.  Actually throughout the whole stay there and traveling I only saw one tag of graffiti with shocked me.  Hongkong is also widely known for fashion and food, on just about every corner you can see high quality clothing or accessories, including Gucci, Burberry, and other top competitors, so if your into high fashion and love to shop I definitely suggest you take a trip to Hongkong at least once in your life. Let's Go Map Guide Hong Kong (2nd Ed)  and here is a map so you don't get "too" lost.  Because trust me... if you don't speak Cantonese it's highly likely you will.  Another thing you will notice about there is their British culture and government.  As Hongkong was a British colony for over 100 years they still adopt a lot of the culture, laws, government, and even "wrong side" driving as they have in England.  With places like Victoria Peak and Queen Elizabeth Road it's highly noticeable.  All in all Hongkong was a great trip with lots to see and experience.  Whether you decide to go to Disney Land, Ocean Park, or just shop in their massive 10 story high malls there is something there for everyone.  It's a trip I would definitely take again and I recommend you all try it too!  Thanks nd have fun :D
