Our first souvenir in Hong Kong was an umbrella from a 7Eleven store. It was raining throughout, but not a deterrent to the shoppers and tourists flocking the streets. 2 days in Hong Kong !!

We caught a City Flyer (A21) – the double-decker bus from the airport to Tsim Sha Tsui.

We were staying at a hotel named Guang Dong Hotel, located very conveniently in the heart of Tsim Sha Tsui on Prat Avenue. From the bus stop, we had to haul our suitcases along a few streets to reach the hotel. We reached the hotel by 12:30 pm and had to wait for the check-in at 2:30 pm. Meanwhile we caught a Chinese lunch from the restaurant at the hotel.

We tried the Congee with Fish & Minced Pork, was good and Rice noodles with Beef Balls in Soup, was bland. They gave a chilli paste to be added with the Rice noodles soup, but still was no help, as the beef balls were totally bland.

Post lunch we checked-in to our rooms, a very basic room and soon were outside exploring the town. First visit – Central !!
