Tuesday 18th

Just a short blog for today.

We arranged to meet up with some of N_M's old friends today. C, his ex-girlfriend, picked us up from our hotel and we went to a totally vegetarian Buddhist restaurant. I trusted her to make my menu choices for me! We were joined by another of his old friends, and had a very relaxing lunch.


We had vegetable fried rice, (much more exciting than the rice at home!), crispy aubergine slices, broccoli in cheese sauce, and vegetable "crabs claws". I didn't try those, but apparently N_M said they did taste quite uncannily fishy!

After lunch, C dropped us back in Tsim Sha Tsui for a wander around while she went back to work. We did more shopping, mainly for Christmas presents, then went back to the hotel for a rest.


Later this evening, we went on the hotel shuttle bus back to the shops and ended the day by Night_Market buying me a beautiful cashmere pashmina from the Night Market! Everywhere is just putting up Christmas lights, and the pandas in the hotel are already feeling festive.


We have an early start tomorrow, as we're joining C on a trip to Macau. We have to be down at the jetfoil at just after 9am, mustn't forget the passports!
