Arrived in Hong Kong

I have made it to the final location on this journey across China. Well, technically I left China because now I am in Hong Kong! We took the train this morning from Guangzhou and as we got close to Hong Kong I felt like I was riding right into Jurassic Park. There are tons of mountains and it is all green with trees everywhere - it is quite the tropical climate, similar to Guangzhou. We got to our hotel (Island Pacific Hotel) and the rooms are significantly smaller than all the other hotels and the beds are very small twin size beds. It is most likely because everything is so expensive here and this hotel feels more like a nice European Hotel. We have just been so spoiled staying at all of the other hotels!

After we got all checked in we went walking around and found a Thai restaurant to eat at. I had some delicious non-spicy pad thai with chicken. It wasn't even that big of a plate but I got so full really fast so I took home a box and am happy to have another meal ready to go. Everything in Hong Kong is a little more expensive so I probably should have done more of my shopping in China, but oh well, it is still cheaper than the US so I will take advantage. We have the rest of the day off to relax and I am going to try and catch up on some work before starting the final stretch tomorrow.
