Causeway Bay

It's Darren and Tum's last day in HK. They have to fly back to Bangkok in the arvo, so today we all caught a bus to Stanley market in the morning for lunch and to check out the area. It's located on the south of Hong Kong island so its quite a long drive to get there. Its worth it for the scenery alone tho. It's basically another outdoor market near the beach selling Chinese arts and souvenirs for tourists. The weather is actually really hot so we have to use umbrella to walk around. We had lunch on one of the cafe's beside the beach, which is actually quite pricey for HK standards.


After lunch, Darren and Tum had to go back to city and to the airport, so David and I continued checking out the temples near the area. Once we finished, we caught the bus back to Admiralty area and checked out the Pacific Place mall. It's one of HK's swankiest malls. We like it there because it's got air-con. It sells all the high end brands like LV and Burberry. We hung out there for a while and then we moved on to Causeway bay, which is only 2 train stops away from Admiralty. Causeway Bay is one of HK's major shopping districts with Times square and SOGO. We didn't even get to check out SOGO because it was getting really late and everything was starting to close. Oh well, put that on the list for the next HK trip:)
