Kowloon

Kowloon was an adventure... In the rain. The three of us struggled to get up this morning, but Imogen had been awake since six and had been furiously whatsapping us. She still hasn't got over her jet lag, I never seemed to get under it lucky for me! After a nice brunch we got the famous Star Ferry over to the mainland, Kowloon. Unfortunately when trying to look at the view across the harbour, there was nothing to see but mist and the rain was slapping us in the face. I don't feel we got the true ferry experience but fun all the same. After arriving we relied on Imogen, our resident tour guide to show us the things to do in Kowloon. Little did we know she was almost more clueless than us. But luckily enough our plan for that day had been to wander aimlessly in torrential rain. Not. It was indeed an adventure, we hopped in and out of a few outlet stores purchasing bits and bobs here and there. With the extreme air conditioning in these malls I thought the raindrops on us could potentially have frozen. A visit to the Nike outlet store was a must for a few, though it was rather a trek. Myself and Imogen were up ahead leading the way, not such a good idea with both of our poor sense of directions but we got there after a stop for tea and cake in a lovely McCafe.
We rounded the day off with a trip to the Ladies Market which we found by accident. Typical. Imogen spent her budget for the next two days in one shopping trip, when she realised this we swiftly got the metro home.

Despite being soaked to the skin and feeling as if we were in England we had a lot of fun together.

Lots of hugs,
Three drenched ladies
