Arrival in Hong Kong

So here we are at the Eaton Hotel in Kowloon. We had booked a standard room via the Internet, but negotiated an upgrade on arrival at a discounted rate so that we got a better room and use of the business lounge. I’m calling it a belated birthday present to myself. After being sick for 2 weeks over Christmas and New Year, I felt I needed a pampering.

On our first evening, after freshening up, the first thing we did was to take all our guide books down to the business lounge to consult as we drank champagne and helped ourselves to hors d’oeuvre. 2 days really isn’t enough to see Hong Kong, but I made a list of our priorities. Predictably, most of the things on David’s list involved food.
