going to Hong Kong

I took a flight from Shanghai to Hong Kong today and indulged in taking the German engineered MagLev train (Transrapid) to Pudong airport. We did 430 km/h!
Hong Kong seems a cool place, but I have to get used to Western prices again. China was so dirt cheap, it's really hard to pay ten times as much for most things again...
I only have 3 full days here in Hong Kong before I will fly back to London on Thursday. This will mark the end of my awesome, mind-boggling 6 month trip around the world, which makes me kind of sad. But this also means that sooner or later I will do it again... ;)

This evening in Hong Kong I walked around a bit and took the escalator up to SoHo. I met 2 Polish guys there and we had dinner together. We then took a bus up to Victoria peek, but the fog was so thick you couldn't see anything.
