meeting Aaron
With Aaron at Hong Kong’s subway.
I stopped off in Hong Kong again for a few days in February. As well as seeing Cynthia again, I caught up with my cousin Aaron who was visiting some friends before touring around Vietnam. He had arrived in Hong Kong the day before me, and left about the same time as me. More perfect timing.
Aaron knew Hong Kong a little better than me, so he took me north of Kowloon to see the fish/pet market area. This was basically a long street with pet shops running along either side. And there were some pretty strange pets on sale:
How exactly do you keep a sea turtle as a pet??
We also had dinner in the pet neigbourhood. We stopped in at a restaurant that didn’t have a word of English in sight. But we were undaunted as I have studied Chinese for one year at university and lived in China for a year, and Aaron has studied Chinese for two years at University. So, combining our masterful knowledge of the Chinese language, we were able to order fried rice and fried noodles….
i love your blog, great !
