Well, I have made it to my new hostel which - i am pleased to say - is so much better than the other 'hostel'. You have to go through three locks to get to the room, so that makes me feel WAY safer than i did last night. I woke up this morning - opened my door and found someone actually sleeping in the hallway. WTF. Needless to say i booked it out of there not a moment too soon.
I have spent the day on hong kong island and am still recovering from the jet lag. I went to the city park, and - i have to say - i know i am a Save the Planet kind of girl and i always complain about the number of people ruining the forests, but in hong kong you can't even sit on the grass! it's blocked off. sorry. no grass for you! you can walk on the nice brick paths and sit on the nice wooden benches under the trees. but there is not a whole lot of open space that i have seen.
well, i need to go find a phone card so i can arrange my travel to tibet. Fingers crossed for me that all will work out seamlessly!
