First stop the ferry to the mainland which luckily is just down from our hotel. Next taxi to the Wan Chai Computer Centre where Noel checked out prices. I should have brought my iPad with me as it crashed the day we got to Hong Kong. If it had waited one more day!!!!!!!!!!! it has my blog on which hasn't been published yet. Not sure if I will be able to recover it or not but if I get a chance I may go back as these guys do data recovery.
Next stop MTR to get to the Man Mo Temple. Got the train no problem and followed the signs to get to the Mid Levels Escalator. Thank goodness for that as I wouldn't want to walk up these steps in this heat and humidity.
Got to the half way point then followed the signs to the temple. Hong Kong's Man Mo Temple is among the oldest and most well-known temples in the territory. It was built in 1848, during the early years of British rule in Hong Kong. Though it's been rebuilt a number of times, much of the original structure still remains. During the 1900s, it is said that locals came here to solve disputes that could not be solved by British law.
We then started the adventure getting back to the hotel this time taking the train all the way to the ferry. All good and back to the hotel via the ferry for a shower and/or swim.
We headed out for dinner and shopping at the Temple Street Night Market. We found a Vietnamese Restaurant near the market for dinner where Donna and I both had Cambodian Noodles which were very nice. We hit the market after and Noel was like a moth to a flame checking out all the stalls and shops. He didn't but anything but he certainly window shopped. Bought a couple of little items as the suitcase is full then headed back to the hotel.
