Hotel room (part 3)


Every morning we would get the newspaper delivered in this cloth bag hanging on our door. Now that's plush.

We couldn't resist getting McDonald's one morning. It seems in Hong Kong they like to put almost everything in bags, even the drinks.

Here are the drinks in their respective bags. One is orange juice and one is coffee. Another point is the portions are smaller. I don't know if you can see the orange juice cup is only 6 oz. compared to our 12 oz.

If you ever go to Hong Kong remember to bring A LOT of tissues. Most of the restaurants do not provide napkins (only the very expensive ones), and if you go in the more rural areas they don't even have toilet tissue. We bought tissues there (and this seems to be the only brand available - it's 4 ply) and used at least 3 packets every day.


This statue was in the lobby of the hotel. We thought it was interesting since it looks like a traditional "People's Citizen" but with a cell phone. I wonder if this is supposed to represent "progress"?
