Thursday 5th August 2010

Today it was very hot and so we decided to do some swimming, reading, etc before going out later when it had cooled down.

When we were getting ready to go out, an horrific storm broke out.  This confined us to the lobby of the hotel for quarter of an hour until it eased off.  Even then we managed to get wet through just walking to the star ferry pier in Hung Hom.  We all dried pretty quickly though.

Once in Central, we went up the escalator to Hollywood Road.  We had read that there were some nice antique shops there.  Unfortunately when we arrived they were all closed.  Probably because of the weather!

So we carried on up the escalator to look for a tapas bar.  After 15 mins trudging about in heavy rain, we stopped looking and went for a return trip to Rick's - the lovely Greek restaurant.  We all really enjoyed the meal and atmosphere again and hope that we have time to go back again before we leave.

I can't believe we only have one week and a half left.  I am looking forward to comijng home though and seeing my friends and family. 

Speak soon

PS.  Tennis tomorrow!!!
