Will's Grandpa is a pretty funny guy. I was commenting how tall every thing was in Hong Kong and he then said. Short people tall buildings. What a crack up.
On Wednesday we were able to go on a tour of the island. We went and saw a temple, fishing village, jewelry factory, a beach, and my favorite Standley market. It was just like in the Dominican Republic, with all the shops right on top of each other and you could bargain. The tour guy was a nice guy, but he made every one feel stupid at one point on the trip. He would ask these questions and I thought they were going to be jokes, but it ended up that he was asking to see if we knew the answers. When we didn't know the answer he would just give us a look. My question was what do people in China speak. I was way off. I said Manderin and oh that is not the right answer it is PoTungWah. What ever. He was a nice guy though. He asked us what we wanted to find and showed us exactly where to find it and it was the cheapest place too. He also gave us a bag of the candy that I was looking for. He walked up to us, handed it to me, and walked away before I could say anything. So that was nice of him.
We also got to eat on a boat restaurant thing on Wednesday. That was an experience. One of Edwards friends took us. It is a very touristy place. You can go in the back and see where they get the fish. I was so surprised, he walked right over to the lobster and pulled one out, so the guys could hold it. He also grabbed a shrimp and through it into another fishes tank to see if they would eat it. He had been there many times so he knew what he was doing. We had to take a boat taxi to get to the restaurant. It was a pretty interesting meal. Oh I forgot to mention that Jason sleep through the whole thing. The waiter brought over 2 chairs and he laid on them. It was pretty cute.
Dang no pictures again that would load. Maybe tomorrow.
