After McDonald's we went to Wing Long to exchange Hong Kong dollars. The exchange rate was pretty good at 5.855 and only $40 service charge. Then we went to the tourism office and picked up some info. I bought a yukata at a street vendor and we were his first customers of the day! We crossed the street to go to the post office and mailed Kiyoe's vest. Shit it costs more than Toronto. Bought some nice postcards that are prepaid and will write them tonight.
After going to the post office, we went up the longest outdoor escalator (which we got sidetracked and didn't finish) and saw a Monopoly like "collect as you pass go" thingy for your octopus card. Yay deal! One lady must have recharged at least six cards.
We made our way along Hollywood Road and went to 文武廟. We took pics, walked around, died of smoke and walked down back to Central and visited more street vendors. Here's where I bought ankle socks for Mui which may not fit her... hmm...
Now Poo's stuff. We went to Bossini to pick up some clothes, pants and went next door to Giordano. Bossini was cheaper! We went to KFC for corn. Can you believe it? Roasted chicken wings too! Their Zinger is a lot better than it is in Toronto. Cheaper too. Dianna's lunch of a larger than Toronto sized Zinger sandwich, criss cross fries, drink and corn was $24! She didn't like the corn or mayo. My turn to try. Okay, okay, I know why... it just tastes like detergent, no big deal... =p It tasted better 13 years ago. Oh well.
