Hong Kong Day 2

Today is the second to last blog of this trip, this trip. Just thought I should let you know so in a few days you won't have a heart attack or anything. To carry on. Today was our fist real "full of energy" day and it started off pretty good with us doing some shopping for half the day. Here are the photos of people, shops and bags everywhere.



Looking down the streets.



All the photos above have to do with the new Avengers: Age of Ultron movie coming out soon, hopefully  I can explain it all. The top photo is the first and last thing we saw when we entered and left the mall, but that was nothing compared to what was inside. Inside was this cool bunker with a spinning fan ontop and all these very, very detailed models of the Hulk fighing the original Iron Man and the next gen. Iron Man. The detail not only in the fights were incredible not only in the actual models but in the rubbish bins, the bricks, the trash bags, newspapers, soda cans. You could tell they (the movie designers) cared and payed a lot of attention to their jobs.
    

The photos above are of the new apple watch that I tried in the Apple Store. This made me happy for the duration of the day as it was a prototype that they wanted my feedback on.

When we (me and dad) arrived back we headed straight the club lounge before going for a swim in the amazing selection of pools i.e. hot, cold(as ice) and normal pools which were hidden away from the main pool but worth the search.







For dinner we went to the famous Jumbo restaurant which I'm sure anyone will tell you, it's floating.  It's in an old fishing village called Aberdeen which isn't such a village anymore as you will see from the backdrop skyscraper apartment buildings and huge boat launches 








The artwork inside was great and the food was also good(we went to double dragons) which made for a happy family. After this was a trip to another market where I got this quadcopter(four roter helicopter which is flat) which is quite small but saw the guy fly it and it looked awesome. As most people do we went to bed to sleep and gain enough energy for our final day tomorrow (sob, sob).
