Big Buddha




Aaron meets us at 9.30 and what does he have on his neck?!?! Oh yes, you guessed it – a fecking love bite! What a dirty boy!! Him and Sutty went onto a ‘special’ bar after karaoke and were surrounded by ladies of the night – and if you buy them a drink, they’re all over you! Aaron refrained from paying them for a whole night of loving but got a love bite instead for his chat! He even offered the girl his hat for a BJ – WTF!?!? She declined obviously!!!
After discussing the night’s scandal, we grab brekkie at a bakery – time for a cheese n ham roll of the sweetest variety – yep, interesting crossing of flavours there – and we head to the ferry to go to Lantau island and see the Big Buddha at Ngong Ping Village. It’s a toasty day and Sutty gets burnt! We have an awesome lunch at the place we visited last year and went up the steps to the Buddha. Some crazy lass was on her knees praying at the top and crying her eyes out, screaming to Buddha. Wonder what her beef was……mean I know, but she was LOUD!! In front of all those tourists too….its a long day and we head back to the ferry.
Everyone is freshened up and we head up town on Nathan Road to find Sutty’s hotel. We eat in one of these local joints where you can see the hanging glazed ducks, geese and chickens still avec heads, and order the set meal for 4. Well, didn’t we get looks from all the locals?! Haha – we showed them a thing or two by using chopsticks and not failing with them!!! Soup was interesting to say the least…..i’m sure it had bone marrow at the bottom of the bowl…it was a nice dishwater colour too – but strangely tasty!! Next up was an assortment of crab, prawns, pork and ribs. All yummy!!! Huge bottles of Carlsberg for £1.50 – great success 
After our mammoth feed, we head off to find a pub…..do you realise how hard that task was!?!??!?! Huh huh!?!?!? OMG……..there were like NO pubs to be seen at that end of Nathan Road and if we did find one – it was a TITTY bar – raaaaaaa. Bless this woman that stopped us outside a ‘karaoke bar’ – Aaron went in to check if it was suitable for me – he came out and said ‘why aye! Its karaoke’ at the same time, this local woman said ‘the women, they sing with you and then…..(she raises her eyebrows) not suitable for girls’ – haha, I’m saved!!! Onwards we continue to look for a pub, but now I’m absolutely bursting for a pee….not good chat…..Maccie D’s comes to my aide and I use their facilities – thank you golden arches! What we did find on our travels was a few amusing names of buildings – just look at the photo!!
Where do we end up?! The bloody pub opposite the hostel – haha! Delaney’s – another irish bar – but hey, the footie is on and Bolton are holding Man U scum to a draw – come on!!! Argh, but the last fecking minute Man U go and score – don’t they – fecking typical!!! HAYLEY RAGE!!! Off we trot to bed around 1ish – sooooooo many dodgy geezers around our block – ugh!! A tad too many Nigerians here on business – aye right!!!
