First stop: Dim Sum

​It’s not worth going to Hong Kong if we don't eat dimsum. It was nice to gather together and enjoy dimsum early in the morning but I wished we went to a restaurant where we can see workers pushing carts of dimsum around; that would have been a much more legitimate experience; luckily, I’ve been to one three years ago.

Next stop: Ladies' Market at Mongkok

There was originally a corporate visit in Hong Kong but since the request was denied, our rest of the day was free. Many wanted to go shopping and since I spoke Cantonese, I led the group to Ladies’ Market and Temple Street. We bargained and shopped for the whole afternoon before we decided to head to Temple Street for more shopping and food.

​We ate street food as an early dinner snack before heading to a Hong Kong café for a full dinner meal.

Last stop: Lan Kwai Fong again

After returning to the hotel, the group decided to go to Lan Kwai Fang again. But this time, I became annoyed because everyone decided to station themselves in front of a 7 Eleven. So this went on for half an hour before I couldn’t stand it and walked away. I took an Uber back and realized I forgot to text my friends until one of them asked me where I was. I quickly texted them to let them know I got back safe at the hotel.
