Hong Kong and Thailand

The protestors (People Against Democray) have continued to wreck their havoc in Bangkok. So we are still in Hong Kong.

Back to Island ECC on the weekend, which was good. We met a couple from Buffalo in the US, and I am meeting the husband for lunch tomorrow.

However, the apartment is starting to get a bit small. It is supposed to be around 45 sqm, but I think in reality it is probably less than that. It is a studio, as wide as a queen size bed (!) plus a 2.5 seater couch, plus one foot of extra space. It is as long as the bed plus another six feet. Then on the side we have the bathroom and a corridor kitchen (about 10 feet long and about 4 or 5 feet wide). So for two people it gets a little "close".

We have the apartment for 2 months (mid January) so I think we will probably end up signing up for a longer term in a bigger apartment (not serviced apartment) when this rental finishes. The property market in HK is dropping, both for rentals and purchases, so we should be able to get quite a good deal. We will see...
