tea at the po lin monastery



more pictures are up.
hong kong is still great. it was hot and muggy today. almost too hot. but i shouldn't complain.
it started off with some more tennis and then to an east indian buffet with probably the best food we have had on this trip so far. the buffet included lamb curry, madras chicken, and likely 10 other dishes. so good. we ate and then had a hard time moving after that.
i found a place that will do straight blade shaves. so that is on the menu for tomorrow. they dont do them in canada anymore, so i have to take advantage of it. wish me luck.

Bring a ketchup packet. When the blade touched neck, you'll know what to do.

i hope you get a rad scar from the straight blade shave. but for that to happen, you might die. so, good luck.

i emailed that english school in yangshuo, told him i was interested..
he said gaive him a weeks notice, so he could find me an apartment.
seems sketchy.
