Arrived, found my way to the buses (no touts or taxis) and took one over the bridge to the mainland north of Hong Kong island. Known for its cheap hotels, Tsim Sha Tsui was my destination. After rounding the block 3 times looking for a hostel I returned to the Mariners Club down a side street. Nothing to do with the Seattle team, everything to do with those in the shipping industry. Though one dude at breakfast had a sweatshirt from the baseball team, I avoided giving a shout-out.
Only caught a couple glimpses of the city, but the drive in under upward yawning apartment high rises late last night set the mood. Today's itinerary: check out the area's computer market, waterfront promenade before taking the famous star ferry to Hong Kong Island, hike around Victoria Peak, dim sum. Stoked
