买东西，吃东西， 买东西，吃东西， 买东西，吃东西

“休息是必不得已，休息是为了在去买东西吃东西！”



Our first purchases on the territory, were 4 luggage bags; 1 each. The luggage bags had 2 uses; the first is a favour for the logistics gang, the second is for carrying our shopping kills. On one afternoon, we walked from Mongkok to Tsim Sha Tsui with our newly bought luggage bags just to shop. To put things in perspective, it was roughly twice the length of the whole orchard shopping belt. From swanky shopping complexes to the alleys of 男人街 and 女人街, we've done them all. This is a picture of me fiddling with a lighter shaped like a chopper. Picked up a lot of cute lighters along the whole stretch of 男人街 (or was it 女人街??), and that was how I began to collect lighters. Zippos itself wouldn't do, but lighters of odd shapes and sizes.


We also explored a lot of the local foodstuff. Like the dimsum and the 茶室, that were virtually everywhere.
And 庙街's 臭豆腐 is the smelliest of the lot ... you can smell them at the beginning end of the street, thinking it might be a sewage pipe that had burst open and its content stagnant already. Then as you explore the whole street, you keep wondering if it was the 臭豆腐 or really there's a burst sewage pipe 'coz you don't see anyone selling 臭豆腐. Then you reach the other end of the street, voila, the fountain of death is there alright.
