Today we decided we would just explore and get to know the city a little, it is an amazing place, but SO many people! Everyone just feels so jam packed in. We are staying at the Metropark Hotel Causeway Bay. We walked up to Times Square and explored for a while, browsed through some shops and spent the rest of the day looking around.
In the evening we met up with a friend of Andy's, He took us to a market for dinner and on a long walk around HK in the evening, caught a ferry across to the island and went for a beer. Ended up being a long day.
Enjoy the pics.

Day 8- Last day in Thailand
Our last day here, I will miss Thailand! Such an amazing place and the people are so friendly.
We spent alot of the arvo in the pool & at the pool bar. We made friends with some newlyweds from Sydney and decided we would all go to a ping pong show together.
We had our last dinner at a place we had a soft spot 'Nicky's Handle Bar' then met up with the couple for the ping pong show. I had heard alot about them in the past so knew sort of what to expect, with free entry they charge about 900 Baht for a beer. The show is pretty wild, razors, darts and lots of other shocking stuff!
Andy was dragged on stage and had to hold a balloon in his mouth while a dart was fired out of you know what and popped the balloon.
I was also dragged on stage but I don't know how much I'm willing to share! It did involve eat bits of apple from certain areas of naked women in front of everyone...
Obviously not to many photos today as the were not allowed in the show, but here are a few I did take!

Day 7- Christmas Day
We weren't really sure what to for Chrissie Day, we slept in, ate a buffet brekkie, went swimming for a few hours and had a few early beers. It really is hard not to in weather like this!
Eventually we decided to go zorbing, now I have never done this and had no idea what to expect! I thought, being a big guy, I wouldn't be able to.
It was amazing! We had the best time, it was about $50 AUD for unlimited runs, I could not stop laughing on every run, Andy kept kicking me in the head or i would crush him but it was hilarious. I took my gopro in the zorb on multiple runs so I have some pretty hilarious videos as well, I may share some. We made friends with an American family as well and we took it in turns laying down in front of the zorb so they could roll over us as well. Great way to spend an afternoon!
Alot of the photos from the day arent the best so I think will put a video up!
We went back to No.6 for dinner that night but was full and found out they had another up in the hills, they gave us a ride up there. The view over Patong was amazing, the food was delightful! Such good prices too.
Afterwards we went down Bangla Road had a wander and a few beers.
EDIT: Please ignore my STUPID laugh and gut in the video!
