When I got the new blue shirt, I got a bonus – a nice plastic shopping bag with handles.
Which was worth every penny of the $22.25, even without the shirt, if for no other reason than the sense of security it provided. It has turned out to be unnecessary, though.
Eventually we got back to SoHo, which is a part of HK that’s kind of interesting (although I have no idea where it’s at in relation to anything else) and the “World’s Longest Escalator”).
Except it’s not. It’s a series of escalators and moving sidewalks that are useful in moving people and take you up (or down) some very steep parts of the city, depending on the time of day. It seems the run down in the morning, to facilitate people going to work and up in the afternoon to reverse the process.
Otherwise, the top of the hill would get very crowded.
Lots of shopping places. Many of them available in NYC and other places. Nice restaurants, though.
If you wanna read more about the Escalator -- you can do it at the link below. Interestingly it cost $30 million to build in 1993.
