Yo, stopped in an Internet cafe to check on the forum, lol, no obsession present.

Been great here, I've only been to one guitar shop in Hong Kong (Sha Tin district/area) and they're got Mesas, ESP, Ibanez, Fender, etc. pretty cool.

But apart from guitars obviously there is SO much to see. I've been to:

The Tower Peaks (where you can see ALL of HK (got pics))
Avenue of Stars
And other places such as Tai Po Market, Kowloon Tong, Mong Kok with SO MANY shopping centres. I also visited my relatives in Wu Kau Tang. I've got half a million pics so you'll all know what the places and what not look like, which are all places you have to see if you ever want to go. Also Central HK is amazing with all the buildings (and the Tower Peaks)

Anyways, gotta roll! Will probably update again when I'm in Japan (tomorrow!)

Sayonara!

Hey guys, back from my holiday. Really enjoyed it, but not the way I had expected it. I'll get round to posting a REALLY long post once I settle down.
