Hong Kong Day 1
Its great being back in Hong Kong again. Listening to a load of Cantonese is reviving my speaking ability again - have only been using it when speaking to mum or dad sometimes.
Hong Kong is so atmospheric. I love the neon signs that stick out from the sides of the shops and can gaze at them all day.
I've only been here for just over 24 hours and so much has happened already. Had a great meeting with Bandai Asia at their head offices today and look forward to finally announcing whats going on. Some other events have brought forward the launch of the Chinese version of dannychoo.com too. French will be this month and Chinese in June. Also looks like I'll probably be back in Hong Kong again in July. 2010 is turning out to be a big year. Bigger than I ever imaged @.@
Arrival at our hotel - Island Shangri-La. Gorgeous view and lovely place to stay too. Will to post a separate review of the hotel. Wonder why they gave me two body guards. Have I done something wrong of late? @.@
And our view by night.
Sabers hair got well ruffled during the flight. Poor thing.
This is where I'm working from for the next few days.
Its time to go out n about. First off its getting hold of an Octopus card - just like the Japanese equivalent of Suica or Pasmo - electronic money card which you can pick up for 100 HK dollars and charge up as needed.
Use the Octopus card to get around on the subway.
And use the Octopus card to pay for food too.
Hong Kong is covered in Wi-Fi all over the gaff. Some of it is free. I managed to do some live broadcasting from the iPhone this evening from a free government Wi-Fi connection at the harbor.
Time to get connected. Picked up this SIM card from Seven Eleven for 98 dollars. No data included but comes with free access to PCCW Wi-Fi points.
Once the SIM is in the accidentally jailbroken iPhone, you will see a load of other carriers - but this SIM only works with PCCW. Shame we cant use the 3G. Didn't manage to find any SIMs that came with data.
The first thing we ate - some yummy won ton noodles.
Saw a load of folks buying second hand devices ranging from NDS to iPhone. Are there folks walking out n about who suddenly want to get rid of their gadgets? @.@
Well I guess they may want to if the items are hot...
Did use the taxi a bit but always like to adventure onto the subway.
Use the Octopus card on the buses too.
Stumbled onto some Mirai Suenega cosplay outfit (ecchi ver.)
This lady apparently gives you foot massages or something.
Char siew rice! But tasted rather average ToT.
Who is this lady with the long hair? Is she famous? A cutie she is.
OK. I'm going to drop you here as I need to get on with other things that I owe you - new giveaway, Bandai Asia office report and more.

Even the "octopus" card sounds rather wrong if these other "ecchi" pics are added in :p

Ack, there is a reason for why it's named "Octopus Card":

Builder of Future
wow, didn't know the name has such deep meanings behind it! How thoughtful!
Also note that London's version is called the Oyster Card, and Tokyo's got the Suica / Pasmo. I've gotta say, the Octopus trumps the Suica by a mile! So stupid that you cannot use the card when your balance will be below zero after your current trip!!!!! What the hell is the deposit for?!! Not to mention it stops the flow of traffic at a busy gate during rush hours!
http://lhyeung.net
I doubt "moe" Otaku themed cards would do well at all in HK... Unless you want to shame your family and be called "hentai" wherever you go, lol. That's probably what would happen.

He say you Brade Runnah! Hong Kong was the inspiration for "Ridleyville" the packed-to-the-gills version of Downtown LA in the movie "Blade Runner." Yes, it is my favorite movie, ever. It's interesting to see that the Blade Runner-ization of Hong Kong still leads the transformation of its putative setting, my home town of Los Angeles. November, 2019 is only 9 years away...

Can't help but wonder if you got any trouble when you shot those pics inside the dodgy adult stores and magazine stands, lol.
So you didn't manage to find the China Mobile SIM...? Wonder if I'll be able to get it myself then.

Nice pics Danny! I just came back from HK just a couple months ago. Ecchi stuff is everywhere in HK -- on the streets, on corner newspaper stands, convenience stores, etc. You could be buying a drink somewhere and along the alley walls behind you could be advertising of these "services." It's crazy. LOL

That's what i used on my unlocked Iphone when I was in HK last November.

Nice! Another SIM I can try next time I'm there... Probably easier to get than the China Mobile one by the looks of it.
Assistant Product Manager - Anime
It really is. Actually go to the 3 Shop in HK Airport Depaure area you'll have to back track upstairs to the deapture mall prior to the immigration area. The friendly staff speak english and have plenty of this specific card available. They configed my iphone on the spot it was great. Topping up can be done online or at any store.

This card predates the Suica/Pasmo, and all the other smart cards around the world. Very convenient. You can even arrange to have it topped-up automatically by registering it with your credit card.
From the table menu, I see you've gone to Tsui Wah restaurant if I'm not mistaken. :)

The building with blue top is my secondary school: St. Joseph's College. And I work nearby in Pacific Place One.

I bought some of these when I was in HK about three years ago from a 7-11 store. They didn't even ask for my ID, probably because I'm a foreigner ^__^

I think after NYC, HK is my favorite city in the world. Loving the urban pics, but you should definitely venture out of the city towards the New Territories. Hong Kong is a perfect mix of urban and nature.

The most amazing thing about Hong Kong is how frickin' close that bus gets to the neon sign in the first pic. ^_^
Unfortunately, the 7-11's there DID NOT HAVE SLURPEES. T^T But that could've changed since the SEVEN years I was there last.
Also, I didn't see too many anime stores. But then again, I wasn't really into anime back then; I was too busy trying to find a copy of "FF X-2: International". But I couldn't find any game stores either. (T0T)
