A foot massage is heaven. We advise anyone going to Hong Kong to get one. Or why wait: go to your nearest Chinese health centre today! We had saved this for our last few hours, and wished we had one every day.
On the advice of the Lonely Planet guide, we went to the Happy Foot parlour in Wellington Street. That was a good tip. (Though we would love to know who to choose a good parlour in Hong Kong; how could we tell which were the good ones near our hotel, for instance?)
This is a rare picture; a nearly empty tube. Hong Kong seemed to be gearing up for the frenzy of New Years Eve. Pip took this picture pulling out of the first stop on Kwun Tong line, on our way to our final tourist visit. You can see that the trains are all interconnected and very long indeed. So, despite the crowds, you do not feel squashed into intimacy as you so often do in London or Paris.
