We full October ma qui fa ancora tanto caldo . Perché non passare una giornata al mare? Ci dirigiamo a Shek O , una spiaggia nel sud dell'isola di Hong Kong famosa per lo stupendo paesaggio e le onde violente e divertenti ma non esagerate.
L'accesso al litorale qui è garantito come dovrebbe essere in Italia, con la differenza che qui la regola funziona e nessuno può dirvi nulla se andate in una qualsiasi spiaggia.
Noleggiamo un ombrellone (meno di 4€ per tutta la giornata) e una simpatica signora ce lo pianta nel posto della spiaggia che vogliamo noi.
they explore the incredible adventures of the people you trying to crush resistance to the waves. Later I'll try too: I love the raging waters. Sindi first to let me throw in turbulent waters, it asks me to enter into a 'life insurance with her as beneficiary.
In lontananza, in alcune foto, si possono notare alcuni sommozzatori . Più tardi apprenderò infatti che durante la notte un ragazzino si era gettato nelle acque senza servizio di salvataggio ed era morto travolto dalle onde . Al momento in cui scatto le foto e faccio il bagno, non so ancora di questa tragedia e non noto i sommozzatori che cercano il cadavere, che verrà ritrovato poche ore dopo. Sinceramente non credo che molti altri sapessero dell'incidente. Io stesso non credo che sarei stato così spensierato, anche se in effetti i miei amici lo sapevano benissimo e non hanno made a turn ...
Naturalmente, round is a hive of restaurants or seafood skewers various (non-congestion that day at the beach is it?) and then we throw in eat everything, even having the hunger caused by hours spent in water to combat the devastating waves of monstrous strength.
While we are, here is a video made by me before you jump into the water . You'll notice the violence of the waves , and as some swimmers are literally overwhelmed even if they try to resist.
the evening, I decide to call Ada to greet her (is about to leave for Australia). See you all ' Aqua Spirit, an incredible local in Tsim Sha Tsui. In essence, those wags of Hong Kong have gained a place in the top two floors of the skyscraper place right on the tip of the peninsula (it's called "One Peking," and is the skyscraper with the most privileged view of the entire Hong Kong) . The two separate plans have been combined, mezzanine below is in the restaurant, in the above cocktail pub. But all the walls are immense glass overlooking the breathtaking view of Hong Kong Island and Kowloon, to 360 degrees. Carpets, stairs, sofas, mattresses, soft lighting and lounge music, they think prices are absurd, but it is not: cocktails at 7 €, consumption mandatory minimum of 10 €. And I who had prepared a hundred euros for the local super expensive ...
I Preparing the penultimate evening in Hong Kong ... First of all we visit, just below the Aqua Spirit, the Hermitage , a shopping center a little 'American-but with half a roof garden tower decidedly Japanese flavor, straight out of a Miyazaki film.

Please accept this too video that I shot to give an idea closer to what is the Hermitage, a haven of calm in the terrible noise of Tsim Sha Tsui, a place where it is primarily to be taking pictures after graduation or a wedding, or for publicity photos with the crew (now that I think a lot 'of images of various fashion magazines have their own background as this place).
I take my ex, who has worked for Cartier, to finally go out to eat at a barbecue.
Hong Kong is full of open spaces of the sea, used in barbecue equipped. They are essentially tables and chairs next to which there is a grid with the need to cook. The stuff there is the door to the house or buy it on the spot, of course provided with raw food size perfette per la griglia. Si prenota, o si arriva e si aspetta. Come potrete immaginare, costa pochissimo.
... then, more and more sad, but elated, we throw into the fray of Temple Street to eat the latest delicacies: clams of incredible magnitude, scallops, jellyfish and fries (delicious!)
Finally, now drunk with alcohol and food, we go to karaoke .
The karaoke in Asia is that there is to us, from us is a guy who comes into a room and breaks his balls all customers to force them to sing. If anything, this is called "pub karaoke" and is definitely out .
In Asia a local karaoke is done on purpose, full of rooms that are booked . Rooms can be ransacked , stained long as you want, you can bring in any food (even from home, but generally there is a great buffet) or order it from your phone Internal (in two minutes a waiter comes to take your order).
Inside this room, there are microphones, TV system and of course, with a large table and comfortable sofas. You pay at the exit (making a total of hours spent and the food / drink order). If you have four or five in Hong Kong do not spend more than 5 Euro per person (in Japan is much more expensive in fact).
I decide to make the idiot and singing in the style of Italian abroad "with moves to Al Bano or Gigi D'Alessio, in short, the worst of the worst. Perhaps I had taken the Ciucca sad?
a taxi, check in, an embrace with Sindi, so many tears, the train to the gate, and 11 hours to think and rethink the part of myself, of my memories, my happiness that I left in Hong Kong and have not managed to bring in Italy.
