Girls Night

Apparently when in HK you need money to go out and when I say money, I mean SERIOUS money! It's crazy - alcohol has a higher tax than anything else. Also,when in HK it is mandatory to go and do some things out on the town.

Dancing at my apartment to kick off the night

Being old - we are now sensible - we kill the dancing to line our stomachs!
Last week, after a very long and crazy week at work, it was time to hit the town for a girls' night to treat ourselves. Of course being the poor, newly moved here, broke teachers that we are, we started at my house with bubbles and dancing to old school R'n'B and then headed to the legendary, although not so amazingly talent filled, Lang Kwai Fong.

Tequilla!!!

After a mandatory Tequila shot, it was off to 'Al's Diner' to suss out the 'one must do while in HK' Jello shots! Totally, totally strong and not to be taken lightly - there was even a trick to it!

Orange flavoured Jello Shot!

What it actually tastes like -STRONG!!!!

Next off to Stormies - stand on the street bar - to meet up with some more girlie's and then off to the Cavern for stage dancing and a live band - free entry by a friend who knew the doorman saved us $100 and then from then on, good old Wan Chai till dawn

Paying for it Sunday and Monday truly showed my age and the fact that even thou it was a great night - remembering and not paying for having fun the next day is soooooo much better!

I blame this girl (Bonnie) for my ginger indiscretion!

Lesson learned and this weekend it was still girls night but Friday was a Tango show and then Saturday a Salsa class - that unfortunately was at a different venue!
