Saved again, thanks for the info.

I'm usually TAD (Traveling Around Drunk) about the time I decide to go to Sticky's anyway, now I can fall right into it. ;-)

Yep:

Mandarin: Gong Xi Fa Cai (gong she fa chai) is how to say it.

Cantonese: Gong Hei Fat Choi (gong hey fat choy) is how to say it.

Hey Lineslug and Twin Wasp, I think those mean " happiness and health (prosperity)" (or something to that effect). I was wishing "Happy New Year".
Cheers, whatever it is!

We made it! Even had enough energy to visit Ladies Market. Have to be at lobby of hotel to get Internet for my kindle. Mr vagabond is out on the street smoking his pipe. Had to drag him away from a massage parlor earlier.

Been in touch with one of you to meet up. Call us at the hotel.

Fbh - my luck you are not here. Next time. Where is my red envelope with money inside? Heehee

We never made it to any Irish pub (or anywhere else for that matter) to watch the Super Bowl. It started at 0730 local time and I couldn't get Mr. vagabond to get his sorry ass out of bed and somehow travel from Mongkok to TST. Glad to hear about the Ravens though.

Walrus - we are staying at this largish hotel on Waterloo Rd.

ryguy - we are leaving on the 13th. If we are organized, we can meet somewhere for dinner? Will your wife be with you?

So to everyone out there, we will be at the Star Ferry entrance at noon on February 10.

Man, I'm hungry again. Heading out soon.
