Image
Was in Hong Kong from 24th till 28th July 2007. Watched Barclays Asia Trophy Hong Kong 2007 and shopping... It's a summer sales everywhere!!! Shopping in Hong Kong was great! Everywhere peoples shopping.. This is what they called shopping till you drop.. Lucky we didn't. Plenty of shopping places, Harbour City, Timesquare, World Trade Centre, Sogo, to name a few.. Portsmouth won in the final against Liverpool with penalty 4-2.. Third & forth place goes to Fulham and South China FC accordingly. First time see Tores played with Liverpool, not good at all..

I just love Bali, the Balinese, the food, the beaches, the air and everything, especially I'm with someone I love the most and always by my side - to have and to hold from this day forward, for better for worse, for richer for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, until we are parted by death . Kuta Beach Ramayana Resort I stayed in Ramayana Resort, located near the Kuta Art Centre. I booked thru http://www.hotelclub.com/ , pretty good rate, I believe.
