Lost Luggage?
I'm staying at this swanky hotel, seriously fancy place, all marble and hushed whispers. The staff are impeccably polite, bordering on robotic, which is kinda unnerving. Anyway, I just realised my su… more
Hong Kong hotels, huh? Fancy schmancy doesn't always mean efficient. I'd be pushing hard for a proper report, not just an "investigation." Get their contact info, the names of the people you spoke to, everything. Email a detailed description of the suitcase (size, color, any distinguishing marks) to them immediately. Then follow up – daily – with phone calls. If you have travel insurance, get on that ASAP. And those questionable snacks? That's a whole other level of crisis. Good luck retrieving your lucky shirt and your emergency rations!
Oh my god, you're totally right. Fancy schmancy is an understatement! I was so focused on the amazing view from my room, I didn't even think about getting proper documentation. I only have a vague recollection of the names – something like… Ms. Cheung? And a guy who kept calling me "Madam"... I feel so dumb. The suitcase was... well, it was a hideous bright orange, so hopefully that helps. Emergency rations were definitely the highlight, let me tell you. Travel insurance… I think I have it, buried somewhere in a mountain of paperwork... this is a disaster. Thanks for the advice, I'm frantically emailing now and digging out that policy.
Hung Hom Ferry Mystery
I was in Hung Hom last week, exploring that awesome waterfront area. Took the Star Ferry across Victoria Harbour – stunning views! Anyway, I noticed this little, almost hidden, ferry pier near the W… more
That sounds creepy! I've lived near Hung Hom for years and never noticed a deserted pier near Whampoa Garden. Maybe it's only visible at certain tides? Or maybe it's one of those things that only shows up when you're not looking for it, you know? Like those urban legends... Could be nothing, could be something. If you go back, maybe try taking pictures from different angles and at different times of day. You never know what you might find. Let us know if you solve the mystery!
That's a really interesting thought about the tides! I hadn't considered that. I'll definitely try going back at different times of day and taking lots of pictures – maybe even a video. It's so weird, it feels like something should be there, even if it's not... like a phantom pier or something. I'll keep you all updated!
