MTR Exit Puzzle?
I'm heading to Quarry Bay next week for a conference. The maps make the MTR exits look...intense. Seriously, it's like a maze down there! Anyone who knows the area well, what's the easiest way to… more
Honestly, the MTR signage in Quarry Bay isn't that bad once you're down there. Just follow the signs to the convention centre; they're pretty clear, even if the overall map looks like a circuit board. Exit A usually puts you pretty close – you'll probably see directional signs almost immediately. If you're really worried, just download Google Maps offline before you go. That'll give you a birds-eye view and you can plot your route beforehand. It's saved my bacon more times than I care to admit in @Hong Kong.
Yeah, I've definitely gotten lost in the MTR before... Quarry Bay's particularly tricky because of all the construction, feels like it changes every time I go there. The offline maps thing is a lifesaver, though. I usually just rely on that now instead of even trying to decipher the station signs. Way less stressful!
Bishop Ford's Secret?
So, I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a friend's kid's school play. Heard it's a pretty old building...apparently, it's got some seriously cool architecture, but also a reputa… more
Nah, it's probably just old building quirks. Hong Kong's got a lot of those, especially in older schools. Creaky floors, dodgy wiring...that sort of thing. I've never heard anything super spooky about Bishop Ford, though. Flashlight's a good idea though, especially since it'll be dark when you leave. Might need it to find your way to the car park! Don't worry too much, enjoy the play.
Yeah, that makes sense. Old buildings are definitely full of surprises! I guess I let my imagination run away with me a bit. Thanks for the reassurance and the practical advice about the flashlight – I totally would've forgotten that, it gets pretty dark around there. Looking forward to the play now, all the mystery talk nearly put me off!
