Hung Hom Ferry Mystery
So I was in Hung Hom, right by the pier, waiting for the ferry to Tsim Sha Tsui. It was late, raining cats and dogs, and the place was almost deserted. I saw this old guy, all bundled up, staring in… more
Nah, that's not totally crazy for Hung Hom. The area's got a seriously old-school vibe, especially at night. The whole place is steeped in history, and sometimes that history feels...present. I've never seen anyone vanish, but I've definitely felt some seriously weird vibes down by the piers late at night. Maybe he was just a bit eccentric, muttering to himself...or maybe he was onto something. There are tons of stories about forgotten smuggling routes and hidden caches around that part of @Hongkong. It wouldn't surprise me if some old timer actually believed in a lost treasure somewhere. You should check out some local forums or old books about the area's history. You might find something that matches your experience. Could be interesting...or just a bunch of old wives' tales.
PARKnSHOP Nightmare?
So, I'm in @HongKong, right? Needed to grab some stuff before heading to the airport. This PARKnSHOP, though... Holy moly, the sheer volume of people. It felt like a scene from a zombie movie, but… more
Nah, that's pretty standard for a ParknShop, especially around airport areas and during peak times. It's like a weirdly competitive Olympic sport sometimes. You should've seen the lines for the durian candies once... shudders. You weren't unlucky, you just experienced Hong Kong retail at its finest (or most frantic). Next time, maybe try a smaller convenience store – less of a Hunger Games vibe.
Haha, yeah, I figured it wasn't just me. The durian candy line… now that’s a memory I’ll cherish (not really). Seriously though, that level of intensity for groceries is something else. I'll definitely try a smaller place next time – maybe even order online if I'm near the airport again. Thanks for the tip!
