A word of caution: all the times
given are very approximate. Besides, there is walking (the speed of which depends
on the individual) and waiting involved; so watch your time so that you don't
miss your flight. Something to encourage you not to miss your flight: hotel rooms
in Hong Kong are very expensive especially when you don't have advance booking. 2006.11.28 |
