Last leg home
Well, not really, I never really "lived" in this new apartment in the mid level section of Hong Kong Island. We used to live down the street from here when I was little.
The airport train takes you into the heart of central, I really can't say "downtown" because the central business areas' are spread out on both HK Island side and Kowloon penninsula side. It's pretty convenient, you can actually check in you luggage in central station, and go directly into the terminal.
After the train, me and mom hopped on a minibus, a quick tag of the octopus card and off we go. (sort of like Dexit from downtown Toronto, except you can use it to pay for transportation as well) Minibuses are really cool, it's almost like taxi, it takes you places where regular buses don't. The red minibuses can roam on any route the driver wants. The green minibus took us directly home for HKD$5, almost right at the doorstep.
