The younger one of course.....
I can't honestly remember if there was beer on the boat?
But you can buy beer at lots of shops, the local 7Eleven across the road from our 4 star Hotel sold all kinds of beer just like soft drinks in our shops...
Drinking isn't as big in China like it is in Western countries, the company that we went over with MJS Floorcoverings completely emptied the local bottle shop & all there storage of red & white wine & I think that was only 25 bottles of each for our dinner one night. They were shocked that someone would need so much wine for 1 night's dinner. We had 90 people on the trip.

Well i'm back!
I arrived in at 6am morning but needed the beauty sleep, i don't know how people can sleep sitting up on planes. All up Sunday 6am aus time untill 10am is a killer. Went to Nathan rd in hong Kong yesterday and all i can say is anything electronic is cheap! Problem was i forgot to notify the bank i was going so you guessed it card suspended. As it turned out the missus went food shopping in Sydney at the same time, i was shopping in Honk Kong. The fraud squad at the bank locked down the Visa card without delay
It's great to see they pay attention but ti kinda stopped the shopping reasonably quick . Managed to get a few things Bluetooth/1g Micro card for the Phone $96 for both. and a few other things as well. One thing i can say is i an so glad to be home
