By the way, there are a lot of people living in Hong Kong, so there's often a queue at cafes - there aren't enough tables. It's also considered normal to sit at the same table with strangers there. Also, Hong Kong people don't think of themselves as Chinese. The Chinese are foreigners for them. And in general, I was surprised by a lot of things there - double-decker buses and double-decker streetcars.
