Planning a trip to Hong Kong?

I came across theses ten tips. 

1. Don 't Drink the Water – Buy bottled water.

2. Look Both Ways Before Crossing Any Street – this advice is good for any country…but Hong Kong traffice might be coming from a different direction than you are used to.

3. Buy An Umbrella – see those foreigners walking in the rain without umbrellas…they are American. When it does rain — and it rains hard — if you 're caught without one, you 'll either be drenched or end up buying another umbrella.

4. Go Easy On Your Stomach – Just because the Chinese can eat anything it doesn't mean you can. But don't just eat at McDonald 's and KFC. 

5. Grow Eyes in the Back of Your Head, and on the side and …and..
Be streetwise or you might find your wallet missing.

6. It's Hot Down Here
Heat + humidity = a Heat Index. Stay hydrated, and wear a hat if you 're going to be out a lot.

7. Buy A Book-Map
It 's called a Hong Kong Guidebook, by Universal Publications Ltd. 

8. Get An Octopus Card
The MTR and KCR issue these for travel on trains, but they are usef
ul in other places.

9. Don 't Carry a lot of Cash
I shouldn 't have to tell you this.

10. Beware of Tourist Traps
Avoid places that don't advertise prices. Watch out for bait-and-switch tactics.
