Hong Kong
In the very center of the fancy, fresh brand new Hong Kong lies quite a dirty, but very inspiring market. When people talk about Hong Kong being like the sets of Blade Runner, they probably speak of this area. Giant shiny evil looking skyscrapers interspersed with colorful stinky market stands (oh can they stink sometimes!) selling - for us - weird foods and goods. In the very center of that market you can find a cave. Ok, it's not really a cave, but a really old shop. It had - if I remember right - dirt floors (maybe just that dirty) and hardly any lighting. The shop was selling only two kinds of soy sauce and a vinegar that were produced in the dark depths of that very store. I wonder what was going on in the back - all we saw was shadows and glimpses of people. Every now and then we heard shouts. I'm pretty sure this was just another CIA safe house. A front! Yeah, it's all a front! So this must be the secret soy sauce that secret CIA-agents have on their secret dumplings. As we left the store we saw a secret CIA cat strutting out the door and following us for a block or so. We shook it off pretty easy though!
