Kevin's Birthday 2007 in Lan Kwai Fong





Peggy's gone, which is sad, but we've got Kevin's birthday to look forward to. I went to meet up with them early afternoon to play tennis in the rain with Kevin. Bryan was a bit sick, but still played anyways. Bryan accidentally deleted the pictures from Ocean Park so I brought some software along to help recover the pictures from his camera. I headed home first to shower and get changed and met them in Lan Kwai Fong afterwards. I invited Wendy along to party with us and met up with her first at the station.

Our first stop was a Russian bar in LKF called Balalaika, which is apparently a Russian instrument. This place is interesting because it has an ice bar inside. Basically a big freezer you can hang around in to drink. Everyone usually just take pictures.

I bought a deck of cards on my way over and we brought out the game "Kings". This is a fairly fun drinking game, even for me a non-drinker. Since the rules can be very complicated we kept them fairly simple at first. Any more complicated and we would've ended up spending a lot on drinks. Rocky and Calvin made sure that everyone was ganging up on Kevin, the birthday boy, and his cousins were frantically trying to save him.

We stayed there until it was last call in the restaurant and then headed over to another bar. Kevin was pretty wasted, it was pretty funny. I'll always remember him saying "I'm only 30% drunk" and "When I'm drunk I like to start fights, not with those white guys, they're too big". Benny "accidentally" spilled a drink to buy time for Kevin between drinks, getting my cards all wet.

Bryan updated me afterwards about the ride home. Apparently they were pretty lucky they grabbed some bags to bring with them on the taxi ride home. He was throwing up in the car. Afterwards they had to carry him, he's a fairly big fellow, into their apartment where he managed to fall on Benny, making him go down hard on his knees.

Happy birthday Kev! Good memories of Hong Kong.
