Deep Sleep

29 June 2010 - One of the distinct memories about Hong Kong that I will take with me on further adventures in life is that everybody in the morning bus to work seems fast asleep. Hong Kong people are like cats: they easily fall asleep, no matter where and no matter when. I read that three teenagers, aged 14 and 15, were found unconscious at 4 am in a fast food restaurant. Staff suspected that the teens were on drugs and called the police after several failed attempts to awake them. The police and ambulance services arrived with flying colors. The teens woke up and explained that they had watched a World Cup football match and were waiting for the first bus home.
