Yps had to travel to the Philippines work-related and so visiting Bonsai went along, in the hope for a few days on a nice beach - which Yps had no time for. Bonsai's disappointment knew no boundaries.
Their biggest adventure was a sidecar (motorized tricycle) taxi ride to an Internet shop where Yps was trying to get it back up and running after it moved location from across the street. Yps' work involved everything from re-installs, clean-ups, hardware replacements to setup.
The shop setup was a mess at best, such as the old computers required a reinstall to clean them up and the new ones didn't have any software installed yet. Here Yps and Bonsai are setting up the station management software (to count the money
):
After a vey looong weekend, it all was finally operational and the first clients came in enjoying LAN parties of killing each other in Counter Strike and such alike games. Both monkeys are seen monitoring the situation - Yps looks like a stand-up comedian with the microphone.
After all work was done, a last check at the emails before heading to the pool which was right in front of the flat. Due to a weak WiFi network, the computer was mounted on an iron board stuck between 2 chairs in front of the window - which gave a great view onto the pool which was a torture during the busy working days.
Returning to Hong Kong after 3 weeks, Monkey greeted them at the airport. What a lovely surprise!
