Hong Kong Harbor at Night

After a day at the park, we stopped at the Hong Kong harbor once again, but this time it was dark. We walked along the Avenue of Stars and then watched the Symphony of Lights. A pleasant way to end our day.

Jackie!

Kowloon Markets (pt2)

Our favorite shopping in Hong Kong was not in the ultra-ritzy malls but the ordinary street markets, many of which were in Kowloon. They were crowded but offered a little bit of everything. Bartering was a must; typically we paid less than half of what was asked for, sometimes as little as 1/6. Here's a couple shots of the street.

Hong Kong Harbor

First day in Hong Kong we took the MTR to the southern tip of Kowloon, then walked down to the harbor and took the ferry across to Hong Kong Island.
