Our last stop was Hong Kong! I loved this city. North Island:
Delicious coconut juice on the street:
Clock Tower on the North Island:
Silk statue?
View of South Island:
South Island, near Lan Kwai Fong:
Mid-levels Escalator, taking us up the hill in style (I wish Tufts had had these):
I don't know what this is. Help?
"Bamboo Garden Icy-Crispy Dragon Beard Candy." Doesn't that sound good?
Times Square mall, South Island:
Swanky Peninsula Hotel, North Island. We had wine (and chips) here. It was classy.
South Island, view from the ferry:
South Island at night. The Chinese really like their colored lights:
We wanted to take the tram up to the Peak to get a great night view of the city. When we FINALLY found the Peak Tram, it was deserted and everything at the top was pretty much closed. Most of the signage in HK is great, but this left a little to be desired. We missed the last ferry back to the North Island too, and had to take the subway :-(
Here we are at the top:
Peak Tram!
I only got two days in Hong Kong, and I wish I could have spent more time there. It's really awesome, with a lot of British influence but a uniquely Asian feel. It was a great end to an amazing trip!
