LOST IN HONG KONG


Arrived in Hong Kong yesterday evening. Found the good spot to hang out but there were no takers.


Hong Kong was hot, steamy and Typhoony.


Took the Star Ferry across to Hong Kong Island.


Seriously humid.


Saw cool buildings and did as much shopping as anyone could handle.


Saw a dinosaur in a shop window...made of coat hangers.


Found good lighting.


Saw some pretty big buildings through the mist.



Back at Peninsula Hotel had their famous High Tea then pulled off a Lost in Translation pose. Then we went to bed. Too much shopping, beer and pork dumplings. 


Flying to Paris tomorrow evening. One more day of shopping, beer and pork dumplings!

The coat hanger dinosaur is pretty amazing. I hope you have a wonderful time! Paris is the opposite of humid right now :)
