A Week in the City

On to Thailand…
I never expected Hong Kong to be so pretty, nor did I expect to see signs in English! Looks amazing, please tell me you didn’t eat that octopus thing… :-X
Hong Kong is only a few years removed from British rule, so English is surprisingly common. Granted, there were times when I just pointed to an item on the menu and hoped for the best. As for the octopus thing, I definitely ate it.
Hi Phil, I’m Baldwin from Hong Kong, just found this page somehow when i surfing on the net, just want to say i love your pictures and hope you really enjoy the trip.
Trip is going amazing. Thanks a lot. I loved Hong Kong and hope to return one day.
