Hong Kong Day Two

We slept rather fitfully last night, in spite of taking some Melatonin for relaxation. We both woke up about 4:00 AM, after getting to sleep about midnight. We lounged in bet until about 7:00, and then got on the road about 8:30.

We stated off by taking the Ferry (HK$2.20 each) to the Hong Kong side of the island (we are staying in Kowloon). Once there, we walked and walk for several hours. (Check out some of the photos by clicking on My Picassa Albums to the right). We saw some interesting antiques, and some interesting fake antiques.

We ate lunch at a Dim Sum place called Victoria Seafood. It was good (Hairy Crab Coral Dumplings – both steamed and fried) but not great. We took the ferry back to the hotel.

Doreen is having a spa treatment. I am reading.

Fancy dinner tonight

  1. What is it like having Chinese food in China versus having it in the U.S.? I've never been out of the states but I hear the Chinese food here tends to be greasier than the food in China.

  2. While I have not found Chinese food in the US to be greasy, it is quite different. Grab Joel and a slow plane to China and find out!

  3. Keeping up with your travels ... sounds like a blast so far. And you were worried! Have fun and travel safe.

    And what's up with the salt blocks?
