Hong Kong - Definately not bush

Hong Kong by night is great. We rode the tram to Happy Valley.




Båtfolket i Aberdeen: How long kan they keep on living there?














Hong Kong has seven million people on a little area. To fitt everyone inn the place they build up! We lived on the 32nd floor !  It's a handy place to get around because the public services are very well built out. You can buy a octopus card for like I did for 150 KH dollars and travel everywhere. I didn't get to use all the money I put on it and we were there for 3 days travelling everywhere on busses, trains and trams.
No bicycles which was a surprise to me.
Clean City and very hilly. On our guided tour we went up its highest peak in a tram. Also saw the old part of town where the fishermenn live and we saw an old temple.
It felt good to have a stoppover. The temperature was a mild 25 degrees and sunny. They have the same seasons as  us so it was winter to them. In summer it is very varm and humid.
We had some great meals too. The food is good and cheap.

Shopping is tax free. Best to keep in the big departmentstores so that you know that you are buying the "real thing" and not immitation.
