Hong Kong

Saturday, Nov. 14 and Sunday, Nov. 15   Wow!  Hong Kong was incredible!  Saturday morning we started off with a walking tour of old and new Hong Kong, and rode the world's longest covered outdoor escalator system that snaked through the back streets of central Hong Kong.  We shopped at several markets and in the evening, we took a night tour.  After yet another Peking Duck dinner, we went to Victoria Harbor to view the "Symphony of Light" show.  We finished the evening with a stroll through the Temple Street Night Market.   Early Sunday morning we took a tram to the top of Victoria Peak for spectular panoramic views, then boarded a sampan boat to see the fishing village of Aberdeen.  Lunch was at a huge floating restaurant with, of course, more Chinese food.  I guarantee you, we're not going to want Chinese food for a long, long time!  We had free time at Stanley Street Market, then visited a jewelry factory.   It was a great two days, but boy are we tired and looking forward to another day at sea!
