Hong Kong

"Moose", greeted us in Hong Kong.Brain and Robyn's beautiful cats didn't seem to mind the intrusion of the traveling strangers.
Ralph, Jan, Christian, Brian and Robyn dining as we overlooked Hong Kong. "Thanks for the picture, Christian."
Arriving in Hong Kong was an exciting weekend as we stayed with a very special couple, Brian and Robyn and saw many wonderful sights.
Hong Kong is an island surrounded by many other islands. We took a ferry from Discovery Bay and Central H.K.
Brian, Robyn and Christian took us to The Peak in a tram and the lights of H.K. were a sight to behold.
Discovery Bay is about 25 minutes from the airport and a beautiful area that no one is allowed to drive a car in! A few people own golf carts to get around but most people commute by bus and ferry. We walked down the beach while many were out buying Christmas gifts and putting up lights for the holiday season.
A view from Brian and Robyn's condo, which was our haven for a few days. It was so nice to connect with people we knew and all shared the experiences of travel.
