Hong Kong

I visited Hong Kong in 1981 and there have been a few changes. The skyline has gone crazy and there are new roads, bridges, tunnels and an airport, but overall it feels very familiar.

The main deterioration is with the pollution - the view from Kowloon to the Peak is permanently hazy.

We arrived there on Friday evening, went to trade shows on Saturday and Sunday, and met a bunch of potential suppliers on Monday and celebrated our last night on Monday with dinner at Aqua, 22 floors up and with the best (hazy) view in Kowloon.

Over the weekend we managed to squeeze in a little shopping - handbags, watches and electronics. With more time we would have visited the Peak, Stanley market and nipped over to Macau for some gambling fun. Next time maybe.

A couple of pictures will follow when Flickr comes back online.
