Taking too many pictures and struggling to keep up with editing them.
Included tour ""Postcards of Hong Kong" - 2 hours of walking. Saw the legendary highlights of Hong Kong. Sweeping vistas after riding to Victoria Peak on the tram car. An 1,800-foot summit that soars over the city’s skyscrapers. Known as “The Peak” by locals. Breathtaking views of the metropolis, Victoria Harbor, and Kowloon Peninsula. Victoria Peak has some of the highest market values in the world. The bus picked us up at the top.
Explored Aberdeen, a former floating fishing village. Boarded a sampan for a twenty min. ride through the "floating village". Hundreds of people used to live on fishing junks,, but not now. Stopped by a jade factory and saw one man working. Traveled along Hong Kong Island’s south shore, and shopped at the open air Stanley Market.

| Chinese believe they must keep the mountains happy. This dragon hole is a part of feng shui. If the mountains can see the sea there will be good luck in this building. |

| Really nice and BIG pilot boat. |
