Hong Kong Outbound

Arrived in Hong Kong after a smooth trip out from the UK. Very impressed by the Airport Express, thought they could do with more ticket agents at the airport, before being decanted into the chaos of Hong Kong traffic. It seems that nothing changes there anyway.

Once at the hotel contacted friends and arranged to meet the following day.

After meeting outside the Peninsular Hotel, a walk along the waterfront to the Star Ferry terminal and across to Hong Kong Island on a lovely day to take the tram up to the Peak, with splendid views across the harbour.

From there the MTR  and bus out to Shek O on the south-west of the island before returning to Kowloon as the sun was setting. A very pleasant day.

Next stop Perth!
