Hong Kong

Stepping out of the aeroplane in Hong Kong,  the balmy air hits you and it was as if we had walked into a huge sauna.

We stopped off here, for a couple of days to break the journey  and  to explore a little of this fascinating place. 




 





We waste no time in going out and the City streets are bustling with people rushing about their business, cars speeding by, people on pushbikes  and the tall skyscrapers that reach up into the sky.

One of the most populated places on Earth and apparently it is recorded in the Guiness book of records for having the most skyscrapers. This was the view from the seventeenth floor of the Hotel where we were staying and  overlooking Victoria harbour which was lovely but unfortunately the weather was wet so made it hard to take photos.

There was a major construction area down below and we were told  they were building a bridge and new road formation


Hong Kong by night -was fun to watch the spectacular light show  which beamed out a dazzling array of colourful lights everywhere.
 Thankfully I am over the jet lag and then day light saving started in the weekend, so still waking up bright and early and getting back into a routine again.

Wishing you a wonderful Wednesday
Thank you for dropping by to see me and I look forward to coming to say hello to you.
hugs
