Around Cheung Chau

We had a week on the island, and spent a bit of time wandering around seeing it. The weather was a bit iffy, but it was a wonderful place. No cars allowed, so very peaceful, for Hong Kong!

I was on a mission to find a money cat and, as the weather was pleasant (sun shining, humidy about 80% and below 30º) I took my camera and walked to Mong Kok. Mong Kok is chaotic, noisy and vibrant area and according to the Guiness Book of Records, Mong Kok has the highest population density in the world – 130,000 per km² or 340,000 per mi². It’s busy at all times. These photos were taken at about 2pm on a Monday afternoon. At the weekends it’s a bit like Oxford Street (London) just before Christmas. The pavements (sidewalks) are so packed you can hardly get anywhere.

Today it was the most beautiful day (weather-wise) I have ever seen in Hong Kong. There were no clouds in the sky and the wind blew away the polluted air. I took the advantage of the weather and went out to take yet another shot at the Hong Kong city. The Hong Kong skyline is truly magnificent.

This is the sort of weather forecast that us Northern Europeans can only dream of….in fact it was hotter today!

I spent this summer in Europe, and became friends with a sweet girl, we exchanged presents in Italy.
I gave her a hand-embroided bag, and got this fur vest in return.
Next time i want to trip to Asia!
Hong Kong, Korea, Thailand, Taiwan and Singapore…so many places i want to go around!
I’m so looking forward to making new friends there!
