City View

These are just a couple of views of the Hong Kong city that were taken the day of arrival... this region was called Kowloon, and was just a short tunnel away from the heart of the city which sits on an island all to itself. On the first day I wandered around with the buds, and we ended up finding some food in a dodgy side-street restaurant which obviously had very limited english capabilities. Ryan ended up ordering duck which was capable of winning a staring contest against him, and the rest of us were content to suck down some authentic noodles after having 3 airplane meals which were lacking to say the least. Anyways... I hope you are able to see at least a bit of the busyness of the streets around there. It gets extremely crowded however in the downtown region during the market times at night. It was a game of 'spot the white person' once getting into those crowds, and standing room only made it very easy to get lost in the 16 block radius.
