Despite my case of jetlag, we had a great day. We ended up booking a tour for today and tomorrow which is very unlike us. We typically travel through new cities on the cheap - figuring out city transportation and wandering a lot. We want zero stress during this trip and decided that tours would be a good way to see the city without any wrong turns.
Sadly, we were the only people on the tour today so we were chauffered around in a bus. I worried about our carbon footprint all day. On the upside, we had very personal time with the tour guide and got to ask all the questions we could think of.
We toured Hong Kong Island which included visits to the Aberdeen fishing village with a ride on a sampan through the harbour, a jewelry factory, Stanley Market, and Victoria Peak, passing many different areas of the city on the way. I would post some pictures but I'm too exhausted to do any downloading right now. Brian has been crashed since we walked in the hotel room around 7:30 and it's past time for me to follow.

ReplyDeleteIt's cool getting to pseudo travel with you.
ReplyDeleteI love it when tours are not booked and I get the tour guides more intimate view of a place. Can't wait to see pictures.
