Hong Kong high rises
8 januari 2019, Hong Kong ⋅ ⛅ 17 °C
Wow Hong Kong is huge! We arrived yesterday afternoon and went to Central Kowloon to do some exciting shopping. Never seen streets like this before! Adam has been exploring various chicken street food stalls today while I went to meet a work client for a couple of hours. Very dull but I got picked up and dropped off in a brand new tesla with gull wing doors so totally worth it! We are off to the Victoria Peak this evening by tram to get a view over the city ☺Meer informatie

The last hop
11 januari 2019, Hong Kong ⋅ ⛅ 18 °C
Onto our last stop before home as we fly to Singapore today. We spent our last day in Hong Kong exploring the Tai Hang quarter and Victoria Park. These are much quieter than the city centre and full little streets and local eateries. Following another handy hint from online we found a rooftop of mall to sit and watch the skyline for the evening. The city is full of expensive rooftop bars but we have no outfits deemed appropriate for their dress code so we brought our own snacks and wine to our free rooftop instead. We have loved this city but it does truly never sleep!Meer informatie

Hong Kong Part 1
21 april 2018, Hong Kong ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
I had a great time working together with my English collegues from Shanghai, Bejing, Chiang Mai, Tokyo and Seoul. Met some really awesome people who were great to work and to spend some quality time with. Funnily, one turned out to have studied in Kiel at the same time as I (though we only knew each other from sight) and another one had lived in Hannover and worked in Hildesheim before moving to Shanghai 7 years ago. We'd definately met and have some common aquaintances. The world is such a small place.
Hong Kong has changed a lot since I was here in 2000 but it's definately a great place to discover. Still a mix of old and new, west and east, clean and dodgy. Though we worked most of the time of my stay there I did get the chance to do some sight seeing. We also checked out the party zone of the city. How strange it felt to have a drink in the middle of the street.Meer informatie

Victoria Park and Meg's monkey challenge
30 januari 2019, Hong Kong ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C
As we arrived too early to check-in directly to our hotel room, we dropped off our bags and started to explore the city.

Victoria Park is a great place for kids from toddler to pre-teen to enjoy some fun skill-building and play. On this day, Meg was absolutely determined to get across the monkey bars - even exhausted and jet-lagged. Several tens of tries later and with constant encouragement from Poppy, she finally made it! Of course, there was also the motivational factor of the championette monkey-bar-crosser “watermelon-helmet” girl who looked like she was about 4 that no doubt helped fuel her determination.

Other highlights included the really nice micro-lakes for slow and fast RC boat racing, as well as the mysterious black path of deliberately arranged pointed rocks that you were supposed to walk over without your shoes?! We all did it and let’s just say - not the most highly recommended part of Victoria Park.Meer informatie

Hello Hong Kong
18 maart 2019, Hong Kong ⋅ 🌬 18 °C
Time to say goodbye to Hanoi & Vietnam. Sad to leave Vietnam but ready to leave Hanoi - just too polluted. We had a taxi to the airport for a 10.30am flight with Vietnamese Airlines. The flight time was only 1.5 hours so we were impressed to be served lunch with a drink and coffee in that time. Caught the MTR express to Hong Kong Island and then the metro close enough to walk to the hotel - all so impressively efficient. After checking in our first stop was the bakery we went to every morning last time we were here - so happy it is still here.Meer informatie

The light show
20 maart 2019, Hong Kong ⋅ ⛅ 21 °C
A hazy start to the day so spent some time around Central square visiting the gardens, the cathedral, shopping malls and walked along next to the peers. In the evening we went back to the Avenue of the stars in Kowloon to watch the light show that takes place every evening on the skyscrapers. Lots of people were there to watch and it was a good atmosphere.Meer informatie

Just arrived on Hong Kong Island. Flight wasn't too bad, just long. Got the MTR airport express into town. Quick and efficient, then a shuttle bus to hotel. View from our room on 27th floor isn't too bad, although hazy. Can even see the cruise terminal from up here, so will see Ovation of the Seas when she arrives on Sunday and again on Wednesday. Off out to explore now. Need to find a bar showing UTD v ARS.Meer informatie

Wet...
22 november 2016, Hong Kong ⋅ 🌧 21 °C
Pretty much rained all day today and we both got soaked, but manged to get out and about. Headed down to Stanley at the bottom of Hong Kong Island which looked like it would be a great place on a sunny day. There's a big market there, good for a few trinkets. Out with a mate last night at an English bar in Wan Chai. Getting around is quite easy on public transport.Meer informatie
