City walking tour













March 13th, 2007

After sleeping in till 10am, aC and I strolled the streets along Hennesey Road and weaved our way through 'Causeway Bay' and up towards 'Times Square'. We made a quick pit-stop up this apartment building to check out some 'closed-door' private shopping (thanx Pat for your detailed instructions). Unfortunately, the styles and assortment of stuff didn't interest any of us.

In the evening, we took the ferry from Wan Chai over to Kowloon where we strolled the streets in Tsim Sha Tsui ('TST'). After a quick breeze on the 'Street of Stars', we were staggered by the bright lights, designer labels, endless cell phone shops and shoppping malls. We then lounged in the lobby of the Peninsular Hotel where oddly enough we recognized the rear profile of a female, but too familiar to be one of our friends...."Julia!"...."hullowe". We can't wait to hang out with her & Jeff next week in Siem Reap!

We later met with Michelle whom we haven't seen for over 4 years. She took us to her friend's restaurant, 'Hutong', located on the 28th floor facing all of Hong Kong Island. A great choice with delightful asian-fusion cuisine complemented by superb views of the Kong Kong Island lights and billboards.
