First (rainy) day in Hong Kong

Some of 112 skyscrapers Hong Kong Island

The Peak Tram

The view (through the clouds) from Victoria Peak

Just before we we swallowed my more rain cloud

It is really easy to get around the Central District using the many covered walkways

In case I haven't mentioned it, it is raining, a lot

The harbour at Causeway Bay

The red Hong Kong Taxi's

Hong Kong Park
Has everything you need in a park; Tai chi garden, observation tower, huge avery, lakes, a conservatory. And it is all free.

Tucked right in the middle of the CBD

The wild life in Hong Kong Park (and one imposter frog)

The view across the harbour to Tsim Sha Tsui

And the view past the Hong Kong ferry back to Hong Kong Island

The Star Ferry

$2.50 dollars to cross

In case you don't realise it is raining ther is a big neon sign to tell you

More of the 112 skyscrapers on Hong Kong Island

The Clock Tower. All that is left of the Kowloon-Canton Railway Terminus

I think this banner is there to show you what Hong Kong looks like in the sunshine

Victoria Park

Causeway Bay at night

Hong Kong Island
