Hong Kong

Hong Kong- January 2017
Hong Kong is famous for its towering skyscrapers as you will see from the photos below. 

Jeff and my version of Hong Kong:
New York on steroids 😊









Inter Continental Hong Kong - our hotel we stayed at before our cruise 🚢

The Peninsula- 6 star hotel


This hotel has their own personal fleet of green Rolls Royce for all their locations. 
Super expensive shops located inside The Peninsula. 

Check out the 3 tier pig necklace 


After a long flight enjoying a cup of tea waiting for our room. 
We hired a local tour guide, Melanie to show us how the locals lived in Hong Kong. 
The famous locals shop served us the local favorites: hot tea and milk drink. Jeff had a combination of coffee and tea mixed together (strong). as you can see from picture the tea is brewed in a special sock to capture the special flavors. The tea was very strong but with the milk it was a delicious combination. 



Local Dessert's

Local street shops - very interesting with many choices




Look at the Duck heads. This is put on a serving plate with the head attached.

Notice the bag of live frogs under the fish. Frogs are for sale to make frog legs to eat.
