| Hong Kong Park

|
| An artificial lake in Hong Kong Park.
| Basically the same picture taken with a different exposure so you can see
the skyscrapers overhead.
| The oldest building in Hong Kong, now home to the Museum of Tea Ware.
| Many office workers eating their lunch outside. Feeling inspired, I went
to Pret A Manger and bought a Malay curry chicken wrap (chicken, pumpkin,
red chilies) and a yogurt (with strawberries and granola) and sat outside
here and ate.

| A waterfall. The sharp eyed will notice a wedding party posing for
photos. I actually saw a few such groups in the park. I later noticed a
wedding registration office in the park.
| Turtles and fish.
| Yours truly. (I make sure to take one picture of myself using my camera's
timer on every trip.)
| Another road in the park.

|
| Imagine how awesome this shot would be if I had taken it with a wide angle
lens.

 |
| Hong Kong Park's Aviary

| One view in the aviary.
| Another.
| Peering.
| Look at how they cleaned out the papaya. They must love it!
|

|
|
| It must've eaten everything good off the top.
| Staring.

| More Central District

| Saint John's Cathedral.

| Hong Kong Zoological and Botanical Gardens

|
| A panoramic movie of the zoo's central fountain.
| How many statues can you spot? (in the Hong Kong Zoological and Botanical
Gardens) I know there's at least six.
| Flamingos and a stream. I like the stream more. :) Too bad the screen is
in the way.
| Flamingos from the other direction.
|
 |
|
| Storks with black butts and necks?

| I like the lighting and decor of this restaurant I spotted on Hollywood
Road.
|
I passed many chic art galleries on Hollywood Road near Lan Kwai Fong.
| Lan Kwai Fong, a hip nightlife street/area.
| Looking the other direction on Lan Kwai Fong.

|
Queens Road Central has lots of shopping.
| Looking eastward down Wellington Street from Cochrane Street.
| I discovered a food market on Graham street near Wellington. It's much
like the markets in Shanghai, but people don't yell for your
attention/business as you walk by and also this one is much bigger: spread
over half a dozen blocks, it's literally the city's central market.
| Cochrane Street just goes up and up.
