Hong Kong Photos

Man jet lag stinks! I havent even had the energy to upload photos yet, but I did upload some from the first couple of days while we were in HK. So what did we do? We did the usual and shopped and saw the sights!

Sunrise View from my dad's apartment- what an amazing view to wake up to! Living in Hong Kong we lived on the southern side of the island (the quiet side) so this was actually my first time waking up to such an amazing view!


Repulse Bay- famous 'hole' in the building- rumor says its to allow a mystical dragon thru when it comes down from the mountain on its way to the ocean, some also say the Architect was just being crazy. "Repulse" bay was named after a British navy ship- they were good at scaring off the pirates. Repulse bay was also home to "The Repulse Bay" which was one of the most prestigous resorts in Asia pre- World War II and was taken over by the Japanese, the repulse bay cliffs was the site where massacres took place and the bodies were dumped into the bay. Now its just home to lots of people and apartments and the temple on the beach!

Flower Stand in Stanley Market- my favorite flowers- ORCHIDS!


Funny thing we came across, first glance I thought both were stuffed animals!
