See the wonderful the view of the downtown lighte that we were SUPPOSED to see from the ship? Well, as we stood in the freezing wind trying to hold on to each other and peek over the mountains blocking the fireworks, we saw... NOTHING!Actually we ended up having a BBQ
on the deck (see our cooks above) and drak a lot of Australian wine (that is me with Frank, our ESL specialist from Rome who also happens to play trumpet in a Jazz street band:)
But we brought the ship into Hong Kong harbor the follwoing day and ended up docking right next to a huge mall that was beautifully decorated. The stores and the people were a clear indication as to the amount of wealth that has accumulated on this island... We certainly looked like the poorer tourists with wide eyes looking in amazement at the luxury stores everywhere...
