Hong Kong Day 2

Day two in Hong Kong started very early with a quick spout of office work before Lori and I headed on the Star Ferry over to Hong Kong Island in search of Stanley Market… too much shopping. We met up with Jon and Ronan and went back to the ship to drop Jon off to work and pick up Liz; while we were leaving the Ocean Ferry Terminal, a local cable news station stopped the girls and I to conduct a very random interview about Chinese actresses and models… who knows. Back over to the island, we had to take the ferry, a bus and finally a tram to reach Victoria Peak – the highest point on Hong Kong Island – and spent a few moments there before having to return to the ship again to pick up Jon for family dinner. I treated the Cruise Staff to an evening at the Jade Garden (known well by Lucy after an episode of egg in her food) and again to the night market.
