At last a most appropriate arrival time suited to septuagenarians. Hong Kong, fine and sunny with clear skies, trafficking thru the harbour at 8am. Many years ago we flew into the airport that today is a modern new cruise ship terminal at Kai Tak. As the then runways jutted out into the waters of the harbour it is only logical to turn the place into a cruise terminal.
Buses will shuttle the cruise cargo of happy campers to a choice of three major shopping centres, each locate directly above the MRT. We are likely to spend some time in the air conditioned shops and then take the metro to near Victoria Peak and lunch at Bubba Gumps seafood joint.
Uploading this post at Starbucks before heading out into the 33 degrees and high humidity, but the MRT below this shopping centre will be air conditioned. Until then
