the international scene in hong kong is overwhelming... the mix of asia meets middle east meets africa meets europe is electric. which is why it wasn't embarrassing to duck into the italian restaurant with the (asian) acoustic guitarist crooning. check out our new, and very musical, daughter! (who ate spaghetti with fingers that may conduct an orchestra one day....)
on friday, we took the star ferry across the bay and went shopping for tea in the old parts of central...
we let the girls run around at the play park in kowloon (note to self: make sure fuxi takes off the rubbery-soled squeaky shoes before descending the slide)...
we happened across many hipster weddings....
we enjoyed the view from the window of our room (!!)
and then claimed our spots on the "walk of stars" in kowloon to watch the skyscrapers on hong kong island blink and blaze in a coordinated-to-music laser light show. seriously. it happens every night at 8 p.m. it's sort of like the disney fireworks show....except with, like, an ENTIRE CITY.
and here are some travel co. shots that give you a better view of the lights.... trippy.
