Hong Kong, Part II

Hi Y'all,

The first part of this post is from a coffee shop on the Avenue of Stars (or something like that), with a great view of the harbor and a very 'kewl' statue of Bruce Lee. Yep, Rocky got to meet Bruce.

Off in a few to Shenzhen, where I'll catch a flight to Hohhot tomorrow morning. The typhoon has only sprayed a little bit of water so far, so it looks like no problem for an early departure.
I've made it back to the hostel in Hong Kong, where the typhoon has now brought more rain. Yesterday, I took the train to The Peak, an overlook on Hong Kong Island that showcases the city. At least on clear days. I thought this would be a good contrast against the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain pic from a few days ago.

I don't know how the internet access will turn out in Hohhot, but I'll try to post when I can. I don't expect to be able to view the blog until I return to the States, so I look forward to some good comments when I return.

Later...
G

I like the pics. Interestingly, we have had access to Bruce Lee movies this week.

Also, got to see some of the celebration on the 8th in Beijing for the 2008 Olympics. I should have taped, but more steps are involved with my new setup and it was over before I could get everything up and running.

Today is 1st day of school -
