Hong Kong-December 25

Here we are on Christmas morning.  We are exhausted as you can see but were really happy.


The hotel gave us a giant muffin the night before.  It was nicely wrapped up and on the bed when we got home on Christmas Eve.


Caroline and I with our presents.





We had one place left to go to complete our tour.  Caroline wanted to go to Ladies Market.  It is a huge street of vendors.  I wasn't all that interested but we had to take the metro to get there so I thought it was a great chance to take the Metro and learn it.  It was a great experience.  The market was really fun.


Caroline is getting good at the Metros around here.  She knew exactly what to do.  The metro is clean.  They do not allow food or drinks.


The market is in the older part of Hong Kong.  A really quick ride from the hotel.



We had a great time.  Caroline really learned about haggling.  I didn't realize she would learn so much.  We bought great stuff really cheap.


Here is a typical 10 pm night near the hotel.  The streets are mobbed.  The city is the most crowded that I have ever seen.





Great trip.  We will do this one again!!
