Lights in Hong Kong

Its Monday night at the beginning of week 2 and I'd have hoped to have added a few more posts than I have. I just have not had the time - come on guys - would you waste the time in your hotel or spill out onto the streets of Hong Kong? Here's the postcard...

I've settled into routine at work and am enjoying my time with the other designers and staff, who are just the friendliest bunch I've met in a long while. I've been taken out most nights, shown some great places, from the crowds of people, all the shops of little vinyl figures in Mong Kok, to the peace and tranquility of the giant buddha at Lantau. Hong Kong has many lights. I've been taking as many photos as I can, and taking it all in. For a designer, this place is amazing, and I'm amazed by the variety of fun things in shop windows. Now that I've started to get off the main drag, there's so many markets and stores that just have so much to see. Food is great, and there's a great variety on offer, on Saturday I had Cantonese Chicken, so hot that tears ran down my cheeks, not surprising considering all the baked chillis on the plate.. On Sunday I had to rest, catch a movie and take stock, and now I'm back into another week.

The photo was taken in Harbour City - the big mall down the road, they've put a few decorations up.
