my little adventures.

Once again - about time I posted... Here's a few delightful shots - some of it is proof that Brad came to visit and that we are related, others just show the fun we had. So here it goes. Brad came out to Hong Kong at the beginning of May - just a few days before I took off for Europe, so we got to kick it and it was a delight. It'd probably been a year or so since I'd seen Brad last, so the Orient was a good place to meet up again.

Alright, here's the proof that we're related - we both make strange faces in photos... not sure which face is worse, haha. Anyhow, we took the cable cars up to the Big Buddha and saw a big metal Buddha. You may even note that Brad is not accustomed to Hong Kong's heat, whereas, I must have lived here long enough to be able to wear a sweater in heat and humidity... wow, that's a feat.

Next stop, was to the island of Cheung Chau - just a ferry ride away. A quaint little island with hardly any vehicles. Or normally a quaint little island... as you can see the masses were out and the ferry ride home consisted of a 2 hour queue to just get to the boat. Apparently, that's what happens when you go during the Festival of the Bun... haha.

Though the queues were long all over the island, Brad and I got to see the most incredible parade we've ever seen... There was no beginning or end - just random snippets of parade everywhere we went. We' turn the corner and find a little slice of parade followed by nothing. And lastly, we almost got souvenirs for everyone - but they were just too realistic and breakable with those little googly eyes... Sorry, I know you all wanted a dried fish, maybe next time.
