Happy Holidays from Hong Kong!

We've returned from China to discover that summer has finally come in Auckland.  Our first day back was a beautiful, breezy 80 degree day.  Unfortunately the jet lag had both of us napping it much away.  Here are a few images from Hong Kong to ring in the season.

As a side note, we couldn't access our blog in People's Republic of China (hence the belated updates).  It looks like the Chinese government has blocked all blogspot.com web addresses- perhaps as part of their ongoing attempts at monitoring/suppressing free speech.

Google's take on the issue of Chinese government actively breaking in to human rights activist's email accounts.

Blue Christmas?

Merry X-mas everyone!

  1. I know you two are both taking pics, and I gotta say .. they are really good. After having taken my photo class I can be a bit more authoritative, and you both have a good eye for composition and subject. I'm serious.

  2. hey your image "At The Peak on a foggy but beautiful night" is very nice, I think that was the one of the best beautiful night in Hong Kong, if I am planning for Luxury holidays to Hong Kong then I will definitely go for “foggy Peak in Hong Kong” for Hong Kong Holidays.

    Thanks for sharing with us.
