Hong Kong for the day

Today we spent the day in Hong Kong. It was very foggy on arrival and for much of the day. A small bird joind us for the approach the night before ....

We caught a shuttle from the new Cruise Terminal at the old Kai Tuk airport to Telford shopping mall, where we bought Octopus cards and used the MTR to go and catch the Star Ferry. We then did the No. 15 bus to the peak for a few foggy views and a nice lunch at the Peak Restaurant, and then did the peak tram down to Central, with another bus to the Star Ferry again.

Then a spot of shopping for souvenirs and cough mixture, an abortive trip to M&S, and then back to the ship for dinner and lifeboat drill. It was voted a pleasant though slightly obscured day!
