This is the view I see as soon as entering our apartment building...no elevator, so this begins my trek up to our 5th floor apartment...yes, Chris, you can now laugh at me for never taking the stairs at work!
Amongst my other daily routines is the regular trek to get water. We haven't figured out yet if this is one of those "don't drink the water" places. So, in the mean time, we're playing it safe. I saw a program on the Discovery chnnel the other day that showed these women living in the desert who had to travel 3 hours every day to get water. While my trek is only about 10 minutes away, including the use of a convenient escalator, somehow I can relate! So, needless to say, I'm treking up and down those stairs on a fairly regular basis with water jugs and other grocery items in hand! Of course, Zoe doesn't seem to mind.
This is one of the many great views in Hong Kong, this one from the HK Botanical Gardens:
The Botanical Gardens also has a small, free zoo which contains some monkeys, orangutans and a jaguar:
And finally, you've heard the music, gone to the show, now wear the clothes!*:
*U2 clothes has no affiliation with U2 the band, any resemblance is purely coincidental.

Still lovin' the pics. Especially that one with the fountain and the buildings in the background.
I was looking back on your McDonald's post from before you moved to HK. Have you tried McD's yet there? Is it like what you expected or not? Please have lunch there one day and take a picture of your lunch. :)
