Arrived in Hong Kong

I arrived in Hong Kong at 8pm on Tuesday (HK time). The flight was 16 hours, but it wasn't too bad because no one was sitting next to me. Immigration and customs was easy. They just stamped my Passport, and I proceeded to baggage. We took a subway from the airport to downtown Hong Kong. I cannot wait to ride the subway in the daytime. The buildings look amazing at night with all their lights, and it looked like we were riding beside various waterways. Speaking of the buildings, they are huge and so different, amazingly modern. My friends say it reminds them of the buildings in New York City.

We arrived at the hotel at 11pm. In HK, most everyone speaks both mandarin and English, which makes for an easier transition out of the states. Probably won't be the case in Beijing and Shanghai.

Sorry no photos yet, but its night time. Tomorrow we're off to Lantau Island, home of the world's biggest Buddha, so those pictures should be cool. Stay tuned ; )
