Part I of Mike & Tracey's visit
Mike was in HK for a couple of days, but Tracey was able to spend the week with us. We packed a lot into the week she was in town. We went all over Hong Kong by boat, MTR, tram, taxi, and lots of walking. We walked all over Central and Wan Chai to shop and explore. We also went to several markets across the water in Kowloon. The flower market was beautiful. So many gorgeous plants and flowers for great prices. We also went to the Ladies Market several times shopping for purses and other items. It was great weather - not too hot (finally!)
We enjoyed a Thai cooking class during the week as well. The 3 of us took whole chilies, lemon grass, whole garlic, shallots, etc and made a curry paste with a mortar and pistol. It was a lot of hard work, but well worth it.
When Mike joined us after his business trip, we went to a nice dinner at Sevva with a great view of the harbor and Central. We ventured out to Lantau Island to see the big Buddha and ride the cable car. We also took a ferry out to Lamma island for an evening boat ride and seafood dinner.
