HONG KONG

Panorama view of Hong Kong island from Kowloon
Side street in Kowloon
in between two main streets
beautiful chinese Banyon trees
i made a stop back at the Shanghai expo grounds to see what the scene was like after
the expo official ended. The Chinese Pavillion was still open, and packed full of visitors


Visit to the Great Wall

We hiked along the great wall for about four hours. The wall follows the terrain
of the mountains, so at some points the descents and inclines were very steep, the stones were very smooth so we could actually slide down over them.

a weird gift shop scene
