this city is huge!

hello. it is about 9:30pm, and paul is out cold. we walked around all day, and i really wore him out. i am about to go out to the night market to take some pictures of all the neon signs. we rode a 800 meter escalator, the victoria peak trolley, the metro, ate at hard rock(what is a blaisdell vacation w/o a trip to hard rock?), and walked through the little markets off the busy streets. those little alleys are the most interesting, the locals are there selling chickens and fresh fish, and local produce. shopping is definitely the main attraction here in hong kong. here are a couple of pics from today.

paul met some new friends. these girls just kept staring at paul and smiling. so they wanted to get a pic with him.

the symphony of lights over victoria harbor. huge light and firework show every night at 8pm. this is from our hotel room.

right after the light show. lighting for about an hour non stop over the harbor. i have never seen so much lighting.

paul loves fashion.

Dave its soo cool to see what you guys are doing. That picture of the lightning is awesome. Its really weird to think you guys are so far away. Dont let Paul run off with any asians...they look sweet but are tough chicks.
