Buying trip to Stanley

On the south end of Hong Kong Island is the town of Stanley. It looks out over the China Sea. In the center of the town is the famous Stanley Market. Scores of booths, mostly under cover, with all kinds of clothing, jewelry, ceramics, shoes you can imagine. They cater to American sizes, which we definintely need. There are some great bargains. Jay was able to find some casual clothes to wear which he will need as he visits water projects on our tours. Jena Vee found some lovely blouses and skirts. The bus ride to Stanley takes about 30 minutes, goes through a mountain tunnel and then winds through mountainous terrain overlooking apartments and harbor below. We were on the top of a two decked bus so had a great view. Elder and Sister Woolsey were our tour guides on February 25.

The harbor is beautiful from the highway. Many large apartments along the way
