Hong Kong Harbor and Skyline

We had a blog post ready last week, but somehow lost it. I was trying to move pictures around, and still had touble putting them where I wanted them. So, today I won't worry where they go. I am just going to put them on the blog. The Hong Kong harbor is only a few blocks from our office, but we haven't taken a trip in the daytime to it until Saturday. (We had gone at night for the fireworks). It was a beautiful day. Temperature about 70 degrees. Many visitors had the same idea. I'll show a few pictures of the harbor, the ferry that crosses to Kowloon, other boats, and pictures from the harbor of the Hong Kong skyline.






The beautiful Hong Kong Skyline with its tall buildings.















When completed, this building will be the tallest in Hong Kong. It is on the Kowloon side.












A favorite spot along the water to drop in a fishing line. Not sure what they catch.














Many boats ply these waters. They come in all shapes and sizes. Ferries, fishing vessels, sight-seeing boats etc.
















I even had my portrait with the Kowloon shore in the background.















A Chinese junk-- Probably fishing/

















The Star Ferry goes between Wan Chai and central on Hong Kong Island to Kowloon. No fare for seniors. The alternate way is to go under the harbor either by bus or train.





The ferry is on its sway.
