Woody Allen once said, success is eighty percent showing up. So keeping that in mind I ignored the crappy weather and proceeded on my second day in HK. I took in a lot of Hong Kong’s sights and sounds by foot. I ventured around Central, which is on the northern part of Hong Kong island and where all the action appears to be.

In spite of the weather, I took the tram up to the Peak, the highest point on Hong Kong island. Myself and the other five hundred people were greeted with nothing but a panoramic view of fog and mist. I don’t know what I expected to see because on the ground you could clearly see the fog blocking the few of the mountains. When I am back in Hong Kong in three weeks, I hope the weather will permit me a better view from the top.

I’m off to Ho Chi Minh tomorrow.
