Younger Brother visit to Hong Kong

I have discovered many new interesting places to go to in Hong Kong and was excited to show my younger brother Syahman around but had to cut back my itinerary when I found out his young wife is in the early stages of her second pregnancy. The summer this year it seems is hotter than usual so it was difficult even for us to be out and about.....

It did not help that midway Hong Kong was hit by Tropical Storm Goni. Still we manage to cover a lot, here are the highlights!

Lantau Island - Cheung Sha Beach. There are many other nice beaches in Hong Kong which I plan to visit hopefully within the next few months. It was a hot hot day but my kids enjoyed the clean beach and it was quite safe with a life guard on duty.



Lantau Island - Tai O Fishing Village. A disappointment really, or was it just too hot. There was a lot of seafood restaurant, and cheap fares to watch dolphins in the sea.

Kowloon - Avenue of the Stars. A Great View of Hong Kong Habour.



Man Mo Temple - Hollywood Road


The Peak



Madame Tussuad's




Disneyland Hong Kong




Stanley Market / Beach


Halal Dim Sum at Wan Chai Islamic Centre

Golden Computer Centre - Sham Shui Po

Mongkok Markets
