Hong Kong - November 2018

First day back in HK after my long European trip, I went to pay for my lunch with Euro, not HKD. The 20s are the same colour. Oops...


Typical HK office block. Restaurants on many floors...


Tried a new Thai place in Sai Ying Pun. These are prawn and cheese things. Interesting...


My work was nominated for a branding award, so I went with my colleague to the awards night at the W Hotel. We cleaned up !




Finally I made it to Happy Valley Racecourse one night...



And won !


Took my colleague from Cyprus to C'est La Vi...



Said goodbye to Eliza as she has finished school and is returning to Sydney for university...


Took a ride on the Star Ferry - it's been a while. I never tire of the view...

Nice touch...



Beautiful pool and spa...



Different treat each night with the turn down service...


One night walked up to IFC for dinner...


Jinmao Tower...


Shanghai Tower and the Bottle Opener building (SWFC)...


View of Pearl Tower from the spa...


Had dinner with colleagues at a cool place somewhere near West Nanjing Road...




Had dinner here. Good Mexican...


Daytime view from the pool...





Really nice restaurant where breakfast was served...
