Hong Kong - October 2021

1 October is National Day. The flags here looked great...

Headed to Wan Chai one day for a walk and a coffee at NOC. I like the coffee there...


Wan Chai street scene...


Time for a beach day and headed to South Bay, even thought it was overcast. Caught the bus to Repulse Bay and walked the last bit. It was a warm day and the water was lovely. 




Helicopter was hovering as someone had gone missing. He was later found dead.



Walking to work down the escalator...


Breakfast one day at Barista by Givres...


Now that Central Market has opened, I go there for lunch sometimes...


One night after work I caught the ferry to Hung Hom and walked back along the harbour.




 It was a beautiful night so I stopped for a beer along the way... 



Walked up The Peak one day and stopped for a lemon tea...


I have so many photos from up there, but I liked this one for the reflection of ICC...


On the way walking around Lugard Road...


I've only seen boar before at night. Seems that they are getting more confident. This one had some babies with her.


Coming to work on Dress in Pink Day - fundraiser for breast cancer...


Had breakfast at Halfway Coffee in Sheung Wan. I had recently been to the Mongkok branch so thought I'd try this one as it is close to home...



I've been meaning to try and make dumplings so one night I decided to give it a go. I went to the market and bought the 'skins' and then bought pork mince, Chinese chives and Chinese cabbage. It was quite time-consuming and took a while to get the process right. 


Success !! And they were super tasty.


One Sunday I met some friends for coffee in Tai Kwun, That turned into drinks...


Then on the spur of the moment, we caught a taxi for Wan Chai for a late lunch (Gui Zhou noodles) than an Uber to Stanley for more drinks and watched the sunset...


This is my guilty pleasure at Cafe de Coral which is an Asian fast food chain...


Went for Dim Sum one weekend at Dim Ding 1968 which is close to me on Wyndham Street...

I bought a new entertainment unit off a friend and re-arranged my apartment...

Lunch again in Central Market...

Sushi for dinner from Wellcome...

Melbourne - June 2024

Had to go to Melbourne for work. Flew on the Monday morning and straight to the office. After work I checked in to Voco and crossed Lonsdale...
