A work day in Hong Kong





Many modes of transportation in Hong Kong. Star Ferry that runs across the Harbour with no schedule. They load both decks at the same time, once full they blow the horn and stand-on-it. Had a scarry experience returning on the ferry at night in thick fog. You can hear fog horns everywhere but see nothing, until all of a sudden right beside you is another loaded ferry.
Then there is the Red & White Toyota Taxi Cabs. You never know where you will end up as most do not speak english. The driver passes his cell phone to you and you speak to a person that in turn tells the driver where to go. Bus transporation is everywhere. New double-decker buses that hold 100 pax are very plentiful. Then there is the tunnel that runs under the harbour along with the subway. The roads carry cars on one level, and people on another level. A very young crowd.
