It seems decades ago since I was in Hong Kong. Oh hold on, it was almost decades ago. I took these in April 2004, when you might recall we were just getting over the SARs pandemic!

It’s great to have photos of past trips. The memories are special and it does give a renewed perspective when we can’t get there. Definitely a bright spot after that SARS pandemic and good memory for getting over this one!
I went for Bright Blue today:

I have been thinking of Hong Kong recently because I loved it. First visit was 1999, followed by two others c2002 and 2006. Will we ever get back, who knows?

oh you were so fortunate to go so many times, and think you are right it is a big ‘who knows’ on everyone returning there

So much changes with it but sometimes, it feels like nothing’s changed.
Loving the bright colors of the local market 🙂

When I was a teenager, lo these many years ago. My brother worked for BOAC and so the round the world plane ticket cost 50 pounds each I think. We flew to Hong Kong from Japan and our flight was supposed to get in at 3 in the morning so we figured we’d have to sleep in the airport. But the plane had a mechanical problem and so we all got put up in a posh beach front hotel. Most of the other passengers were upset about the delay, missed connections, and the like, and we were grinning from ear to ear!
