Hong Kong : Walk/Eat/Shop/Friends

April 2026

After a rather diastrous mixed-up and cancellation of the Hong Kong trip in March, I booked a day trip to Hong Kong when I was in Guangzhou in April.

The trip was initially cancelled because of the protest. However, K's meeting in Hong Kong proceeded, and thus I flew to Hong Kong to join him.

Hong Kong Evening

Hong Kong was my first overseas working stint. I have since like the city for its vibrancy and dynamism.

Hong Kong Day

I did my usual walking around the shopping centres and the various streets.

I took the tram to Causeway Bay and back

I had not seen or keep in contact with Suzanna for ages. She was my senior when I was working in Hong Kong. She was helpful and we got along well. On impulse, I texted her. It was great that she was able to adjust her timing so that we could meet. We walked to the harhour front, and I was very happy that we chatted , laugh and still hold similar views about the world. We had our lunch at KowloonTong so that I could meet Annie.

We avoided the protest area.

Temple Street

In the evening, we made a trip to Temple Street for nostalgic reason.

I also contacted Annie, my college friend. She also adjusted her working schedule to have a coffee. I am happy that we are still able to laugh and joke like we used to be. Thanks!
