[...] Last Saturday was Veteran’s Day in the U.S. but in Hong Kong it was the final day of the historic Star Ferry. They’re relocating the ferry to a different pier. I’m glad I had a chance to take it–many times–at its original place, but I’m not too teary-eyed about it moving as some seasoned Hong Kongers are. I don’t really care too much about it, but it was a great unique icon of Hong Kong with very a very cheap fare (like US$0.25) to go between Hong Kong Island and the Kowloon peninsula. Here’s a link to K’s blog about it. [...]

Charles, I find peace walking around this city. It never would make someone feel tired because everybody else does, it’s like walking on a big Theme Park with lots of shopping malls around each block.

Asha - I’m happy. I don’t think I will hate this phone real soon although I’m “fondering” on buying a new digital, at the moment this little gadget is keeping me company.

JV - if you want to visit my province, you’re gonna love it. Well when I was still in College, the only means of transportation for me is the ferry, comes high and hell waters. Nowadays, whenever I visit home after living here in HK for quite a while now, I avoid the ferry - meron din kaming eroplano dun anoh? Hahaha. But yeah, once in a while it makes you think, “what if” may disaster? Hopefully, it will not happen. *sign of the cross*

Range - I forgot to tell you, yes I actually received the lovely postcard. Your handwriting is quite funny tho. I loved it. Thank you.

Sachiko - Sometimes the lack of update was due to time constraints. Minsan, I have a lot of things to write pero kapag andito naka harap na ako sa laptop, it vanished. May jinx ata sa writing table ko. Alam ko na, dahil sa Samsung phone. Cheers!

Joy, only when I feel like, yung kunyari tourist ako. Most of the time, I walk on the same routes. HK is not that big tho, although crowded di nakakapagod pero orderly dito anytime of the day it’s safe. And the one wearing sunglasses is obviously yours truly. Tanungin ba daw? Panis!

I visited HK 10 years ago. Didn’t have the chance to ride your ferry boats. Wasn’t interested of it, actually. I was overwhelmed of the shopping galore. Do you take the ferry everyday? Wow, amazing.

The HK pictures are nice, buildings, buildings, and buildings. And hey, that guy in sunglasses looked cute. I wonder who could he be?

Took the ferry from Vancouver to the Island in Canada. A great ride. BTW K, did you get my postcard from Canada? I mailed a few days before I left I think.
