These are today\u2019s postings, all taken within a few blocks of our hotel or from the hotel itself. <\/span>Our hotel is that tall slim building with the rounded ends. <\/span>The streets were saturated. <\/span>Thousands upon thousands upon thousands, everywhere. <\/span>We found a few gifts and took some pictures. <\/span>We do better on big ticket items in the U.S., at least for a while longer until prices at home catch up with the plummeting dollar. <\/span>Had a dim sum lunch at the hotel \u2013 it was wonderful but way too expensive so it was Big Macs for dinner! <\/span>Feet and legs are sore but once again, heads are filled up. <\/span>I did perspective correction on two of the images below. <\/span>See if you can guess which ones. <\/span>Our room has an ipod player and we\u2019re in 7th<\/sup> heaven listening to our own tunes. <\/span>Asia has a serious melody deficiency and the English TV channels are mostly Euro trash. <\/span>U.S. satellite radio could clean up over here. <\/span>\"babyzilla.jpg\"<\/a>\"gold-fish-store.jpg\"<\/a>\"hk4.jpg\"<\/a>\"hk5.jpg\"<\/a>\"little-fat-sheep.jpg\"<\/a>\"hk8.jpg\"<\/a>\"hk7.jpg\"<\/a>\"hk13.jpg\"<\/a>\"hk11.jpg\"<\/a>\"hk10.jpg\"<\/a>\"hk9.jpg\"<\/a>\"hk12.jpg\"<\/a>\"langham-place-mongkok-hong.jpg\"<\/a>\"hk6.jpg\"<\/a>\"hk3.jpg\"<\/a>\"hk1.jpg\"<\/a>\"hk2.jpg\"<\/a>\"Discovery<\/a>\"Northern<\/a>\"Deutschland\"<\/a>\"Victoria<\/a>\"HK<\/a>\"HK<\/a><\/p>\n
