NY Visitors October 2004

 

We have 3 generations of visitors come from NY - Ann's mom Cathy, brother Richard, and son Mike. Richard and Mike have been here before so they are old hands at navigating the city. It's mom's first trip to Asia and a new experience. We check out museums, do a full day at Ocean Park Aquarium, walk the loop around Victoria Peak, have dinner at Lamma island, experience Wan Chai Market, visit Stanley for shopping, explore Hong Kong Park, attend a Methodist church. Richard and Mike have their own quarters at another tower in the complex and they accompany us on our adventures as well as have time to check out a bit of the nightlife of the city. Richard and Mike have to leave after about 10 days - work is calling, but Mom gets to stay for another week and a half. She becomes comfortable with walking the promenade, visiting the local grocery store, enjoyed the bakery, and locating the morning newspaper. She still remains the 'Scrabble' queen of the family.
