Cheung Cheu Island, Hong Kong, China

Went to hong Kong recently, and decided to hop on a ferry and get out of the city. Myself and a couple of friends ended up on Cheung Cheu Island which is about 45 mins from Hong Kong. The island is a small island supported by fishing and some small street vendors. There are no cars allowed, and everyone travels by foot or bike. It was a beautiful day, and I saw some interesting places I had never been. 

Dried fish is a very common commodity sold by local fishermen and street vendors on the island. I didn't have the guts to try one.... 

The coast of the island was mostly cliffs and rocks with a few beaches. 

"The mini Great Wall" as the locals call it.

Anyone read Cantonese? I have no idea what this says.

More Singapore!

More photos from The Crazy Elephant that my computer failed to publish in the last entry...

Singapore

So when I thought of Singapore originally, I pictured something more like Malaysia I guess... Rain forest, mokeys swingin around, everyone walking or riding bikes, and other jungle type scenes..... SO, when I got off the train, I thought I was somehow in NYC by accident. Apparently Singapore is a very wealthy country, and has some amazing architecture, and accomidations. Pretty cool place.

  

 Stingray for dinner! It was so hot tears and snot were everywhere. I got some funny looks.

The following night shots of the city were taken from this boat on top of these buildings.
