Brent & Larry’s Big (Asia) Adventure

Running around Hong Kong with special guest Ramya

December 7, 2008 · 1 Comment

After we had dim sum, we took the ferry across the harbor with Ramya to explore Central Hong Kong. We quickly got lost amongst all the freaking boutiques in the confusing enclosed walkways. It’s like they’re forcing you to buy designer clothing or else…

We finally emerged out of the financial district and ended up in SoHo, which is a very cool arts and antiques area. If we had more time, we definitely would have hung out there for happy hour (it seemed every place had food and drink specials). Checked out some art including a Vietnamese art gallery. They were charging absurd prices for things we saw in Vietnam for 1/4 of the price two years ago. Pretty sure the Vietnamese art market hasn’t gone up 400% in two years.

Then we walked to the tram to go up the peak. It was a long walk there, and I (Larry) was not pleased. We went up to the top. I was finished with the view in about 15 seconds. Brent needed more time to take it in. Anyway, here’s the video of our day in Hong Kong:
