Favorite Vacations 2 - Hong Kong & Vietnam '08



In late February and early March this year, we vacationed in Hong Kong and Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam for 10 days. (Please see more pictures in the Photo Albums-link on the right). Although Hong Kong was a bit chilly and rainy, we had a great time going sightseeing, eating fabulous food, checking out antique shops, etc. It has been a part of China for 10 years now-but still is the most westernized and friendly place for us foreigners. We stayed at the world class JW Marriott Hong Kong-a great hotel in all areas! Our favorite sights were Peak Tram, the historical cable car that takes you to the breath taking view of the city. Also, Kowloon is a quick ride on a ferry to the other side of Hong Kong where things are less touristy and more knitty gritty, if you know what I mean.....
