hong kong: with nate

on the weekend, we took the #6 bus to stanley market on the winding road past scenic repulse bay...

my mom spent her middle school years living in hong kong with her family,
so we paid homage to her old flat in stanley village from our moving bus.
i still hope that she can give me a personal hk tour someday.

after naps all around, we decided to head up victoria peak. maybe, just maybe the fog would clear.
but nate's face at the top of the tram says it all...

in the time it took for us to waffle back and forth about going down or not, the fog cleared! IMG_3275

 sage performed her tricks for us: waving, clapping, swiping anything that resembles a bow near her hair...

we walked to the ocean and rode the star ferry across to kowloon as the sun was setting. 
the light show was lame, but this view wasn't:

after church on sunday, we wanted to get a glimpse of the temple...

 in our last few hours, we explored nathan road and the surrounding markets, then jumped on a plane back home.
