Hong Kong Airport

Orchids are everywhere in this Airport and shops are abundant! I spent 6hrs there on the way to Bangkok and on the way back to Toronto. I took a quick cab tour of some of the city....WOW so many people, you can not really understand until you see it. Many people live in high rise buildings with apartments very close together, you better not need your personal space if you move here that is for sure. It reminded me of Quebec in a way because all of the signs are both in Chinese and in English. Everyone speaks English here that I spoke to.

While I was in the airport I found two books I am excited to start reading by chinese authors "Red Dust" about the author Ma Jian's Trek through China to Tibet and "Shanghai Baby" by Wei Hui which was publicly burned in China for its sensual nature and irreverent style. Wow Publicly burned!
