Christmas Dinner in Hong Kong
I spent Christmas in Hong Kong with my brother and his wife. At the Christmas dinner (held in the Gold Coast Hotel, in Tuen Mun in the New Territories for all the members and spouses / partners of his company) there was one other guy wearing a kilt so we got photographed together. Hong Kong is a fascinating city, one that never sleeps - constantly on the go. It is incredibly busy and the architecture is like Manhattan x 10. Anyway, here are a few pics:
The city from Victoria Peak
The city by night - spectacular

That's the last time I drink cheap whiskey for dinner!

Great to see a thread from you Niall. The last time I had that view was when I visited my friend in Aussie in 1996. It was the former airport then and the plane swept over the harbour to land, quite something. Happy new year.

Sounds like a great Christmas. I was up for an assignment in Hong Kong back in the early '90's. Unfortunately, the other candidate had more experience in the orient than I did. Nice photos of the skyline. Thanks for posting.

Thanks for the pics! It's a treat to meet someone else kilted when you travel so far.
