Yeah there was a bit of smog, is a bit worse than the pics show. Apparently it's a winter problem so I was told when the winds change direction and the air gets blown down from mainland china where it's a lot worse.
Went on the ferry but not at night, took 2 nighttime views of the harbour, up in the bar at the peninsula paying £20 for a glass of wine only to be greeted by blinds obscuring the view, seriously wtf? And skinted it out with the plebs on harbour side after a quick visit to 7/11 to stock up on ale

Went over to Lantau today and made every schoolboy tourist error possible by paying too much, hitting the worst of the queue times and not allowing enough time, research, research, research.....
Anyway at least the cable car trip was nice even if we only got 45 mins at the top
Saw some dude taking a selfie with a cow up there too wtf? He actually spent 10 mins and about 30-40 goes making sure he got the right shot too!

Anyway, I always enjoy Hong Kong. Glad to see it's not hugely changed since I first went 25 years ago and there is still a good mix of old Asia still there which is what I really like....
Hopping over to Thailand in the morning for the next leg.
