Hong Kong

I'm getting ready for the prenuptial trip to Hong Kong in May.
First I'm making a google map so I can keep track of what is where. Then I've gone to the Hong Kong Tourism Board site: Discover Hong Kong.
We'll have to go to Victoria Peak on Hong Kong Island for the Funicular and the view. To get there, take the Peak Tram from the Lower Peak Tram Terminus on Garden Road (Bus 15C from the lay-by outside Central Pier 6 or walk from MTR Central Station Exit J2).
We'll also have to take the Star Ferry from Kowloon to Hong Kong Island, just to see the harbor.
And then I'm searching through Flickr to find some good photo galleries of Hong Kong by tourists.
And then we did some exploratory searches for flights from Pittsburgh to Hong Kong. The best one right now is on United, either via Chicago or San Francisco, at $972.

  1. Victoria Peak is definitely something we have to do. I just hope that we get more clear skies than last time i was there. Although it's kind of interesting to see the city shrouded in fog as well.

    As for the flights, Mandy is going to LA in early November and I asked her to talk to her aunt and the travel agent so we will see what kind of deals we can get. Maybe they can figure out a flight schedule so we arrive about the same time anyways.
