Our last destination on the SEA Tour 2013 was Hong Kong, a westernized city with the chinese oddities as a twist. I left modern out of the presentation phrase, because honestly it seems, that they've built only one building to the shoreline at the Kowloon side of the city after I visited this city about 10 yrs ago. Also, even the taxi cars seemed to be the same make and model as 10 yrs ago.
When you've come this far on your Asian trip, you're bound to know the culmination point of the Asian culture. Yes, you already guessed it, the rice hat. Wearing it in public areas will earn you the respect of the Asian people.
If you like big Asian cities, but you're not keen to dirtyness, risky food decisions or shitty transportation and you're a big spender, HK is the place for you.
It seems, that instead of taking pictures for example of the 2 IFC, I apparently took pics of this sad ugly duckling of a building.
A nice way to see the city from the sea is to take the public round-trip ferry from pier to pier. Here you can relax and drink some warm canned coconut milk, while making smart decisions on how to pose on the next group photo you're about to take.
This piece of a pier, with four construction workers, was floating in the middle of a busy sea fairway.
You haven't been to HK, if you haven't done the Bruce Lee pose in front of the Bruce Lee statue. And if you're in front of the Bruce Lee statue, but not doing the pose, you deserve to be punched in the face.
Without a doubt one of the most breathtaking city skylines in the world.
It wasn't a riot about to begin, but a regular night at the Lan Kwai Wong -neighbourhood of nightclubs and bars.
The purpose of taking selfies with a random guys camera must be, that they want to be posted on a travel blog on the other side of the world.
In this picture, you can easily spot the difference between Asian high-class cosmopolites having a glass of wine after work and European recreational travellers spending their last weekend.
Finally, after many days, some nutritious fastfood. Wait?! It's the time for the fucking breakfast menu burgers at McD's.
It takes about an hour by a fast ferry to reach Macau from Hong Kong.
Macau is a place of gambling in casinos and luxorious hotel-life. It's just that
ridiculous, that you might want to see it with your own eyes.
You notice from the demography of the people in the background, that we are not in Venice, Italy. Instead we're at the Venetian Casino in Macau. They say it's one the worlds largest buildings and if it fits an artificial Venice inside, it must be true.
There it is, all of the posts of the SEA Tour 2013 are done. For all you SEA travel planners out there, my advise to you is: Buy a rice hat, wear it with pride, and respect the trail and the people along the way.
