Ghost Town
With a typhoon approaching, Des Voeux Road Central has become a ghost town. It's downright creepy

I have never been asked so many times if I wanted a custom suit, copy Rolex or handbag in my life. It was much more than in Thailand. It seemed like a lot of the guys had the same business card as well.
I wish I had more time to spend in HK as it was fun. Stay safe over there guys. Pic from hotel room. The worst Slurpee of my life. I try to have a Slurpee in new places and Asian countries seem to love Slurpees like I do. Stuffed crab leg, yummy! Ladies Marketplace View of HK Island skyline at night. It was beautiful. |

Wow that's crazy. Looks like you guys are high enough to avoid something short of a Hollywood style wave. Stay safe. Have you ever left for a typhoon warning? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

Being able to walk hundreds of meters through Sheung Wan without brushing against a single other soul... it felt great |

Yep, not many container ships passing by my balcony today...

Remember that 10 we had a couple of years ago? That was a bit different though. But yeah, an 8 like what we're experience at the moment, isn't really a bid deal (for most people in HK). That said, one should be smart and perhaps not go out for e.g. a run (just saw a guy out running)
Cheers, Joe
