Japanese pizza and sushi; scallops


Shrimp; the Japanese pizza from another angle - SO GOOD (am I making you salivate?! I hope so)

Another pizza - blander taste than the previous one; group picture!

Journey to North Point

North Point was like Hokkien Town - everywhere we went, someone spoke our language - Hokkien. From the salesladies in the department stores to the grocers to the owners of the shack-shops - everyone could speak our language. Weeeeiiirrrrddd... especially since I thought in Hong Kong I'd hear more Cantonese than Hokkien, or Tagalog, or Mandarin, or English...


Waiting at the bus stop; on the double-decker bus
