crowded

HK is the most crowded place on earth. In terms of new/modern existing right next to dilapidated/rundown, it beats NY by about a million times. Take a look at how tightly packed people live together!

Plus electric signs look amazingly cool in Chinese--it's like I'm watching Akira when I look at these things:

Today we went around tourist trap spots. First to Victoria Peak. This place sucks. Am I completely lame if I admit that the culturally edifying experiences are boring? Maybe just American. We ate lunch at HK's equivalent of Whole Foods and then wandered around Tsim Sha Tsui with all the expats, Chinese-Canadians, and South Africans (white). BTW, every white person around here wearing a suit is an investment banker.
Simon and Cynth have been shooting an insane amount of footage so expect an MTV style report coming up... B-roll city!
