Hong Kong sights and shopping

We took a bus to the Peak (overlooking Hong Kong and Kowloon) at night, as the view at that time is amazing. The bus ride was a bit scary as the road was windy, narrow and with a steep drop on one side. After we got to the top, Colin led us up a footpath to a place with an amazing view of the city. Take a look at these pictures.

Another night we took a Star Ferry over to Kowloon. Standing on the Kowloon side, we had a beautiful view of Honk Kong. They really light up the buildings nicely at night. Other places of note in Honk Kong that we visited were Causeway Bay and Time Square Plaza.

There are a lot of shopping malls in Hong Kong. Causeway Bay was full of them. One building had two floors of just electronics. Yes, I DID enjoy it. :-) The electronics they had on display were not cheaper than here (much to my dismay). But they did have some things that I have not seen here (like various cordless Skype phones).

Kowloon side had a larger collection of stores carrying cheaper merchandise. I hit the jackpot when I got off at the MongKok MTR (their subway) station. They were selling electronics EVERYWHERE. Cell phones, laptops, TVs. Crazy! I found an electronic mall called Sim City few blocks from the station, and this mall had four floors of only electronics stores. Heaven!!! And this stuff your could bargain for. Some of their web cams were no name, and thus the quality was questionable, but the rest of the stuff looked legit. I loaded up on memory cards, USB hub, headphones, and computer memory. I wanted to walk away with a lot more, but I had to keep it together. :-)
Ladies Market in this area had a lot of good and inexpensive items. Knock-offs were also on display (purses, suitcases, watches, etc.) Good place to go shopping if you don't mind bargaining. If you are not willing to bargain, you will pay too much.
