Thanks for the tip on Shau Kei Wan and the Museum of Coastal Defense. <br /><br />On another note, I heard on the news that the artist whose works I saw at the Museum of Art, Wu Guanzhong, died this weekend at the age of 91.Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807205757095971212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2636108676300296664.post-77030551791830258912010-06-26T11:04:48.962-04:002010-06-26T11:04:48.962-04:00Hi Diana --

And a couple of days that are forecast to have lots of rain!! :(<br /><br />Re the tram: recommend taking it all the way east to Shau Kei Wan. And if it's not a rainy day, head to the Museum of Coastal Defence in the area even if you're not military history inclined as there are great views to be had from it.YTSLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930487923185001591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2636108676300296664.post-71343906958587929412010-06-25T21:54:23.634-04:002010-06-25T21:54:23.634-04:00duriandave, Kennedy Town probably takes you anothe...duriandave, Kennedy Town probably takes you another 20-30 mins from Central so if you have the time it is a great ride. You can see how much they are building on the waterfront in that area and there is a whole street of dried fish vendors along the way. <br /><br />sbk-that sounds like a great way to spend your mornings! I think I was on the tram for almost 3 hours altogether, 3 separate rides, $6HK--a tremendous bargain. I am wondering now about some of the other locations it goes to ...Dianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807205757095971212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2636108676300296664.post-8690350566895417572010-06-25T19:41:14.433-04:002010-06-25T19:41:14.433-04:00Hi Diana,

On a visit several years ago I had terrible jet lag and was staying in Causeway Bay near the tram. For several mornings I would ride the tram between 7AM & 8:30AM when I then would meet my daughter for breakfast. At the end of the line I would dutifully pay, get off and then back on.sarah bailey knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08748376721447408580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2636108676300296664.post-43319153981842802852010-06-25T10:56:37.574-04:002010-06-25T10:56:37.574-04:00I *love* riding the tram, but even though I've...I *love* riding the tram, but even though I've rode it many times on each of my trips, I still haven't made it as far as Kennedy Town, just the Western Market. I'll make a point of taking it all the way next time.<br /><br />Enjoy the rest of your time in HK!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
