If you clcik on this picture you will be able to see a "junk boat" in the harbor. Here is an explanation from wiki- A junk is an ancient Chinese sailing vessel design still in use today. Junks were developed during the Han Dynasty (206 BC–220 AD) and were used as sea-going vessels as early as the 2nd century AD. They evolved in the later dynasties, and were used throughout Asia for extensive ocean voyages. They were found, and in lesser numbers are still found, throughout South-East Asia and India, but primarily in China, perhaps most famously in Hong Kong. Found more broadly today is a growing number of modern recreational junk-rigged sailboats.
Hong Kong harbor from the 25th floor of the Prince building. Tonight I had dinner with the IT Director of HKDL. After my dim sum lunch Susan suggested a more western restaurant that specialized in fish. Their Salmon was very good as well was the sea bass that they let me try. All the fish was brought to the table to preview before ordering.
