Fish in Hong Kong Part. 2

Full Day 1:

Wake in the amazing Hilton Conrad Hotel and go up to the Executive Business lounge for a warm breakfast or eggs, lox, fruit, and other interesting east/west foods. Oh yeah and lots of tea.

Met with representatives from OEC shipping firm for a short meeting in the morning and listen to proposals.

Headed off for Victoria Peak took a tram ride up at an almost 45 degree angle. The peak was amazing you could see right out to the bay and the mountains.

Went back to the hotel lounge for tea time, apparently during the British influence worked its was a lot farther into the culture then I realized. Almost all of the signs with English translations are written with the UK spelling/words (elevator=lifts and line=queue).

After enjoying a relaxing cup of tea and free Wi-Fi it was time for dinner at the Jumbo Floating Restaurant. *Warning* This place is a massive tourist scam. They have a $10/per person cover charge plus will put town a small plate of something you did not order on the table and charge you $27 for it. They try to rope you into the expensive fancy level by not telling you that the food and style is more casual on the next deck up. The food was okay but it is defiantly a place to avoid.

That is it for today I will be posting tomorrows events sometime later on and will try to get these coming out at a regular daily time. If you would like to see photos of the places I have been feel free to check out my Picasa account which will have updated photos throughout the trip (as of right now there are no photos from the plane, still trying to get those up).
