And sometime in late March or there abouts, Jochen called on the services of his trusted travel agent Barry in order to make arrangements for me to travel around the world in 40 or so days.
The final route I settled on – having in mind my disgust for flying more than 8 hours in one go – did not always fully comply with my principles but I guess that is the price you have to pay when you decide to live in Australia and don’t always fancy the idea of going via Singapore. Hence Hong Kong was this time around the first stop over, followed by a few days London, to meet some lovely friends there.
The Hong Kong interlude was planned for only 2 days during which I re-traced some old and well known paths. Staying in Kowloon I took the ferry to the island and from there the double story tram to wiggle my way towards Fortitude Valley. (may be in the vain hope that the name might rub off on my business?!?) Every now and then getting off and looking at some of the lively markets.
And yes, this was my view out of my hotel room. pretty ain't it?
