On Saturday, our CCAI rep, Matthew, gave us a tour of Hong Kong. The first place he took us was Victoria Peak. I was VERY glad to have taken my motion sickness drugs for the bus ride! The peak is the highest point in Hong Kong. The day was fairly clear, so we had a beautiful view.

Next, Matthew took us to the Aberdeen fishing village. We took a boat ride through the village. People have lived for generations on these boats. Matthew said that when they step on land, they feel dizzy!

Matthew then took us to a place where they make jewelry. I bought a sapphire ring.

Finally, we went to the Stanley Market. There were a bunch of stalls selling silk, Chinese art and calligraphy, clothing, etc. It was pretty "touristy".
