JUNE 13 - WE TAKE A TOUR OF KOWLOON, CHINA.

Below in the harbour we see this Cruise ship,  I thought it was the Ferry boat at first, there is one that goes back and forth between Kowloon, and the Island of Hong Kong.  They also have some tunnels now. We decided to go on a bus tour to see the city.  Derek talked to the hotel desk clerks to locate one, they referred us to a young lady over in a section of the hotel just for that purpose and she told us about "THE BIG BUS TOUR"  we bought tickets from her and she directed us where to get on the Ferry to go to Casway Bay to get the bus. 


Down by the ferry we saw this golden flower,
so we had to get our picture by it.



Here we are on the big bus, as you see Rita on
upper deck of the bus, so we have a good view.
 
We see this beautiful building, so Chinese.
 

Derek finds a news paper to put over his head, so he won't burn his head.  I loved seeing some trees or bushes with flowers on.
 
We are enjoying the breeze and seeing all the tall buildings.
 
We are in center of Kowloon now, that's why I took the picture.
 
As you can see I am busy taking pictures.  Well Rita and Derek are too.
 
Her I am taking more pictures, Rita takes my picture.
 

Here we are riding along the Casway bay
 
They are loaded with tall buildings, when Loren & I
were in here in 1990 Kowloon didn't have these tall
building, it has changed so much.

I love the saying on this building, hope you can read it.

This is a different kind of building.
 
We had ear phones to listen to the narration, they told
us about the area and what were in some of the big building.
It was a very interesting tour.  Our tickets were good for two days.
