Hong Kong - The End!

This is the end of the trip since we leave for the US tomorrow. It is also the end of the blog. Incidentally, we found Hong Kong a fitting climax since it was far more interesting and captivating than we had expected.

Proper attire in a Hindu temple

We went with a guide this morning and started by seeing a Balinese play that we didn’t understand even with a translation in English. Then we went to a factory for jewelry, which Marge understood all too well even without a translation. More sightseeing of beauty in the PM. Then on to our guide’s favorite temple for which we had to dress appropriately. When Fred saw how charming he looked in this outfit, (or so he thought,) it was difficult to restrain him from becoming a Hindu on the spot.

Beauty and the Beasts in Bali



In anyone jumped to a foolish rash conclusion, we hasten to point out that the beasts being talked about are those on the beautiful wood carving.

Monkey farm in Bali




We were impressed with the monkey reading the paper, but when we discussed it with her afterwards, we found she was strongly prejudiced with a Republican point of view. So we went to the others and hoped to find a good democrat, but all they wanted to do was eat eat and laze around rather being involved with politics.

A last look at Thailand before we leave tomorrow with 3 pictures:.

Two charming Muslim girls from Malaysia with whom we shared an oxcart, a charming elephant who shared her girth with us, and a charming sign from a Buddhist temple that shares a universal sentiment.
