I am now arrived in Hong Kong and an official resident! Here are a few street scenes from near my new place in Happy Valley, which is near the horse racing track originally set up by the British over 100 years ago. Even today, Hong Kong will be the site of the Olympic Equestrian events due to its long association with all things relating to horses. Notice the campaign posters for the Legco elections next month below the Peking Duck (or whatever it is that this shop sells!)
Less than a 10 minute walk from my place is the horse track itself. Clearly visible from a park nearby.
And these apartments look down on the green horse track, and can view the races every Wednesday from their rooms!
And then nearby is a pub called the Stable. I understand that it just opened. But certainly very comfortable and just what a new resident to Hong Kong needs!
