Humid Hong Kong

IFC2 building. An amazing skyscraper next to HK harbour.
View during harbour cruise, we were lucky enough to witness the nightly 'Symphony of Light' show which is conducted using the lights on the buildings as well as laser lights atop the buildings, all set to music. Didn't rate the music but the light show was fabulous.The imposing IFC2 building here again, front right of the picture. Looking at the skyline of HK island from the Kowloon side.
Insence coils burning inside the Man Ho Temple. This temple is in a very busy modern street of HK island. The temple itself was over 150 yrs old.
Mitchell loved London. It seemed to be the city of fancy cars. He took dozens of photos of cars that one day he dreams of owning.
Me inside one of the London Eye pods. Lots of glass and lots of seeing through to the ground way down below. Good views over the city to be had from up here. London was very flat.
The houses of Parliament and Big Ben from the Eye.
The tower bridge. We were lucky enough to see it at one of its rare openings. It now opens on average, 40 times per month compared to an average of 400 per month only 8 - 10 yrs ago.
