let's get natural

whoa, think i shot too much pictures since last time, it's hard to pick out the best ones, but let's try.



after writing my last blog entry, i went to the HK Zoological and Botanical Gardens, where you don't have to pay anything and can nevertheless watch everything, strange plants and rare animals like a jaguar (who just came out of his hideout burpung at the people and then leaving again) some apes (and an extremly fat orang utan, so fat, i don't believe he has moved for ages)and other....ummm....creatures;



then I went to the Hong Kong Park, also a quite big Park whith a huge place for rare Birds with a little lake with many turtles taking a sunbath and a little tower where you can go up to get a nice vew over a part of the city.



At night, I spent a visit to the temple street night market;
as the name says, it's a street market that only takes place at night (and, yes, it's placed in temple street...)
no doubt, i'll return to this place sometime, because you can buy clothes very cheap and generally it's a quite nice little market;
but at that time, the only thing i really needed was a bottle opener, and fortunatly it wasn't too hard to find one there (nowhere else in HK i found one)
Afterwards I went through the contiguous streets, I came to a Place full of junkies and then a street full of small bands performing on the street followed by dozens of fortunetellers.



The next day, i went to Soho, a district on HK Island which is located on a strong incclivity, so you need to go many many stairs to get up there; that's why they built the longest escalator in the world to get up (more precisley it's an extreme big sequence of escalators) and it took me about half an hour till i reached the top where i didn't know what to do there, so i went to the peak tram station, that wasn't too far away.



The Peak is one of the Highest Places in Hong Kong where you can get a view over the whole city, quite beautiful but unfortunatly, the Peak Tower is getting renovated and the workers just made an extremly awful noise so I didn't stay too long, but I'll return there soon to make better pictures.



Then I went back through Wan Chai, my favorite district till now and came to the Hong Kong Convention Center, like most builings in HK, i'ts very huge but there wasn't any interesting exhibition so i took a look at the HK Designgallery where i didn't see anything really exiting (exept this cat on the pic)
so I left.


I just bought my new digital camera, Canon Eos 350D, wonderful thing, so in the upcoming blog entries, the quality of the pics will be much better I hope

at last i got some pics left:
