Indigo Child

Hong Kong is strange. I noticed they have a lot of art exhibits that usually would go in museums or galleries in other countries end up in shopping malls or office complexes here. I ran into this Carrie Chau exhibition while shopping in Times Square:

Camera Crazy

ER Outside

I went to the hospital to visit my uncle, who unfortunately came down with pneumonia on Christmas day, and on my way out, I noticed a bunch of people waiting outside. I asked my aunt why they were waiting outside, and she said they were waiting for treatment in the ER! They actually have outdoor waiting rooms in the Philippines!

Babies!

Here Comes the Cottontail

Clayton alerted me of Roxy Cottontail's visit to Hong Kong to dj at this event. While I didn't make it to her gig (too pooped!), we met up over the next two days and hung out, ate, partied and shopped. It was nice having some New York flavor in Hong Kong for the weekend!

Thanksgiving in Hong Kong

Thanksgiving was a hectic day. The Mumbai bombings were still fresh and I had to interview this fashion designer, which turned out to be very complicated! Luckily, we got out of work at a decent hour and had dinner at Magnolia, which a is a cajun private kitchen run by an American chef.

The peas were amazing, and I usually hate peas!

The yams had some kind of orange flavoring...I usually don't like yams either!
