Photo essay: My trip to Hong Kong

01-May-2010
 
When we got there it was cloudy. I could hardly see the peaks standing tall all around the airport. It was exciting. The girl helped us take our suitcases to our ride. I offered her ten US dollars, which is over 70 HK dollars. It’s a lot of money. She refused! The ride was smooth and the driver was speaking non stop about how he hates the Chinese government and that they live like Western people in Hong Kong. He said that China’s policy wouldn’t work. I asked what he meant by that, “Nothing, China is not democratic like Hong Kong”. I thought that I needed to learn more about Hong Kong ... more

just wanted to have a tad of fun with a virtual one since the prospect of seeing that happens in the real life is dim.

Sorry I started this! Poor Red wine wanted to enjoy a trip w/you

by obama on

only! I joked, and now roodarbasi, is becoming a tour of people!! C'mon now! These two have a lot in common and want to enjoy each other's company. Let them please! Don't ruin it for them! I know now abarmard would say, no way it owulld be nice. Because he is nice! If they want to do a tour, may be it should be a separate one the one they were going to have. Thank you for understanding! After all it is not a double date!

Fred is a nationalist

It's important for all of us to realize what it is that makes us satisfied. Our goals vary for different reasons. I do not see anything wrong with Fred's way of thinking since I realize what it is that he wants as an outlook. My disagreement with his thinking is not the issue here and should not be an issue at all.  

Happy Friday

Abarmard,

I actually like the idea of Iranian.com tour to Iran. We'll assign Fred to be the tour guide.


Abarmard

Why not

by Abarmard on

not a bad idea to setup iranian.com trip to Iran. Hopefully it comes a day that all Iranians feel comfortable visiting home. I am done for a while leaving home. I am tired. JJ is a superman, not many can follow his foot steps.

Thanks for visiting :)

Abarmand & Red wine, can i join you? TAA SEH NASHEH BAZI .....

by obama on

Of course I am just kidding! I was just wondering, did you go there after you returned from maylasia? if not, you just went to see hong kong only?

I love your photos, especially you manged to take photos where there were not many people and you took a little one of yourself in the mirror!

I understand you when you comment about vietnam and hong kong. No matter how long you have stayed out of iran, you still have the good humanatarian persian values. Well, you'd better! if a real persian from shiraz loses that, then we are all in trouble!

I think, JJ has become your role model! You have a lot more traveling to do before you ever catch up with him! kidding again!Merci!
