HK 4/21

OK so my cousin took me around at least like 6 districts... and every district had a mall which conveniently connects to the subway LOL. So in the hot summer, people just walk out of the subway station and usually one of the entrances leads in to a mall. Which is amazing so you can go shopping and hardly have to step outside!
alright so anyways. Its not too hot, just really humid. like 80def F but like 90% humidity. so the air is pretty damn thick.

anyways on to the pics... i'd tell you where each and every one was but i was totally lost myself.
This is a very popular fast food restaurant in HK, Cafe De Coral??? but its random chinese breakfast foods.

this is the quarter area between my cousin's flat and the other lying apartments. pretty much multiple complexes.

 Toyota Crowns for taxis

 some business building we just walked in to.

 the mall that closely connects to my cousin's flat has an ice rink inside. Also I can't stress enough, how big every mall is in this city, and HOW MANY THERE ARE... its mind blowing.

 courtesy umbrella bags.

 another different mall. mostly full of clothing stores.

 jumped in to a taxi headed to Central... passed by a huge coach store

 kinda hipsterish store... where you have no idea what they sell??? kinda like urban outfitters... where there is clothing..... and furniture???

 Street food across that people wait in line for... and you eat outside. quite charming.

 The spot where my cousin and I ate. Known for their Curry beef tendon stew... it was amazing..

 headed to the back and walked up stairs to the other dining area hahaha. definitely quite charming.

 mmmmmmmmmmmmmm all of this was like 5$ lol and MILK TEA!!!

 walking around central... spotted a levin? 101? 111?

 kewl! on fakie TEs haha

 hello....

 multiple stores on the same street that sell the same kinda stuff. this one.... well sold a bunch of LEDs haha

i dont remember what district this was.. but they sold a gang of different stuff.

found myself a car store... seriously just a store full of fakie chinese accessories

 stickers/badges yo!

 LED bulbs.

 over view of the store.

 MORE LEDS! seriously these street booths looked like strip clubs.

 street view

 inside a fancy mall... is a photog's haven. again, multiple stores along the same aisle selling the same stuff hahha

 takoyaki!

 car promotion display.

 inside another different fancy mall.

 movie promotion in HK... usually are not just posters HAHA

This is Bridal Shop advertising. She just stands there in a wedding dress leaning up on the Benz and poses and looks pretty all day in front of the shop. HAHA

 hai.

Took a closer look and I spotted some Kranze!

 it was on this thing HAHAHA...
there is seriously too many stepwagons/wagons/etc etc cars in HK...

 Since we don't have most of them state side... its hard for me to recognize what is what.... Usually the ones I do recognize are Odysseys, vellfires, and Hiaces (which are literally used for EVERYTHING)

FERIO!!! SiR too.. and legit Mugens haha.

Kinda like Dekotora? im surprise aero even exists for this thing HAHA awesome.

ok till tomorrow! or well today.

 rides awaiting

 I was sad while passing over tokyo. I wish it stopped by there haha =\

Made it to my cousins house around 10pm, This is the view looking out from the living room where I sleep. I sure miss the city sounds (pretty much cars and trucks passing by waking me up in the morning is surely a different experience.)

Some things never change....

while some things always do...

euro panel

test fit.. and i caved in and walked away with one (heavily discounted) thanks to Jeff @ slick auto

Weekend driver? why not.

Super Street.

Thank you to all the supports and people that have helped out.

Well... Shit...................

"From this distant vantage point, the Earth might not seem of any particular interest. But for us, it's different. Look again at that dot. That's here, that's home, that's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there – on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds.

Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves.

The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand.

It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known."
