Hello From Hong Kong!




Hello from Hong Kong! The last few days I have been busy crisscrossing this wonderful city. I have been trying to orient myself and dive into the pace. So far all is well, with the exception of my establishing a sleep schedule. I frequently go through bouts of insomnia, however I prefer that it doesn't rear its' ugly head when I have meetings to be alert and prepared for. Oh well. 

I have been soaking up the warmer weather  and enjoying every minute of it. I think every New Yorker has been feeling like spring was never going to come! Being in a warmer clime has me starting to plan my spring wardrobe. I will do a spring wardrobe post soon. It feels good to break out my trench coats, stripey shirts ballerina flats and cropped trousers. 

Here are a few pictures are Hong Kong so far. A photographer friend recommended this camera and I had no time to learn how to use it before my trip, so I'm winging it.

  3. Great photos. I just love the serenity of these gardens. Can't wait to visit Brooklyn Botanical Gardens this spring for the first time. I know their Japanese garden is not going to look anything like this, but at least Hanami is on!

    Have a great weekend!

  4. Thanks Katz NYC. The gardens were such a peaceful respite from busy Hong Kong. So many natural parks, gardens and beaches to enjoy.

    You will love the Brooklyn Botanical Gardens. They're beautiful and a lovely escape from the city.

    Have a wonderful weekend!
