The stopover - to break up the trip (it's a long way from NZ to Europe...), we decided to stop in Hong Kong for a couple of days. Well, I say Hong Kong, but we actually stayed in Macau as one of the guys has a brother who lives there!
Great places to stopover and also great to have a tour guide.
Not sure I need to go back, maybe to see Hong Kong in the sunlight / more night shots. Not Macau though. Once was enough.
Here's a few shots...
MACAU;
Oh, and yep, I had a good win in the casino! ;-)
Quite a contrasting place with the casino's and a lot of wealth. Until you head to old Macau and it's clearly a lot poorer.
That's also China just across the river.
Full disclosure on the last photo... although the image is mine, the idea & location are not. It was actually a winning photo from a National Geographic comp. I was stoked to be able to find the location and re-create the photo though!
HONG KONG;
No tripod made things a little tricky... it had been checked in with my luggage (awesome to be able to check in at the train station early in the day prior to a night flight!).
