Day 1 - Tuesday 17th Jan
These first three were taken in the very early hours of Tuesday morning while travelling over the Tsing Ma Bridge:
The weather on the first few days wasn't so good, as you can see from this photo. I stayed in a hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui on the Kowloon side.
As every tourist would need to, we used the MTR many times over. This is Kowloon Tong Station on the Kwun Tong line:
After travelling to Mongkok I walked around Langham Place.
Even at night the fog was still around:

Day 2 - Walking around Hong Kong Island
Before travelling to the Hong Kong side, I walked around Tsim Sha Tsui for a bit. Loads of signs hanging everywhere, this is Ashley Road:
Then I took the Star Ferry across to Central. Here is part of the work being done for the new Star Ferry Pier:
