NOV 22, 14 .. THE HONG KONG STAR FERRIES ..


There are always 'new' folks joining us here who may have not seen the Star Ferries before!

The Star Ferries DOMINATE HONG KONG FOR ME!  I absolutely love them.  Riding them from Kowloon Tsim ShaTsui across Victoria Harbor to Hong Kong Central or to Hong Kong Wan Chai has to rank at the very top (along with eating Singapore Rice Noodles!) of my favorite things to do when I am here visiting Hong Kong. 

Here we go .. HONG KONG STAR FERRIES .. nice view across Victoria Harbor at the Hong Kong Sky Line !
Here is a STAR FERRY moored and loading passengers at the Central Terminal ..
Where the boys are .. the girls are .. after all .. to have more STAR FERRIES .. you have to have mating-pairs !
SHE IS .. the APPLE OF A LOT OF STAR FERRY eyes ! .. and .. SHE KNOWS IT ! ..
Below is a nice side view profile of a STAR FERRY crossing Victoria Harbor ..
Here is a view of the HONG-KONG-ISLAND CENTRAL-STAR-FERRY-TERMINAL ..
And below .. on the other side of Victoria Harbor .. is a view of the KOWLOON STAR FERRY TERMINAL .. IF you look straight ahead slightly to the left .. the shorter building in the foreground .. you can see my YMCA building .. I am VERY close to the STAR FERRY TERMINAL in Kowloon !
OH YES .. there are OTHER FERRIES out on Victoria Harbor ! .. the below ferry goes to LAMMA ISLAND ..
This ferry goes to Lantau Island I believe ..
And this one in the photo below goes to .. I haven't a clue .. but it sure is a LARGE FERRY isn't it?  I think .. and do NOT quote me on this .. but I think I heard one of the smaller Star Ferries say to another .. "Well .. there goes the BIG DOG ! " ..
OH YES .. OH YES .. OH YES .. there are many MANY other sea-going craft out on Victoria Harbor .. just look at this 'classic' ..
AND .. the always and the ever-present .. 'Cruise Ships' .. I mean they come and they go ..
These ships are just .. State-of-the-Art beautiful !
Below are several shots as you walk into the Kowloon Star Ferry Terminal ..
Directions ..
How lucky .. how very VERY FORTUNATE I AM THAT I AM HERE IN HONG KONG once again ..

 The below photos were taken during one crossing of the Star Ferry.

I think they pretty well speak-for-themselves.


How many times (I wonder to myself) have I said that I never .. as in NEVER EVER .. tire of the beauty of Hong Kong!


I never tire of seeing the cruise ships docked here in Kowloon!

The next two photos look back at Kowloon.  Notice the above Cruise Liner in the lower left corner of the below photo.

How could anyone ever tire of this beauty!

A Star Ferry heading from Kowloon across Victoria Harbor to Hong Kong's Wan Chai terminal.

Patti and I are so very fortunate to be here visiting the BEAUTIFUL Hong Kong area!

The two photos immediately below show the view up Victoria Harbor.  Looking at the above photo .. you turn to the left and see the below views.



In the above photo .. a photo I shot primarily of the Star Ferry .. the magnificent Hong Kong Convention Center is behind the Star Ferry and invisible in the above photo.

I then snapped the below photo after the Star Ferry passed to our left and out of our view.


Hong Kong's Central Star Ferry Terminal is visible in the lower right of the below photo.  Note also the new Ferris Wheel now under construction.

A night time photo of the Ferris Wheel.

Notice the Ferris Wheel behind Hong Kong's Central Star Ferry Terminal .. our ride across Victoria Harbor is almost finished.


Beauty?  I rest my case!

 With So Much Joy We Are Like Two Giddy Teenagers ! 

 Cap and Patti ..

    The ferries are wonderful. The cruise ships are delightful. The endless and unbelievable skyscraping buildings are a joy to behold. I can see why you and Patti are like giddy teenagers.

    I'm sorry I didn't see these posts until this much later date. I don't know how I missed them.
