Slightly frustrating day which started brightly with a visit to the peak, via the tram, for some fine views over Hong Kong. We then tried to visit the Big Buddha on Lantau island but the cable car was closed in anticipation of the typhoon. Same story with the star ferry at Kowloon and the light show is cancelled. On a positive note, Cath gets concessionary fares everywhere and is treated with great respect by the vast numbers of young people in Hong Kong. One young man gave her his seat on the MTR. However she is disappointed that no one has asked her to prove her age yet!
Currently waiting to find out if we are stranded temporarily in Hong Kong but virgin airways in HK don't work Sundays!!! In meantime I have posted info on the impending storm.
