Red tape on the lobby doors represents a typhoon warning before witnessing any broadcasts or stepping outside to feel the powerful wind.

Nets cover the lampposts on the harbor front hotel when weather warrants the precaution.

Senior missionaries head to the northern territories for flu shots.

The Hong Kong Heritage Museum enjoys this splendid location.

The Elegant tea cup display provides a perfect photo op.  My birthday month is honored with the  cymbidium plant.  Each of the twelve china cups was beautifully designed.  This display was one of my favorites. 

Rick gives Bruce Lee’s pose a try.  Actually, he looks great in this position.  We had no idea this martial arts expert was such an icon in Hong Kong.  His legend continues to outlive his short life.

We enjoyed these “misting” butterflies.

      Autumn festival at North Point – what a beautiful scene of lavender flowers

          Children celebrating on the square, playing with light sticks and other glowing attractions

               Mid-Autumn festival full moon – notice the glowing orb this woman holds on a stick.

The John Denver Tree – this major attraction stands as a landmark in downtown Wan Chai, near the Church Office Building.

      Newbies!!  Sister McAllister joins me along with Elder and Sister Burke at the John Denver tree.

The Cantonese speaking employees sing for my surprise birthday event.  The song requires lots of hand clapping and singing aloud.  I felt extremely honored.

                      Weekly groceries – Thankfully, $598 HK dollars is closer to $75 US dollars.
