I thought it was about time I talked about life in Hong Kong. It is hard to believe we have been here for 10 months now, it has gone so quickly. We are still loving this adventure.
We live in an apartment. It is much smaller than our house in Melbourne, but we have adjusted. It gave me a good excuse to de-clutter, and I did, but I am sure I could cull more "things". It is a three bedroom apartment, with a combined living/dining room, a very small kitchen and two bathrooms. Having two bathrooms makes such a huge difference. There is a shower in one, a bath in the other, and each bathroom has a toilet. There is no laundry. This apartment has a balcony too (our first apartment did not), oh how I love our balcony. If the weather is not too hot or cold, the girls play outside on their scooters or take some toys out and play on a picnic rug.
There are many water features and fountains in our apartment complex. Water is a symbol of wealth and prosperity in feng shui. I have noticed that most of the apartments in our area of Hong Kong have one or more water features.
There is one I walk past every day, many times. It has been windy this week, and some pretty things have landed in the water, waiting for me to photograph them.
This is what we have found this week.
Lonely pink flowers floating in the rippling water.
Water features on very windy days are interesting to watch if you are a two year old (I was holding her tight)
Pink flowers can be hitchhikers on bark boats.
Hi, there is my reflection.
Yes, I am still addicted to instagram. You can see my images here, or in instagram, my user-name is raspberry rainbow. Pop in and say hi if I have not found you yet.
Have a great day. Cat
