The final leg of our tour was the flight from Chengdu to Hong Kong. Hong Kong proved to be a much different place that we had experienced furing the previous 17 days. In much of the city, one could have been in any western city, such as New York City! We spent a pleasant day hiking Lama Island from one end to the other.
