The Star Ferry

My mom asked for some pictures of the Star Ferry, so here they are! Yesterday, we went to Mong Kok to get Calvin fitted for some suits (3 nice suits for about $250 USD!). There are a few ways you can get there from the island, where we are. You can take a bus or the MTR from Central, or you can take a ferry across the harbor, then take a bus. We decided on the ferry so I could get some good pictures, with the added bonus that the ferry is just fun (and another added bonus, it is cheap!).

Here is the pier where you pay your $2 to sit on the bottom deck, or $2.50 to sit on the top (that's in HKD! approximately $1 USD = $7.6 HKD).

Each ferry has it's own name, like the Northern Star, Twinkling Star, etc.

Camden liked watching the sailors and paid attention so he could do the job someday :) They wear these sailor uniforms that have stars on the front. The seats on the ferry are also decorated with stars.

The views from the star ferry are amazing! You can see the museums, art, science, and space, in the background on the left.

Here is a video when we were on our way home of the great view of Central across the harbor. The lights on the buildings were just coming on!
