Jacquie And Jason's Hong Kong Wedding
Before you holler FINALLY !!!, please remember these pages are about 200 pictures selected from over 1200 pictures. I found it very difficult to eliminate some pictures during the process, not because I am a fantastic photographer, but due to the sheer number of images. I have captioned most of the images where I could remember the details. To see the caption, place your mouse over the image and the ALT text (work in process) will appear. Click on the small image and a new browser window will open. The links below will open up a new browser window so you can have this page in the background. I have grouped the images into five (5) sections. Simply click on one of the links below to begin the journey. You will find this site relatively plain, without fancy graphics and exploding menus. But it will navigate fast even on slow Internet connections. If you are willing to pay for it, I can jazz it up a bunch.

NYC
Before Leaving

Hong
Kong First Arrival We discover a Shopping Mall that is a city block long, McDonalds, Starbucks, and and even a Snoopy store. I discovered Snoopy is a really popular item in Hong Kong.. Of course, a visit to the Museum of Art was a necessary cultural opportunity. |
Hong
Kong Bus
Tours There is so much to see, there is no way you can see it without help. Having been under British rule for many years, most Hong Kong residents speak English. Printed menus were a different story. If the menu was all Chinese, it was a good idea to have a translator with you. Jacquie was our angel of mercy. Our trip was for only a week, so to see the most touristy areas in the shortest time, we took bus tours and LOTS of pictures. The one thing that amazed me was the cleanliness of the city, including areas on other islands. Their subway system looks like it just opened yesterday. |
HK
Wedding
Dinner Day The Chinese do not have weddings like we do. Their tradition is to have a huge 12-course dinner, where each course item represents something like good fortune or happy children. A tradition we all share is taking pictures of the bride and groom with family members and friends. In Hong Kong, I think this meant half of the city! |
NYC
Again The flight back to NYC seemed twice as long. One day of layover and it is off to our homes. Jet Blue and Super Savers rule! |
