Hong Kong Street Market
This is the last post of photos from our trip.
On the last day of our trip we were able to go to the street market late in the afternoon. This market is so much fun, good shopping and lots to see. The market is just up the street and around the corner. This is where the taxi left us.
Looking into the market. There are hundreds of booths.
This booth specialized in jeans. We chatted with this gal for a while. Her name is Lang Lang.

This market is sensory overload. There is so much to see and the vendors all try to catch your attention. So much fun!
There is food everywhere too - and it’s not boring!
Anyone for a pig snout?
This looks a little better.
But I’m not so sure about this. What in the world?
And yes, that yellow stuff was really that bright. I’m not sure what it was, but I think those roundish brown things are eggs?
Then it started to get dark out.
And the food took a turn for the worst.
See for yourself.
Yes, those huge shrimps were alive - and moving around.
(Breathe deep) Just be glad you weren’t there in person to see them in full live action.
Look away.
Look back at the vendors in the non-food booths.
Take a rest from those pictures above.
You can pick your own and they’ll cook it for you right there.
See all that steam on the glass? Hong Kong is very steamy and hot.
And full of smells and sounds unlike anywhere I’ve seen!
There are places for you to sit down and enjoy your delicious food.
And one final parting view of the city at night…until we meet again Hong Kong!
