Hong Kong - The Final Leg

On Wednesday, we traveled from the boat yard to Hong Kong, taking a fast ferry across the mouth of the Pearl River from Zhuhai to Hong Kong Island. We took a taxi from the ferry terminal to our hotel, the Ramada Hotel. They upgraded our room to a mini-suite on the 28th floor with a lovely harbor view.
