The next day, after lunch we went to see a Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture Demonstration. Here we had yet another opportunity to purchase local medicine for those ailments that still plagued our tour group. After dinner we had a late flight to Hong Kong.

Hong Kong is a truly amazing city. It is older but much more western than mainland China. The skyscrapers will give you vertigo. The tallest building in China is here – 81 stories. They are building one now that will be taller still. The cost of living here is extremely high. An apartment in a high rise building can cost as much as $20,000 US Dollars a month. We are told that most of the time companies pay this rent for their senior executives. WOW!
