Wet start to Hong Kong

Posted under Races and Results

I’m glad the strong winds and heavy rain have eased today.  I got so wet yesterday while running around the Happy Valley Racecourse that I had to wring out the inner soles of my shoes!  Some taxi drivers refused to drive, and many shops stayed closed.  The shopping mall in Times Square is huge- 16 stories.  We’ll have lunch there today…I’m looking for the familiar, not the authentic local cuisine.  (I avoided the prime cut of jellyfish and the fried fish lips on the menu last night!)
