No, I was born and raised in Arizona, just went to Hong Kong for work. I really liked it there. I know the really nice hotel I stayed at was about $90 a night and two of us could eat dinner for about $15 total, but I didn't really get to see prices on much else. 500mL cans of beer were about $1.50 at 7-11, not too much different from here and they told me cigarettes were about $5 a pack.

haha my parents are from HK too and i just showed these pix and they were astounded. HK changed so damn much after these years...

I've never been there before, but there was construction everywhere, so I can sure see how it would be changing a lot.

Thanks Chad, the quality isn't up there with yours, but at least it's something different to look at.
