Train Ride to Hong Kong!
Okay, let me just start out by saying that I took a total of 141 pictures on my 2-day trip to Hong Kong. Thank goodness for digital cameras! I'm trying to group the pictures into different categories so they aren't overwhelming - here's the first shot.
Ryan and I bought two train tickets from Guangzhou to Hong Kong. We paid for first class seats. So of course, I took a picture of the train car. :) It felt a lot like an airplane. In fact, I kept calling the train station 'the airport' by mistake. We waited in line, went through customs, inspections, and had to board 20 minutes early. I expected something a little more like a subway station, but this train was a bit different.
We had duty free shopping, newspapers, a beverage service and optional meals. Traveling in style! The view out the window was interesting, too. It was nice to get away from the crowded city and see the countryside. Unfortunately I can't explain what you're looking at in the photos... but even the countryside looks different somehow.
More pictures to come... of the city next!
