Hong Kong, Day 2 (Sunday)
Jun. 19th, 2012 11:47 pmAmazingly enough, I had almost no big time jet lag issues, despite Hong Kong being exactly 12 hours ahead of NYC. Perhaps it was my almost total lack of sleep for two previous days or the melatonin regimen suggested by the my friend
nafania (thanks for that), but ultimately the major headache I expected (like the one I had in Australia 10 years ago) did not materialize. A bit of a hum I did have subsided in late afternoon, and that was pretty much it -- a major adjustment in just 24 hours. This is not to say I am not jet lagged -- I do crash around 9-10pm and wake up at 6am (and those who know me will attest to this being very unnatural for me). However, I am active during the day with no ill effects and I sleep during the night. What else can one ask for.
The weather, however, does not let up. It rains on and off pretty much the entire day.One can, however, time a quick walk so that you don't get too soaked. I grabbed my camera, stuck a 16-35 VR on it and went out during just such a window. Walked around Wan Chai, Convention Center, Victoria Park, Causeway Bay. Shot a bunch of pix, will post later when I have upload capabilities.
