I just came back from Hong Kong. I woke up early this morning because of jet lag. I couldn't make myself focus on anything productive, so I decided to process my next set of photos, from an evening I spent walking around Temple Street. I had been told that Temple Street had all sorts of perils, at least in the evening, but at least to me it seemed pretty tame. It wasn't especially crowded, probably because it was a weeknight. It certainly was fun and interesting to walk around and see all of the restaurants, food stands, stalls, and shops. And there were just enough shady looking characters loitering around off the main drag to give it a little exotic appeal, without making it downright scary, like some of the neighborhoods I walked through in Lisbon last year.
Here is the gallery:

selection of my own favorites.
And a few of my real favorites for you to look at...
A fruit stand on a nearby street. Looks like a slow evening...

An outdoor seafood restaurant...

Another restaurant, not quite as busy...

A store with a funky looking car parked in front of it...

And I thought this was just sort of cool...
