On another transportation note: I like trams -- but tend to avoid them on hot summer days... and rainy occasions too! ;bYTSLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930487923185001591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289278000277019122.post-35311637457186025252012-07-14T10:37:22.946+08:002012-07-14T10:37:22.946+08:00It's easy to romanticize and get nostaligic ov...It's easy to romanticize and get nostaligic over things when you don't live there.

In any case, yeah, I think visitors tend to prefer to move around Hong Kong on the MTR (as well as by taxi and on foot) then the bus -- but really, once you get used to it, it's really pretty easy. :)<br /><br />Hi baroness radon --<br /><br />It's YTSLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09930487923185001591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3289278000277019122.post-89728525699340675162012-07-14T07:13:03.543+08:002012-07-14T07:13:03.543+08:00I confirmed with my husband that these were indeed...I confirmed with my husband that these were indeed the buses we routinely took, especially from Central to Stanley. They were great fun.
