Saturday was an action packed errand-day: we began in Mongkok to check out barstools for our dining area, then headed to the flower market, which was abustle, then shopped the sports and Adidas/Reebok outlets in Hung Hom. The barstools turned out to be shockingly expensive and the outlets were disappointing. Of all of our errands, we only succeeded at the flower market. But it was such a smashing success that it made standing on our feet for 7 hours scurrying all over Hong Kong worth it! Here is our new acquisition. It stands just a shade taller than Michael. Isn't it beautiful?
We also picked up some healthy flowering plants that we have added to our windowsill - more pictures of that will come once we have made the area more aesthetically pleasing.
Although only about two streets long, the flower market contains a lot of stores, selling anything and everything from bonsai to cactus to fresh cut flowers to fruit trees. More items than I expected were outdoor plants. Some snaps below.
