:( Your post makes me slightly sad. I left Hong Kong for the last time two weeks ago after seven years of living there.

I hope everything ends up okay... I don't think it will though...

Love the second photo.

China's about to lay the smackdown on Hong Kong. You should feel lucky that you got to see it while it was still semi-autonomous.

Sadly, it seems inevitable. I spoke to some locals there - they agreed that the autonomy they have was a large part of what made the city great. I hope it lasts.
