Paulo calls and checks out the situation. Looks like the heavy rain delayed the departure flight of: Hu Jintao (胡錦濤), after participating in the Reunification Anniversary Celebrations.
15 min hold up and we make it to Fu Yong ferry.
Arrived in Kowloon at 3:30 pm. Much to my surprise immigration/customs were quite. Once out in the streets is was a different picture ... Seemed that most of the population were converging on the harbour front .. in anticipation of the firework show, scheduled for 8:00pm.
Like a salmon swimming upstream I found TST MRT station and at 4:00pm I was in my hotel in Wanchai, on KH island. On Queensway road, we had a steady stream of marchers; demonstrating, protesting, advertising, making statements, etc, etc .. all having a good time:
