Margie had to have tea at the old Peninsula Hotel so here we are. It is on the tip of the Kowloon peninsula and is a grand hotel in the Olympic style. Traditional tea consists of superb scones, small tea sandwiches, and small deserts plus tea. We had a little champagne with it as you can see. It is served in the lobby so we could watch all of these people coming and going, many with fancy shopping bags full of clothes, etc. The mainland China people come here to do their fancy shopping from stores with all of the world wide fancy brands. Prices are not cheap. Some people in China have money. We waited 30 minutes in line to get a table for tea. It is a very popular event. Tuned out to be our dinner as we retired to our hotel about 6:30 went to the executive lounge for some drinks and decided to go to bed. Still catching up with the jet lag.
