Ferry Crossings to Tsim Sha Tsui

Approximately 15-20 minutes from Kowloon, a place-satisfied complacency for shopping

If you are in this place, be prepared to go bankrupt, the temptation for shopping, fashion products, electronic goods, guaranteed expensive, all offered with great fanfare, but fun.


The view from the ferry crossing, look at the flickering lights charm ads, and skyscraper buildings.


Take time to stroll along the Tsim Sha Tsui Promenade, looking across to Hong Kong Island.

The souvenir shops

It feels back to the past.

They seriously play music, people kept passing by, but each verse sung the song continues.

Fondation Louis Vuitton

The new place to visit in Paris

Perhaps you have some time to this city, this time a new place worth considering.

Fondation Louis Vuitton, this is not about fashion, boutique or the like, so I see a label on a building with a modern feel while offering superb works of contemporary art.

Pump Oil in California

A trip around the residential houses in the area of Los Angeles

That's what happened a day of fun, I passed settlements, and something caught my eye, a nod pump (sucker rod pump) which serves as a tool to raise the oil to the surface of the ground.

The story of the petroleum is always interesting, this equipment has been used in the US since World War II as a means of lifting the liquid.


Despite oil prices are down, it's time to stop drained earth, and towards the more advanced fuels.
