The Mathomas goes to China

At 21, Matthew Cianfrani, aka, The Mathomas, found himself amongst a myriad of lost souls and travel weary dreamers queued up at a disorganized and unpredictable boarding gate. The boarding pass in his hand read Departure-JFK, Arrival-Hong Kong....but where his journey was really going to take him....no one could know...

French tourists hide from the rain at the Peak's viewing pagoda. I thought it was refreshing myself.

Hong Kong skyline from the peak, though its monsoon season, so you have to make allowances for the fog.

Hong Kong Fuie XV

So then I hopped on the Peak Tram at the bottom to reach the top. Its actually pretty scary because you are sitting at an almost 90 degree angle (not really, more like 65) and you r life is in the ward of a single wire cable that supports two trams full of people. But the view is well worth it.
