Been a bit quiet recently as I was away in New Zealand for a fortnight. Anyone who’s been will be able to tell you that it’s a stunningly beautiful country. I had a great time and it was a bit of a shock to come back to Hong Kong. It was a lovely sunny day with a clear blue sky when I left Auckland, and it was a sunny day with a clear blue sky when I arrived back at Chek Lap Kok. But the Hong Kong “blue” sky was marred by a brown pall of pollution which we were looking down on as the plane descended. To make matters worse, the denuded Hong Kong hills contrasted with the lush forets I’d been looking at for the previous 2 weeks. I’ve never been quite so depressed returning to Hong Kong.
Anyway I’ll write some updates on NZ over the next couple of weeks. I had a great time and even managed to get a couple of dives in on the Poor Knights.
