What lovely pics! Made me very nostalgic! I lived in Hong Kong from 1981 to 1983 and used to do the weather report on RTV and the continuity announcements. Just loved that place, it felt like home to me. Went back 20 years later and the magic had gone.

I can't believe they've got rid of the Junks!!! When I used to go across the harbour to Tsing Yi I remember being in the middle of a load of Junks, it was quite scary because they create quite a wake and we thought they were going to overturn us and of course they travel so close to you, but, it was incredible and I am so lucky to have seen it.

This is a tourist slide I bought from a street vendor in the early 80s. I would guess it was taken in the mid 70s.

Tom,
This is marvelous photo. Sad there HK now only has one junk kept as a tourist gimmick. Where and when was this photo taken?
