Jumbo Floating Restaurant (2nd generation) [1976- ]

We made a sampan tour through Aberdeen harbor and passed Jumbo Floating Restaurant.

A few days later we returned to Jumbo for dinner. We were pretty short in HK$ (and had no credit card). So we calculated our meal and drinks - it was just enough. We were only afraid that we had to pay for the rice, then we wouldn't have enough for the bus. Fortunately, rice was included.

Power Station, Ap Lei Chau [1968-c.1989]

Aberdeen Harbour is seen with Ap Lei Chau power station, Lamma island is in the back.

Originally, I thought it was taken from the Peak Tower. Now I believe I took it from a bus near 84, Peak Road on the way to Deepp Water Bay and Aberdeen.

On August 9th , 1980 we left Hong Kong for Guangzhou and other places in China, but that's  a different story. I took photos at the railway station (I'm quite sure, but not 100%).
