Since airline travel didn't work too well today, I decided to go for a long stroll and take the Star Ferry again, and so the Star-Ferry-taking streak remains uninterrupted since first waking up in Hong Kong last Tuesday. Unless you are in the market for a tailor-made suit or have LOTS of strength left in your feet, I know of not much to do close to the Kowloon Star Ferry Pier. But during the Duk-Ling cruise I saw the statue of Bruce Lee and it wasn't too far according to memory, so off I went to see a long-deceased half-naked bronze Karate god.
After 5 minutes I realized that all week I hadn't seen any REAL tourists. Posing in director's chairs, trying to be a star themselves; I am missing a certain
je ne sais quoi that makes this tourist action fun. So I'll leave you with the pictures with two nice panoramas mixed in for good measure.

| Even chubby women in Mickey Mouse T-shirts become stars here |

| They're missing the boat! |
