This is the beautiful Subic Bay Yacht Club. When the U.S. forces were here the place was jumping. Now it's a real challenge to keep the facility going.

All the triangles on our screen show AIS targets. This is a view inside Subic Bay. Most of these targets are at anchor (we were happy to find out!).

We don't know if there's enough freight traffic to keep the port busy. It didn't seem so while we were there.

These were the kinds of things we saw throughout the Philippines (left). They are related to fishing and sometimes they have a partner between which there's a net or a FAD (Fish Aggregating Device). Occasionally they're lit up at night, but more often they are NOT.

The trip into Hong Kong was one of our worst. Fortunately, we had an able crew in Joel. Here he's got his PFD and tether on. You see the red line crossing the entrance to the cockpit. We placed this after the vinyl clears were blown out in a near knock down.

The fishing boats are out early as we approach Hebe Harbor Yacht Club, northeast of Hong Kong.

There are numerous islands around the eastern shore.

This is the view as we approach our anchorage. Many tall apartment buildings are built all around Hong Kong. This is a city that is built vertically. Because of this it's not terribly difficult to have an efficient public transit.

I'm fairly sure this is the University district, but if it's not, well, I liked the photo and just wanted to share it with you.

When we got to the dock we took a good look at the damage one large wave and roll did to our vinyl clears!

We also lost our anchor during this trip. The anchor pin that we had made in Fiji pulled out and the forces were just too much for our connector. We knew it wasn't right when we left Fiji, but, of course, the locals said it would be, "Just fine!" I had tied the anchor on as a precaution, but that was not enough either.
