Here’s a nice video I captured of the city skyline during the magic hour today. I’ll be posting more exciting locations soon.

Coming Soon – Drone Videos
A few weeks ago I bought a DJI Mavic Air 2…. It seemed reasonable compared to my Canon (SLR now mirrorless) camera. I’ve completed the first step in using the drone for ‘commercial purposes’ – such as posting videos on my website, Facebook page, or Instagram… A passing score is 70% (that’s the same for…

2020 Singapore to Hong Kong Cruise – Day 18 [Hong Kong, China to Houston]
This morning I woke up early and checked out of the hotel shortly before 6:00 AM. My flight is at 9:05 AM – so under normal circumstances I would generally be at the airport by then. I took a quick taxi to the Kowloon airport station (45 Hong Kong Dollars). The Cathay Pacific check in…
2020 Singapore to Hong Kong Cruise – Day 17 [Hong Kong, China ]
This morning I attempted to wake up early. I went to breakfast and took a few pictures of the Victoria harbor before attending the lion dance at the hotel at 10:00 AM. The show was quite good, but was more a party for the hotel managers and workers. I was still glad to see the…
2020 Singapore to Hong Kong Cruise – Day 16 [Hong Kong, China – Day 13 and disembarkation of cruise]
This morning I had a quick breakfast in the buffet and disembarked the ship. I took a taxi to the hotel for only 100 HKD. I decided to stay at the Sheraton in Kowloon as I was upgraded to a large 800 sq ft harbor view room. The view from the hotel was so nice…
2020 Singapore to Hong Kong Cruise – Day 15 [Hong Kong, China – Day 12 of cruise]
This morning the ship arrived at 7:00 AM. It was dark, so I didn’t bother setting up the timelapse. Since the museum I wanted to go to didn’t open until 10 AM I rested a while before going out. The weather was quite foggy and dismal as well. One of the malls organized a free…
2020 Singapore to Hong Kong Cruise – Day 14 [Sea Day – Day 11 of cruise]
Today was an easy day. I had breakfast in the main dining room. I went to the origami class today and made a samari hat… Though it was a bit too small for me. I had lunch in the main dining room with a bunch of the other solo travelers. I visited the bridge viewing…
2020 Singapore to Hong Kong Cruise – Day 13 [Ha Long Bay, Vietnam – Day 10 of cruise]
This morning I woke up early to set up the time lapse videos of the sail in to Ha Long Bay. I set up the new GoPro on the starboard side and the old one on the port side. The scenery was quite amazing. The visibility isn’t wonderful, but I guess that adds character to…
2020 Singapore to Hong Kong Cruise – Day 12 [Chan May, Vietnam – Day 9 of cruise]
This morning the ship arrived in Chan May. I was a bit disappointed how small and desolate the area was. I packed my bag of laundry. Because I’m Platinum I don’t have to pay the $19.95 I had a tour from the ship to the Imperial City of Hue. The bus ride was over an…
2020 Singapore to Hong Kong Cruise – Day 11 [Nha Trang, Vietnam – Day 8 of cruise]
Today was the only tendered port of the cruise. The ship was scheduled to arrive at 9:00 AM. I had scheduled a private tour through Viator that was to start at 9:00 AM. I set up my GoPro for a timelapse video as entering the harbor was quite scenic. The ship anchored very near to…
