This picture was taken on a stormy day. Signal number 8 was still up when I left my hotel to get to Tsimshatsui. No storm was gonna dampen my plans for the day. Hehehe. Good thing when I arrived at the waterfront it was not as windy as it was the night before. I was also there when the storm was raging its wrath. I tried to take night pictures but even with a tripod, it was hopeless. The wind was just too strong. When i saw a part of a roof flying over the coffee shop where I was staying, that was when I feared the storm. I didn't heed the warnings that were everywhere about the storm. I just wondered why the malls were closed so early. But then, I still went my way. But when I saw the roof, I was definitely scared and decided to head back to my hotel. To my surprise, there were no more cars, buses or any transportation on the streets. Good thing, the MTR was still doing its usual route and I was able to go home. Even with the previous night's scare, that didn't deter me from visiting the waterfront again. The sky was still overcast but it was a beautiful day nonetheless. By lunchtime, the storm signal was lowered to 3 and I was able to go about my shopping for the rest of the afternoon. Definitely one of the memorable parts of my trip :)
