Day 5: Factory Visits + Fantastic Food (again) Kelly VG

Ever heard the phrase a picture is worth a thousand words?  That definitely holds true for our travels today... and pictures only tell HALF the story.

Today we visited a high-end cashmere sweater factory in Hong Kong that was established less than 1 yr ago, called Love + Hope.  They pride themselves in being able to produce high-end clothing using cutting edge technology (like RFID tracking on individual garments), providing superior working conditions to factory employees, and maintaining their claim to fame of "100% produced in Hong Kong."  They've already doubled in size since inception.  Talk about a successful business model!

We ended the night with a fantastic dinner at the Jumbo Seafood floating restaurant in Hong Kong.  We literally got to go see the fish swimming before enjoying them for dinner!  The pic above was one of TEN courses, yes TEN, that was part of the traditional Chinese Dim Sum dinner.

We also found lots of goodies at our impromptu stop at the Carrefour grocery store in Shenzhen yesterday... including this frozen barracuda-looking fish with no packaging whatsoever.
