we actually took a solid hour before finding it... I would say it was definitely not easy P.S. its my second attempt ??
Found with Ruby. GPS is off but the hint is real clear to locate GZ. Geo sense on fire as I grabbed the cache on my first touch. TFTC
Can't find it for some reason. I saw the vending machine, searched every bit around and underneath it but I guess I'm out of luck
Eva found it on a beautiful day with clear views. Follow the hint and your goesense rather than the GPS. Looking for more...
Took longer for this one than necessary. In the end it was an easy grab with the hint.
An easy find once we got our corners sorted. Unfortunately most of the stars are unknown to us.

Having left Isla at home while we came on holiday. Walking back to hotel and passing this one so a quick search and a scratch of the head and there it was. Unfortunately after this find the wife did insist on visiting shopping centre. An FP awarded for placing and maintaining these caches. TFTC
Passed by in the morning. Nice walk since no people. Quick grab but then it starts to rain .. ?? Tftc

Today I did a trip with the Star Ferry to visit the other Riverside and visit Bruce Lee ! Of course I took the Ferry, so I was able enjoy the stunning view from the water to the waterfront of Hong Kong and the Avenue of Stars. While visiting this Cache I was able to see it from the other side. The Cache was, after I read the hint, easy to find.
I like Hong Kong really much and will come back hopefully in the future.
Many thanks to kinglee for hiding this cache

Found it while wandering Kowloon today. It took us awhile to figure out what the term "drink station" meant, but once we figured that out it was in the first place we looked.
Our vacation began with a few days in beautiful Singapore, where we enjoyed visiting so many lovely attractions including the Marina District, the Botanic Gardens, Marina Bay Tower, Raffles Hotel, Sentosa Island, Chinatown, Fort Canning Park and much more. We ate delicious food and traveled flawlessly using the clean and efficient Singapore Mass Rapid Transit (SMRT) system.
From Singapore, we boarded the beautiful Norwegian Jade and cruised SE Asia for 12 wonderful nights.
We visited Thailand, where we toured Bangkok to visit Wat Phra Kaew, the Grand Palace, and the Wat Traimat. We had lunch near the Chao Phraya River and spent time wandering around Chinatown. We then spent a day in Pattaya, where we spent time at the beach, and shopped and toured the streets of the city.
Our next stop was Sihanoukville, Cambodia. We had been cautioned that the city might not meet our expectations, but we enjoyed our tour, seeing the Wat Krom pagoda, walking through the Phsar Leu Market, stopping at the Golden Lion monument, visiting the Wat Leu Pagoda and walking along the shores of New Beach. Later we took a taxi to Otres Beach to spend a short time in that part of the city. The traffic throughout the city was wild!
Our stops in Vietnam, over the next four days, included Ho Chi Minh City, Nha Trang, Hue and Hanoi. We saw so many amazing sites in each city and learned a lot about the history, culture and religious beliefs of many of the Vietnamese. We were wowed by the number of motorbikes in the country and the unique ways that people use them to transport themselves, their family members and their possessions and goods.
Our last stop was in Hong Kong. We spent one night in Hong Kong on the ship followed by two more nights at hotels. Since it was the Chinese New Year celebration and the parades and fireworks were cancelled by the government, the city was calmer than we anticipated. We were able to do so many things! We used the funicular to climb to the top of Victoria Peak, we rode the Star Ferry, we wandered around Hong Kong Island, we took a sampan tour of the floating village of Aberdeen, and spent time at Repulse Bay with its lovely beach. We had some interesting food during our time in Hong Kong, too!
Thanks to all of the cache owners for placing and maintaining geocaches for us to find during our trip. It was especially appreciated when we could combine sightseeing and geocaching, when caches were placed by tourist sights, since our time was limited and our main focus was on seeing and learning about each country.

Took me a little longer to make the grab with all th muggles. Luckily I have kids who look less suspicious going low. TFTC!

We were sat on the river front waiting for the laser show when I thought I could make good use of the waiting time and pick up this cache which was a mere 302 metres from where we sat.
When I got back Mrs Smash was overjoyed. "Oh, Piston!" she trilled. "I am entirely captivated by your geocaching prowess! Take me in your arms immediately!"
"Soz, Babes," I said. "Gotta write my log..."

We arrived in Hong Kong yesterday, while Mr 4ando headed into the office to get some work done, I was out on the streets of Hong Kong with a muggle friend. We were hitting the wet and dry markets, loved the activity of the wet markets, amazed watching how fast they pull out a fish, whack it, scale and gut it before tossing it back to the buyer! And the chickens, pick your live chicken that you want for dinner, gives a whole new perspective on fresh meat, love seeing how other places operate!
My muggle friend was keen to give this caching thing a crack and dear lord I created a monster, she was all over this! We caught trains, trams, ferries, buses and walked 30000 steps! We stopped for Dim Sum and egg custard tarts, fantastic coming with someone who has local knowledge and knows the best places to eat! Experienced some new dry foods that I am going to miss back home.
So many sights and we ended up picking up 10 caches during our day before we had to head back to meet the boys for dinner and copious amount of tequila to ease our tired feet!

Found during another business trip in Asia, from Hong Kong and Shenzhen, Beijing, Seoul and Tokyo together with starless.
No really many free time to play GC but the early mornings due to the jet lag, the lunch and dinner times and some special moments like this weekend allowed us to find some caches.
Some were on our TO DO list and others on our way.
This one was the first oneof this trip after landing from Europe, just in front of our hotel. We could see it from our room. A quick and easy found.
Thanks to all the owners to set up and maintain all those caches: they made our days.

Visited and found with Portokeil during a new short visit in town while here for some business review, all visited places were surprisingly very quiet and likely even more than usually.
We could see that one just down from our hotel

We enjoyed this promenade walk and it was made better for finding the cache. Very precise hint. SL. TFTC
While Mr went shopping, I took a geowalk around South Kowloon. Great to see the Avenue is back in business, but we miss the King... My coordinates were a bit off, but hint was crystal clear.

Just arrived in Hong Kong and on my first trip out thought I would look for a few caches.
It’s quite humid and sitting at 29c outside.
Had a wander around Tsim Sha Tsui, had a couple of DNF’s and a couple of finds.
The location for this one is a little out so confused me for a while but after reading the hint it was a fairly easy find and my first in Hong Kong.. another country to add to my list.
Thanks for the cache and the hide

Once I read in one of the previous log that it wasn’t under the vending machine I spotted it fairly quickly. What a nice place this is, especially during “blue hour“ just after sunset. Thank you so much for making me walk all the way from the Star Ferry pier.
Thanks for placing. Good site. Missed it my first attempt. But with the help of my virtual shoelace found easily on my second attempt. Watching big sun set over a fantastic view.
Find #478. On a stop over to Canada we had some time to find a cache or two. Thanks for bringing us here and TFTC.
Have a walk after dinner at tsim sha tsui. Greasy time in k11 musea. Easy find. Tftc
Today we found Avenue of Stars on our travels. We are visiting from Melbourne, Australia and on our way home from Europe. Had a look earlier in the day but I think the heat was addling my brain and the crowds were amazingly intimidating. I had better luck in the evening after the light show when no one was paying me any attention while I had a better hunt! Then we followed up with an iced drink and snack at Starbucks
Thanks Vistalia for being part of our geocaching fun.
