“What ….It’s only in between 2.80 to 3.40 Hong Kong Dollars on the Star Ferry between Tsim Sha Tsui to Central.. Awesome…!”
Having watching out for the Star Ferry terminal signs in which are written in Traditional Chinese also in English, in which most of the Street signs in Hong Kong with moderately modestly display with black fonts with a with background………. Then Finding the terminal in which departs towards Central on Hong Kong Island is walking towards to right hand side of the center corridor in which is noticeable with the tea shop, with the cute various Chinese traditional teapots… in which nearby before then the “Discover Hong Kong” was helpful in getting the right maps, also getting to reconnect with the place…. One thing I did notice is to best to ask a lot of questions, in which I did… in reconnecting with the place..
Having walking up the flight of those nostalgic, those very nostalgic stairs in which leads towards the terminal waiting room… looking onwards to the thinking back… to another exit gateway below… Seeing, thinking of the couple whom meet up at that faithful night, Ruby and Josh walking towards the Tsim Sha Tsui Promenade, catching up from all those years from a point in Lan Kwai Fong, on how he was inspired by her of going in writing his novel, then also as she found herself adventuring in becoming an expat, in finding herself, working in Hong Kong as a Chief Designer for toys.. Walking towards with that Grown up ever so changing city neonic city landscape…
As I watching that Gateway as they left those two behind, it was morning thinking, inspiring of those two.. as I walked up that terminal, seeing the place aged transitioning from my childhood years slightly fresh with those bold whites, hospital mint greens, towards the late 1989’s where the place is noticeable worn, then now walking back retracing those steps, seeming finding that sense of nostalgic aroma, back reconnecting.. as in the distance there’s something new, an Octopus entry terminal, with the harbor watery smell from a busy Victoria harbor.. Looking at one of the iconic views through the Deco style window picture framing individual of each view of Hong Kong Island, from the eastern towards the western side of the Island… With those plastic well-kept form sixty chairs like they been there seventies…

As I approached, the semi-circular room terminal, as I sat down on those retro plastic seats, awaiting for my passage for the ferry ride towards Victoria Harbour, in which, I then later onwards standing up, to examining recollecting, reconnecting of looking back.. That terminal room, looking at the through the deco style window frames, as the picture ever so constantly changes timelessly… As the harbor waves hit the Tsim Sha Tsui pier arithmetically rhythmically… Looking at the late morning city cape of Hong Kong island, thinking back at Ruby and Josh what have they been doing together before they reconnected, Thinking of that Ruby just finished of doing work at her office as well Josh, just taking a break on his novel writing. While taking the island view in while photographing the view through the windows..
As I turn from looking at the rectangle timeless pictured frames that painted Hong Kong Island ever-changing of Hong Kong Island to a view of looking down at the terminal, north wise to east thinking of also of someone as well, of the same Ruby coloured name.
As I turn backwards to the view of Hong Kong, frame by window frame, in that semi-circular waiting room looking ahead as the inbound ferry starts to berth of loading the passengers from Victoria Harbour, noticing that the place haven’t changed since, only with, with a few slight modifications along the way with some well maintain structures, paint work with TVB broadcasting news with insider TV in the background on that flat screen panel TV.. Still retaining that nostalgic feel all those years ago…
As the gates terminal gates open up to board on the ferry, I look back to where Ruby and Josh, also towards walking down to the plank entering on board the ferry, then finding that seating with those old school sitting benches along the either side of the ferry, then looking at where Ruby was standing with Josh Catching up all those years.. Then onwards to Victoria Harbour…
