Airbus - Monday morning Sept. 3

I read in the paper yesterday that the new Airbus 380 aircraft would be in Hong Kong today & do a flyby over the harbor between 8:00 and 8:30am. I made a point of being in front of our window at that time, actually I was talking to my friend Elise on the computer. Just before 8:00am I noticed several helicopters just hovering at different points along the harbor. At 8:05am I heard a low roar & saw the A380 come around the side of the harbor. It was just above eye level and was pretty huge. It looked like it was sort of floating. It did 2 flybys. I was not smart enough to have the camera set up to snap a shot. It probably would not have made that good a photo, but it sure was fun to see. Good way to start out the week!
