Port Visit HONG KONG The Flagship enjoyed two six-day visits to Hong Kong, in April and November 1985. We found Hong Kong to be a visual extravaganza of old China, colonial England and modern Western civilization. Blue ? e personnel enjoyed a good balance of R R, organized tours and social events. Civic Action projects arranged by the ship ' s Human Resources Officer rounded out our first visit to this truly exotic port, where skyscrapers, London buses and tramcars are integrated comfortably with rice paddies, rickshaws and junks. On the last day of our first visit, members of the crew visited the Saint James Settlement, a Christian organization that cares for the elderly and for mentally retarded children. They worked throughout the day, painting, fixing shelves and landscaping— a worthy close to some of the finest liberty Blue Ridge has seen. 16
