In most cities taxi drivers are some of the more eccentric people you'll ever meet, never shy about sharing wide ranging opinions and no topic is off limits. I'll never forget the first time I met my inlaws when our cabbie drove us to dinner while playing the clarinet and steering with his knees. But Hong Kong taxi drivers are normally all business. So it was actually refreshing last night to be picked up by a driver dressed all gold with a stuffed animal ox hat. He is taking Chinese New Year very seriously.
