We walked to Sai Kung and are on the pier of the fishing harbour.
Ricky is fishing and I am sitting watching the boats coming and going. We could go to the golf course just across from the harbour or take a boat fishing anywhere we would like to go. I am always scared of the hook on Ricky’s rod catching me instead of the fish. Today is very warm, Ricky and I are not used to the heat. Ricky’s t-shirt is soaked in perspiration and I have been dabbing my eyes and neck. It is still a lot cooler than it is here in summer so October and November is a good time to come to Hong Kong. Ricky finally caught a fish and released it back into the sea because it was just little. At 16:50 we will catch the 99 bus to Wu Kai Sha then we will go into the station and catch a train using our Octopus card.
We have to travel 2 stops and get off at Heng On which also happens to be the stop for Renaissance College. Jørgen is going to meet us at the station and we are traveling to Tai Wai. As we stepped off the train at Heng On we saw Jørgen standing on the platform and he told us to get back on the train. At Tai Wai we all met Catriona and Yvonne who were on the way to their book club at TST in the Intercontinental hotel foyer.
We went for Tapas at a fabulous little Spanish restaurant. Ricky loved the Chorizo. After Catriona and Yvonne left we went to the Avenue of Stars. So many high rise buildings shining with multi coloured lights across Victoria Harbour. The star ferry passed also many other types of boat some with red sails. There was even a floating restaurant. The harbour is so beautiful and the temperature was just perfect. I can’t believe we are walking along in thin t-shirts at night. Along the walk there are paving slabs with local stars names and handprints. We will always remember that wonderful view. Sometime later we met Catriona and Yvonne and made our way back to Yau Ma Tai where we caught the bus from Mong Kok. Walking past the night market which is open every night and is always busy.
