so many nice paths. We were on one today. One of the paths that iron-
wife used to get on when she lived in Tsuen Wan District. We were out
from 1130am till 4pm. We only took a 15-minute taxi from the hiking
end point to China University where she did a one-year Chinese Study.
Getting away from the downtown core on Hong Kong island today was a
good choice. Heat wave warning today. Got out there. Cooler (aka
tolerable). We were prepared. Backpack with about 3L of water. 2
cans of sweat electrolytes replacement. Apples and nuts. When we
were on the trail, we were not that hungry; just sweat a tone. Fresh
air. Sunny. A little bit of rain and thunders and lightnings. Other
than that, a very nice time. A very easy hike. Not a hardcore
serious one we were expecting. Have to pick another trail next time.
Very interesting to see people live in pockets of districts all over.
But the subway lines make things easy. Took us 45 minutes from
downtown to the hike's starting line - A subway change including a 10-
minute walk for that and a mini-bus ride up the hill.
O yeah, after the hike we took a taxi to China University where Audrey
did her one-year Chinese Study and ended up staying in Hong Kong for
10 years. Taxi, because we couldn't find the subway and the wind
whipped up from the incoming storm. We just missed it!
Then after an hour or so in China U, we took the subway to visit Jon,
my cousin, and his family.
Here is out track today.
