I love it that everything runs smoothly in Hong Kong. After the hardship of going up, going down the mountain could only get better with well-paved trails and signs. The descent also got me closer to looking at the Big Buddha or the Tian Tian Buddha which I only got to admire from the postcards and pictures in the past. This pic even got me closer to the Buddha, but did not take anymore the flight of 268 steps. After the descent, I sort of magically landed in a park where the rest of the tourist civilization was :) In the park, there was a way going ... Continue Reading...
Climbing Lantau Peak, Hong Kong’s second tallest mountain
Climbing Lantau Peak was one unexpected thing to do in 'touristy' Hong Kong. I had mentioned to a reliable guide that I wanted to go hiking in the territory, so I was expecting some leisurely walking on plains and plateaus.

We were there for something like less than 24 hours, but still it was worth it Expectedly, The Daughter loves being in a new environment and jumped & lay on the bed as soon as we got in :) Considering that I was in another hotel a few days before (the Peninsula Manila), the Dusit Club Deluxe room (about 30 sq.m., ...
