Claire & Steve's Excellent Adventure
We met up with Dan for lunch at a popular Dim Sum eating hall. Emma and Dan obviously knew what they were doing when choosing from the many trolleys that came around and we put our trust in them not to choose anything too dodgy! We left the sea blubber and chicken's feet on the trolley and opted for some lovely Pak Choi and Pork Dumplings and Jasmine tea. I think they were trying to break us in gently for the rest of our journey through the minefield of Chinese cuisine!
Later we went with Emma out to Big Wave Bay - it was a tad cold and we watched the surfers doing their thing from the safety of the beach. After a game of frisbee and a walk around the village of Shek-O we headed onto Repulse Bay. This was a lovely beach and really nice that you can escape the city when you need to. We visited the temple and spent some time rubbing the various statues in the hope that they would bring us good fortune for 2006. We walked over the Longevity Bridge a couple of times which apparently adds a few days to your life each time you cross it.
We headed for Stanley Market where we bought, of all things, ski trousers for our trip to New Zealand! They were so cheap and good brands too. If only we had more money and time we could have bought a job lot and sold them on ebay!
