Afternoon at Cheung

Woke up this morning and we decided to go to Cheung Chau. We've been wanting to go island hopping ever since we moved to Hong Kong and guess, we finally decided today is the day to go. And yes, must say Babe was very sporting about it. He was the one that suggested.

Walking along the promenade. Lots of boats. Cheung Chau is basically a fishing village so it's no surprise to see heaps of little boats.

Oh yes, a little shaggy dog on the boat. We suspect that this is a 'houseboat' and this is the pet of the owners. We saw the owners of this boat going on board and then taking off in their working boat to go fishing.

The beach in Cheung Chau. This was a fine day but it's a still a little too cold to be out suntanning and swimming at the beach.


Babe and me at the beach. Pardon Babe's hair. He's into his natural look today. Very natural and organic!

On the upperdeck of the ferry.


It was a nice afternoon. Rather well-spent. But the reality, don't think we'll be going back there soon again. Cheung Chau is like a little village in the 70s with shops selling stuff from Phuket. And yes, this reinforces the fact that we're very much city people and we love our city life way too much to the fact that we got bored in like an hour. Next stop, Lamma Island.
