First time……..to Peng Chau

July 24, 2010 by Mikala, to be or not to BE

What a lovely sunny day. Just couldn’t stay home. Wild heart?! No, just have to breath

Towel, bikinis, sun screen lotion….. Ready GO!

See!

Couldn’t wait to cuddle with sunshine.

Where to go? Where to go? I really couldn’t wait………

This one? Looks nice! Go go go. Why not? It sucks? It was what said by my friend. Ok. Turn out………

We were on a ferry from Discovery Bay! I couldn’t believe there is public transportation doesn’t accept Octopus (smart card). So have to have coins.

Well, the ferry trip was short but nice.

Here we went. Peng Chau! Have been living in Hong Kong since was born. But never been to Peng Chau. A new place for me to explore……… and introduced by a Gweilo :p

We didn’t go to beach directly. But…..

After first drink, just couldn’t stop. So

Was not all. More after that……

After several trips to washroom. Time to go to beach 🙂

Narrow streets with old buildings in two sides. Just like Cheung Chau. But here was so quiet. Not many shops.

A very Chinese style place for rest. Well I guess it is a place for resting lol

A closed cinema. Dropped out as not competitive enough? Sigh!

Finally,

hmm, not what I expected. Just not beautiful and attractive at all. Even no changing room around. Had to go back to pier. I was really disappointed.

Kept walking along……..

A lovely bbq area. With nice view. So we sat there and had beer again.

Still was an enjoyable outing.

Thanks Bill for the nice afternoon. Always fun with you x

Tim Tam

You got a parcel!

Normally, you got an email instead of a mail or a parcel. What you prefer?

Email will be something fast but “cold”. No character, no “soul” there.

A mail or a parcel is something you can touch. You can feel. You can smell!

You can tell something from hand writing. Those my friends complained can’t read my hand writing usually lol But at least they know, that’s me. Someone has special “character” 😛

Well, back to parcel. Got the parcel from security at lobby. Yes, not in mail box as it is too big. Mail boxes is a pigeon hole big!

“Hug” my parcel back home. Couldn’t wait to open it. Something from Australia…….

Haha Tim Tam!!!!!!!

First knew it on Qantas flight to Brisbane. Stewardess educated a German couple about Tim Tam after she saw the couple left it untouched! I didn’t get that benefit as I love dessert. Always finished it.

Well, I got four packs of Tim Tam from sweet Alan who always stock it home. My Koala is excited he got something from Australia. He misses home lol. I am sad he still miss home. He should take HK as his home!

I think we could get Tim Tam in HK as I found HK importer’s information at the back of pack. Dare not to tell Alan :p But it is his sweet heart and thought count. And it made the biscuit more sweet and tasty.

Found something well associated with Australia in kitchen. A bottle of Vegemite. Almost untouched. Had it on bread once. Don’t like the taste. Kept there for some other reasons. Too sad to see it and touch it. Well, it has been expired for two years. It’s time to trash it with memories.

Anyway, I have lots of Tim Tam now. I am happy getting something sweet.
