San Mun Tsai walk

What a glorious day. At last, a clear blue sky, and cooler weather. I set off for a walk in the mid morning and arrived home just before dark - with my friend Sophia who lives in the flat above me at the college. The day was one of discovery in the To Lo Harbour area. First a walk to Tai Po Waterfront Park with its well cultivated gardens and playscapes for children. Then, up to the industrial village waterfront where a festival was in full flight - we ate corn grilled on the hotplate, and then set off for San Mun Tsai. After yum cha lunch, we walked through the old fishing village and headed on a long walk towards the undeveloped natural area of Ma Shi Chau - a protected area with beautiful beaches and bountiful beach glass. After a short ride back to the village in a local sampan, we headed home. Hong Kong at its brilliant best.
