Today, it was off to Tai O! Since the time I visit ... waking up is hard is long. Everyone should go take a shower, and Huey bugging us for us to go absolutely to Disneyland with her. I have no desire, I have only Tai O in the head! Rediscover nature again and again, before returning to Dalian where you will see a city of concrete and around sorry! The problem is that it is not super nice so ... motivation we lack a bit ... we decided to walk around town a little before. I also find a place to burn my photos onto a CD for my camera is full. We then went to Tai O on Lantau Island. Two ferries and a bus later, there is the journey was not short! I take some pictures from the bus as it crosses the nice scenery ... not easy, but here are clear:

Once arrived, and after 2 hours of walking on the hike from Tai O to Shek Pik O, it is still not reached its destination, and yet we walk fast! Hiking is fun, lots of nature, it is super hot, and the path follows almost the whole time range.

And the sun is sinking more and more ... I'm getting scared because you could see lots of signs warning of the HK concern they might have with mosquitoes, chickens all ... good on this ride, not too chicken ahah, but against mosquitoes with the night comes ... we begin to see them everywhere! In addition one person crosses over the lane, and it's really in the jungle more.

Moreover, a priori, there are also people who disappear into the corner, ahah, or perhaps he chose that corner just to disappear, with such good old gentleman.

It is the picture of an adventurer!

We finally cross someone, and I asked him how long he remains ... 4h! Wow! Well, we'll make it ... So we decided to come back, and running please;) We stopped once at Tai O in a restaurant where there is only the Chinese, there is a little apple with the map, we feels really far away from everything here ... away from the city, away from France, away from people, it really is in the hometown of the corner in the local restaurant where no tourist goes ... we choose anything on the card and finally it is not so bad. But it's still very strange for a meal on Christmas Day!

Back in the ferry, I asked the girl next to me know how to get to Macau, to go the next day. Soon she tells me where to take the ferry (yeah it's not far from our building), and then she asks us ... "what are you guys doing tonight?" I replied that nothing ... we thought was a stroll in HK for Christmas! Finally we find ourselves invited to the evening she and her friends, somewhere in the New Territories of HK to the north.

Fedilia, the savior of our evening

Doug, our host

We spent a night super fun to eat stuff on the barbecue and drink, there is an exchange of small gifts to the con, they chat in English and even French (there's a guy who speaks almost all languages). It also speaks to a Russian who speaks some English but with a strong emphasis ... impressive ... she looks like a spy! A super fun evening, along with super nice people ... we shall return:)

We thank you enough! Thank you
