According to my mother, I dont have enough pictures of myself. Soooo...I took some more!
I woke up feeling tired and sore all over. The day, I thought was going to be a rest day where I could recover and save a buck or two. It wasnt long before Ching Ching, came into my room to look through my entire bag followed with multiple questions. Why Why Why...errr Because this, because that. T jeh jeh as the kids call her, briskly came in as well and asked if she could tag along with one of my adventures, it was her day off after all. So I guess today was a play day.
The two of us took the ferry across to Lantau Island, Mui Wo port. Buses were parked outside waiting for tourists to pack themselves inside. We took the number 2 to Nyong Ping, also the location of the Big Buddah and Monestary. The ride there was nicknamed "The Bus Ride from Hell" by a Canadian girl in the back.
Rain drizzled as we walked up the steps to Buddah. Halfway up I almost died of exhaustion. It turns out the Buddah looked better down the stairs than up close on top. The monestary was boring as well, but I got to witness the locals praying for lots and lots of good fortune.
Next stop was Tai O, a village famous for its shrimp paste and fishy markets. We had dow fu fa (Tofu Flower haha) for $7 each. We left Tai O and returned to Mui Wo where we snacked on chicken nuggets from Micky Ds.
The night ended at the Thai restaurant where I nearly died again from the heat of chili peppers.
Bad bus driver. Bad
