This morning I went in to meet Katy and the rest of the family for church in Kowloon Tong. After eating we ended up going to the Festival Walk mall and having our usual lunch, I had a delicious chicken cheese burger. After eating lunch Katy and I went to try to catch a movie, but Sherlock Holmes was full except for the very first row, so that option was out. We went back to Central to see if there were any movies playing there, but they were all full too.
Defeated I bought a latte at McDonald's and we went to reconnoiter at the "sitting out" area on top of the mall over looking the harbor. We decided to go to
Aberdeen, which was on my list of "things to do" in Hong Kong. Aberdeen has a really interesting history in Hong Kong if you read the Wikipedia entry or my previous post.
We got off the #70 bus from Exchange Square in Central and walked along the waterfront for a little while. We came upon a place
giving Sampan rides so we decided to take an hour long tour of the harbor and the floating villages and everything else between Aberdeen and the Ap Lei Chau island.
It was a really nice ride and we had the boat pretty much all to ourselves which was awesome.
After we got back from our hour long ride we went to a 7-11 and I bought a Coca-Cola and a grape fruit juice, then we actually came across a Salvation Army, so we browsed that for a little bit before wandering a little and then returning back to Central and I caught the 5:40 ferry home and Katy took off for Ma On Shan.

Enjoyed once again your picture postings. Everything is so very crowded-unlike the North Country. I like the website you found for your egg poaching. Any new food thing for me is great. More snow on the way. We must have gotten around 7 to 10 inches in the last four days. The snow blower and plows have been getting their workout as well as the shovelers. Keep safe-love ya Nana & Papa C
