We have eleven missionary couples and we try to have a combined activity each month. In February we went to Cheung Chau Island for our activity. The island has no cars, but small utility vehicals are used for construction. Upon arriving Shirley was so happy because there was a McDonalds right next to the ferry terminal.
We all met in the lobby and headed out for Cheung Chau Island. Dew has been studying the bus and bus routes and we walked ½ block, caught bus 11 and it delivered us right in front of the ferry terminal. How about that!
We ferried over and got off at the ferry dock, and there right in front of us was...two exciting things, a Wellcome and a McDonalds. This place isn’t all that small! We soon spotted rental bikes, there are no cars on the island! And off we went, some in bike pulled buggies, and some on just plain bikes. How fun it was to be “on the road again”. But my favorite biker of the day was the Chinese woman who was tooling down the road on a bike...with training wheels!
The bikes split everyone up and we all headed in wild directions. But met again at 1 for lunch. Some did the authentic Chinese, some McD’s and some, well, I don’t know where they all went. Some left right after lunch, others stayed on.
Dew and I stayed and walked back to the other side of the island to see a bronze age rock carving that we had missed. Seems that we were within a 100 feet of it and went the other way. On the way back we tried taking back streets and got lost a few times and dead ended a few times, but finally made it back. We left about 3:30pm.
