As with all things - the end comes.
And today was the last of our couple's days out. It would have been great if it had been all blue skies and beautiful. Well it was foggy and gray, but still a great day. We bused to the ferry terminal and caught the ferry to Peng Chau. We walked through the town center and headed for Finger Hill. Elder and Sister Smith stayed down and explored the town and up the hill we went. It was a good hike, and would have been a great view without the fog. On the way down we passed some really pretty flowers.
We had a short wait, then caught the ferry to Trappists Jetty. The wait gave us enough time to go to Wellcome and stock up on drinks and treats. The ferry is an old "tub", but it made it safe and sound. We walked up to the monastery and the Smith’s headed down the trail towards Discovery Bay to meet up with us at the end.
The monastery was quiet and peaceful and we fed the fish and turtles. Then headed back down and across the trail towards Discovery Bay. We told the Smith’s it was a nice flat walk. Funny the games your mind plays on you, it had some pretty steep ups and downs on it, but at the end of the trail there were the Smith’s all smiles, waiting for us.
Another short walk and we found the Mexican restaurant. It was such a warm day that we ate on the patio which would have been beautiful on a nice sunny day, but at least the temperatures were perfect. Lunch was delish, then we headed back on the ferry. I think most of us caught a few winks on the way home. Nice day!
We are certainly going to miss these days out together!
Flowers everywhere
