Six days of hanging out in Shenzhen and it was time to head back to Hong Kong.  Pokin’s aunt passed away last year and she wanted to pay her respects to her aunt, uncle and grandparents.  All of them were cremated in Chai Wan so that’s where we went.

First thing we did was prepare paper packages.  You fill paper bags with all the things you want to provide your ancestors in their afterlife and then you burn it so they receive it.

It can include clothes and money.

They sure cover their bases with what they print on the money.

Once the packages were prepared we put it in the furnace to send off.

And then we wiped down the face plates.

Good bye, goo mah and goo jung, grandma and grandpa.
