Day three Chinese New Year

Today’s not a day to go and visit people.  It’s a day to get your fortune told.

Well we went and visited loads of people.

First stop, Uncle Adolf’s house.  Uncle Adolf moved to Pok Fu Lam which is located on the South Side of HK.  The metro line doesn’t run south, so we got a ride from the Admiralty MTR and drove around to the south side.

Pok Fu Lam used to be a dairy farm but is now a swanky residential area.  It was a fine day and Uncle Adolf lives in the Penthouse suite so we got a good view of the South China Sea and Lamma Island.  Brunch on a rooftop is not a bad thing at all.

Next stop, cousin Shirley’s place in Tseung Kwan O on the other corner of Hong Kong.

They live beside a mall with the best name in the world.

That’s right, PopCorn Mall.  They’ve even got a PopCorn mascot.

Since it was the Year of the Horse, they had some horses too.

Cousin Shirley lives in a tall high rise tower.  She’s on the 53rd floor.  That’s almost as high as I fly.

Eventually we went back down to the ground floor to meet with Auntie Connie, do another group photo, and then it was time to make our way back into Shenzhen, China.
