Usually, on a Sunday morning at around eight, I would go out for a hike in the local hills. However, yesterday, it was damp from having rained in the early hours, and I had woken up a bit later than usual, so I decided to stray away from the old routine and not head for the hills.
So what happens? I start having an urge to go walking somewhere, and spontaneously decided on a destination which was really out of the way. After a forty-five minute bus ride, I got off at Wong Tai Sin and walked to Kowloon City Ferry Pier, via Lok Fu; Kowloon City; Ma Tau Kok; and To Kwa Wan. It was a distance of about 4km, not including the stops I made at shops and shopping centres.
Did I do anything other than walking? I walked around Jusco, a Japanese store in Lok Fu Centre; made a trip to the cleanest public toilets ever, next to Hau Wong Temple, Kowloon City; bought an egg tart from the much publicised Hoover Bakery, Kowloon City; and had a look around the Cattle Depot Artists Village in To Kwa Wan.
A bargain out-of-the-way walk at: HK$8 (50p) for the bus ride from Tsing Yi to Wong Tai Sin, and HK$5.3 (35p) from Kowloon City Ferry Pier to home.
