Hong Kong, Hong Kong - Part 2 - Cheung Chau Trip

As I was kind of fedup about the shopping and makan in HK, I proposed to my friend that we should really go the somewhere ulu. Thus, we decided to make a trip to Cheung Chau! Seen and heard about this place so many times in the Hong Kong series but Cheung Chau is never a spot in our touring agenda during our HK tour.

As my friend here have not been to Cheung Chau since he came here 7 years ago, we were kind of excited and looking forward to this trip today.

A bit of intro about my friend here, he is Raymond. One of my very best friends known since my secondary school time. He has nice and firm buttock. Moreover, he has pink nipples too. Oh... gorh....... have been reading too much of the porn section of the HK newspaper.... Those sentences just came out too naturally while writing an entry....

He is now married with his wife, Joanna - a Hongkie too. Lovely lady. Took real good care of me during my stay here in HK.

Before we took the ferry to Cheung Chau, mesti makan sarapan dulu lar. See, not so wonderful meal but it ended up with the damage of HK$70. Makan here is so expensive in HK.
This is the ferry that we took..... speed boat.
Told you that we were so looking forward to this trip. Look at how happy we were... We departed at about 11:12am as stated in the photo.
After 30 minutes, we finally reached the long awaited Cheung Chau. Looks a bit ulu really, but that was what we really after - just get away from the damn city!
Noticed a very interesting sign here. Think that somehow, many people try to jump to the sea to commit suicide..... BTW, for those of you who do not know, Cheung Chau is a heavan for commiting suicide - "burning carcoal". Somehow, many young couples go to Cheung Chau to kill themselves the minute their family oppose to their relationship. Then they ended up staying in the Hotel Funeral next to my hotel here..... EEEEERRRRRIIIIIEEEEEE........
First sign that appeared is this..... So, don't play play okay. Don't mess around with the police in HK.
It was kind of dissapointing when we arrived. It was pouring really heavily. Damn. Such a party pooper... lucky that we have our umbrellas with us... No way was this rain gonna take away our joy man.... NO WAY.

As we were kind of hungry again and just to get a shelter from the downpour, we went to this dim sum restaurant to makan.

The dim sums were delicious! Yum Yum. They were totally different from what we can have in KL.

Pork Rib and chicken feet. Rated 8/10
Teow Chew dumpling - rated 8/10
Chicken Pao - never tried but my friend said lousy....
This is totally my favourite - donno what that is - 10/10.
Saw an adult's only arcade too... Literally adult's arcade.........
Huh, this is one of the highlight - the dragon boat racing festival! They have a mega function here with this event. What an experience.
We decided to take the bike instead of walk. However, since it was pouring heavily, we bought ourselves some raincoats. Here is the photo with us in Emporio Armani Suits.
Got myself a DKNY slippers too.
I thought my friends were so enthusiastic about the bicycle ride - who knows that they rented this and getting me to ride them around..... I was like a hero and said - No Problem. You dare you come lar.......
After 2 minutes, they really scared....... So, they decided to take the bikes on their own instead.

Cost of renting the bicycle - cheap - HK$20 for 3 hours per bike. Not bad at all.

The only reason why we want to rent the bike was because we want to visit the Cheung Poh Chai cave i.e. Cheung Poh Chai = Peter Cheung in English.

Peter Cheung was a historical person - who was a pirate. Chow Yuen Fatt is going to feature in the sequel of "Pirates of the Carribean III". This is him lar. Apparently, he went into hiding in this cave during his pirate time. Thus, we must go and check out the cave.
It was quite a hike to get up to the cave, but the view and journey was magnificent. Love it.
BTW, the Peter Cheung cave is just at the back of my friends. We finally reached after only 15 minutes of hiking, albeit, with heavy rain.
That IS the cave. My friend was like a hero and quicky jumped into the cave.
This was the photo taken inside the cave... isn't it beautiful? Somehow, I think not go in. Hey, how to go to cave adventure with my cute slippers lar. Somemore it was raining heavily. Slippery like hell.
Thus, after staying for about 10 minutes, we went to another place. Wonderful sea view. Love it! It was quite cooling too.
Somehow, I realised that there were wild cactus everywhere here in the island. Thus, took a pic here. They are real wild cactus okay.

Wow, even their toilet is so damn clean. See, just like hotel and you can literally lick the floor.

It was still raining heavily at 3pm. Thus, we decided to call it a day and went back at 3:30pm.

Next time you go to HK, take a trip to Cheung Chau. Quite a nice trip. Just to get myself off from the hectic city life.
