Making Plans at Discovery Bay










From the pool at the Siena Club the view across to Hong Kong Central is pretty hazy, but you can just make out the 2 tallest buildings - one on Kowloon where Rich works and one at HK Central. Looking closer, towards Disneyworld, a barge is depositing clean fill to enlarge the area of the new Piaza shopping area which is walking distance from the apartment. Across one of the swimming pools, there is a good view of the curved roof of the big school at Siena - unfortunately, the waiting list is so long, no more names can be added.
Cherril arrived from Melbourne on an early plane and after dropping her luggage at her son's home, she walked to the Plaza to meet me for lunch. We planned three days' activities - Macau on Wednesday (must take the passport); Hong Kong on Thursday - The Peak and Stanley Market; Tung Chung and the cable car to the Big Buddha and the monastery on Friday.
