Sunday 5th Tai O - Fishing village on stilts

Because Rich was unwell, Donna and I took the boys on a wonderful excursion to a fishing village that she was keen to see. We took a bus to Tung Chung, a large centre that I would see several times during my Hong Kong visit. From there a reversed crescent shaped trip through the mountains to the other side of Lantau island and south along the coast, finally curving back to our destination. We found a little tourist boat which we shared with one other family and we were taken along some of the canals of t he stilt village then out through the heads where we were amazed to see Chinese white dolphins playing.

We walked through the fish market, a fascinating place, then we found the ferry terminal to return to Tung Chung by water. The coastal views were beautiful and I took many photos. What a big morning - we arrived home for lunch, tired and hot.
