Junk Junkies


The highlight of this holiday was definitely the junk trip out to Sai Kung. We hired a Chinese Pleasure Junk and took it to a small floating fish farm in Kau Sau Wan. Here, the kids had a great time "feeding" the huge fishes and "fishing" the tiny ones. Lunch was a simple but tasty "home-cooked" fare with incredibly fresh seafood straight out of the sea. After that, we stopped at a tiny beach along the way and played the afternoon away.
