A fine day out

It is the end of the school year, which means many goodbyes as teachers leave for pastures new.
Neighbour and Maths / SEN teacher Tracy and her family were leaving, so a junk party was organised.
A junk is usually an old-fashioned wooden boat with an engine. However ours was a bit posher. Here we are all lounging at the back of the boat. We took a range of booze and snacks with us and at 11.30am the party was in full swing. Here's me (in orange) with my friends.


We didn't take our own monsters that day as they didn't want to go. Heather went to a friend's house for a sleepover and Alexandra did playing on her computer all day.

Back to the day - The boat had an upper deck. We stopped in a cove on the way to the restaurant and people did this:

By "people" I am not including myself. I could have stepped daintily down the ladder of course, but being out of my depth after plentiful beer does not not top out my list of good things to do.


So we went onto lunch - yummy. You can see the back of me in orange, chowing down even when everyone is finished and chatting. Jaspa's restaurant can be reached after a very long hike over the hills, or by this more refined method of boating in. We ordered a mix of foods and shared. BTW there was more beer (funnily enough).


So we wended our way back home via boat - the sun setting over the mountains - pleasantly full and slightly tipsy (more than slightly tipsy in some cases).
And here is the farewell photo:

It sums up Hong Kong in June/ July. Bikinis and Face Masks.
Or if you prefer not to wear the face mask on your face it makes an amusing accessory.
Bye Tracy & Chris we'll miss you loads.
