Today the Happy Hong Kong Hikers set off from Discovery Bay to Mui Wo. Known as an "easy" hike it consisted of a variety of settings. We began on a small trail that skirted the beach. We seemed to be traveling through people's homes as the trail took us through the village and up the hill. We hiked up above the village and had a beautiful vista of Discovery Bay and the "China Pride." We followed the signs towards Mui Wo which took us on a steep up hill road to the Our Lady of Peace Nunnery and the Trappist Monastery. We encountered big spiders and beautiful butterflies. The "two hour hike" took us about two hours even though we rested and snacked along the way. Once past the monastery we avoided tall stairs to the pagoda and met the stairs on the other side of the hill. From there it was down hill most of the way into Mui Wo where we learned ways to do chain link fence gardening! It was awesome. We arrived there 15 minutes before the next Ferry back to Central. Good going girls. Go Fight Win!!! We hope more of you will join us next month - November- when we hike another "easy" trail on Grass island.
