What has Tuesday bought with it?

Well things were fun yesterday (Tuesday), I met up with a friend Brigid, she took me to her home town Tuen Mun, The journey was amazing recommended in the lonely planet guild book. We pasted nearly all Hong Kong on this 45min journey from Kowloon tip all the way to the north west Tuen Mun.We had a nice lunch in the centre then we headed for our next destination of cultural education.

Brigid took me visited her grandmother who lives in a traditional village house in the Hong Kong hills in Hoh Fuk Tong, it was so so not what I expected to find in Hong Kong. It was very similar to the Living style in south Asia i.e a Bangladeshi village.

Look at the pictures very Syra Miah ennit!

After that experience we headed to Yuen Long, to buy !!wife cake!! I’ve just ate two nice! Explaniation of wife cake:
Once upon a time, there is a poor family. The wife was sold to get money to let his father-in-law to receive medical treatment. The husband lost his wife but he did not give up. He developed a kind of cake with delicious taste so that he can earn enough money to get the wife back. The cake is the 'wife cake' now.
Then we headed to a traditional market were we encountered crazy stuff, i seen so many crazy fish and water animals that I am now very scared of sea food. Its was so fresh everything there was a live and kicking or flying in some cases!!!



After that we head to get some famous dessert that Yuen Long is famous for, it was fun trying to find the place as we weren’t at all familiar with the place.
Then after that we head back to Tuen Mun and looked into the music shops where I decided I want to learn the paino, so I got a book on chords as note reading seems like an impossible task!

Then we called it a day! It was fun and the sun was setting, Thanks Bridgid for a fun day.

The journey home was a sleepy one, but amazing due to it being twilight and passing amazing things.

Whats gonna happen tomorrow I wonder?

MIAH
