Episode 4: Sai Kung

Sai Kung is a little town about 8km from my school. its on a river so there are a lot of fisheries there. our exchange group went to a thai restaurant for some peer bonding. here are a few pictures but nothing spectacular.

i am a little blurry in this pic, but i am standing under the Sai Kung arch. what i liked about this place was that the village was tiny, but neon flashing lights were everywhere.

here i am standing in front of one of a million seafood restaurants. i love the orange lanterns.

this is a picture of me taken to celebrate my very first ride on a double decker bus. i have to say it was quite a spectacular experience (who would have thought riding a bus would ever be that), but on a serious note, you do get a great view of everything from the second floor.

kids were playing basketball last night. the best thing about basketball is that it offers cities a lowcost solution to provide for its citizenry. soccer, football, hockey, and baseball are very demanding on space, but basketball only needs a court or even half of a court... hell just a net will do.

for those of you that think "cheers" exists only in Boston and Chicago (and a few other select american cities), feast your mind on the fact that sai kung has one too. the question is, which came first???
