An Excellent Weekend

We were right on the verge of having another lazy weekend. Pete worked late on Friday night and the Shmoo woke us up around 7:00am. We put her down for a nap and Pete was about ready to settle into the couch for a nap himself, while I was getting ready to read a chapter or two of my book. Right then Bob called and asked us if we wanted to go an adventure to Shek O, a little beach town about 45 minutes away. So, we put our laziness on the back burner, packed up little Lucy, and headed out - we are so glad we did!
We were all starving when we got there, so we stopped at this little Thai/Chinese restaurant and had a feast of fried rice, black bean shrimp, and Thai red curry. It was SO good!

Lucy is grabbing at everything these days - she really wanted Pete's beer to be her first taste of "real" food!

The town is such a cute little beach town. We could have easily been in the Mediterranean - I love beach towns! It felt like we were on vacation for the day.


There is lots of money in this town as well. This is a house - more like a mansion. The word "house" and Hong Kong, don't really go together.

We just strolled around and explored. There were some great views!

Lucy took it all in.

As usual, her dad was a bit of a nut - you gotta love it!

Bob, enjoying the splendor.

Some Hong Kongese enjoying the day.


At the end of the day, we were all wiped! Lucy had the right idea!
