Today my visitors and I went to explore Lamma Island. It was great...the first day that everyone stayed awake for the whole day! The jet lag is finally getting under control I think. We took the ferry to the island and hiked from one side of the island to the other. Actually, I wouldn't call it so much of a hike, it was more of a leisurely stroll on a paved path. It was very quiet on the island, and since I have been living in the middle of a city, it seems like the minute I get into a quiet, open environment I immediately relax. The difference is pretty remarckable. Don't get me wrong, I am loving the city life, but when I get out to a calm place, with relatively few people, I feel like I am really "getting away from it all."
The island was nice and green and there were a few deserted beaches along the path, which was pretty cool. Of course, the nicest beach was right next to a huge power plant, but if you don't mind that it was a great beach. We ended up stopping at a beach that was further from the beaten path called Lo So Shing Beach. We had a seafood lunch at the Rainbow restaurant Sok Kwu Wan and they gave us VIP stickers and a free boat ride home! There are a few more little villages on the island that I would like to check out...I will have to drag Matt along with me some weekend.
