on a sunday afternoon we took a short journey,

to the hong kong countryside known as sai kung.

we strolled the boardwalk after dinner with friends,

where children played and songs were sung.

we saw the local fishermen sell fish from their boats,

and outside of restaurants too.

others found delight from the ice cream truck,

or taking ferries into the waters blue.
