Early morning so that we could start our trek on time!
So apparently every single day store owners put up and take down their entire store set ups :-O It's insane!! Ladies' Market owners, y'all strong yo.
Basically us ??
Chek being a carefree spirit while I handle the admin stuff.

A really really beautiful and peaceful trek (on weekdays). So glad we made time to do this :-)
That water bag saved my life hahaha.
*VERY IMPORTANT*
Bring and DRINK lots and lots of water frequently throughout the trek to avoid heat exhaustion. Heat exhaustion is a build up so it will strike you without warning. If you are having headaches through the trek, rest in shaded areas and drink up.
Long Ke beach!
Little pavilion where the wind was amazing at the bottom heh ;-)
Favourite parts of the hike: getting to do some rock climbing HAHA!
Reached the top of the mountain!!!
And here we met a cow AT THE PEAK OF THE MOUNTAIN eating some grass. He refused to let us pass as he enjoyed his meal. How do these cows even get up here???
Sharp Peak mountain in the distance!
Finally reached back to Sai Kung Town :-) It was a tiring hike but worth it all hehe!
