28-Feb Hiking The Dragons Back

Another visit to Foodie for a dim sum breakfast (we were hooked) before catching the MTR to Chai Wan station on the east side of the island, then a bus to Shek O. Today we were hiking the Dragons Back, a popular hike on Hong Kong Island.

The trail was fairly easy, although it was quite warm (about 24c).  We paced ourselves while enjoying the views of Stanley and Big Wave Beach and the South China sea.

Unfortunately in the last few metres of the hike, Jordan badly sprained his ankle and was in great pain. With the help of a large fallen branch to use as a crutch, he limped on and off buses and trains to get back to the hotel for some rest and ice.
While Jordan rested, I went to Causeway bay to see the Tin Hau Temple, picking up some beer and treats on the way back to the hotel. After some rest, Jordan felt able to go out, so we went out for dinner nearby and rounded off the evening at a really fun bar called Petticoat Lane on Wyndham St - this was the Hong Kong nightlife we had been expecting!
