What a rainy day!

As I have promised my father to take him to HK to see his brother several weeks ago, even though the weather was not good today, he insisted and asked me to keep the promise, therefore, we followed the plan to take the ferry to HK at 10:45

Arrived Pou Lam MTR at around 1PM, had tea in the Chinese Restaurant, 3 old people were happy on chatting and getting the updated news.

Then, on the way back to HK side, we stopped by Taikoo Sing, browsing around the stores - Wing On....... and tea at FoodRepublic.

Got the Ferry back to Macau at 7:30.......

Finished the half day trip of the short visit, though the tickets were expensive - Father was happy to see old friends, the time was precious for them.

Wise saying from Uncle W -

Uncle W insists to keep on walking and exercising, though his feet are painful. He said that the engine needs to function.

Story of "one half orange" from Aunt -

She told me the early life of her children were not easy - Uncle W was the only one to go out to work for the family, with 5 children at home, she needed to spend money wisely and carefully, therefore the kids were taught to share oranges among themselves, that means each time each child got only one half of the oranges, the kids were very obedient and this custom was kept until they were 20.

By the time came back to Macau, the TV in the ferry showed that the African children are under nutrient, eggs are the only expensive food for them and they can only afford this once a month.

For myself, it reminds me that we should appreciate what we have in our life.
