The History of The Jago's

Kaito school put on a fathers day party, I left work early to see Kai`s first dance and kind of play,

The party began with the kids singing a song, They also introduced us to a few games the teachers had tought the kids.

Kai was trying to sing it was very cute he also made a special paper shirt for his daddy it had superdad on it it was funny and a tie and he and the class had songs to sing and games to play.

in one of the games the kids had to shavingfoam and hair gel on all the dads it was funny and used a lollypop stick to shave us, They also did some dancing. 

Discovery Bay to Mui Wo

This walk is about 2 hours long

If lyour ever in Hong Kong and would like to do this walk. Take Discovery Bay ferry from Pier 3 (next to Star Ferry on HK Island).

You will need to get off at DB ferry Terminal and Walk up the hill past the bus station. Turn left and go right where the road branches and the path is on the right along the coast.

Discovery Bay

Golf course

We walked to Mui Wo this is a little town on South Lantau Island in Hong Kong Today.

Firstly we walkedT from our apartment which is opposit the Plaza and the Tennis Court, we walked down the hill and then up over the hill and past the firestation. This road takes you to a  small ferry terminal where the inter-island frries come in. If you dont want to walk you can get a ferry from here to Mui Wo or Peng Chau. There is a trail there that leads up to the Tappistere  Monastery. Years ago the Trappist Monks had a dairy there and you can still find bottles of Trappist Monastery Milk, although the cows are long gone now, probably off living in a much more hospitable place. When I think of a dairy and milk cows I think of beautiful lush green pastures like my home land of the UK and where my Mum and Dad live , not steep semi-tropical islands.

View of coastal area along the trail

It was a gradual climb with beautiful beach views around every turn in the trail. The monastery is reached by a steep road, you will see a very old land rover that may have been used to take the milk down to the local towns.

We walked on past the monastery and continued up hill. At one point we had a view looking down on the Discovery Bay Golf course, what a great place to play it is. Then all of a sudden you leave the trees and begin a serious climb to the top of a VERY steep hill.

After a short rest we started down the other side to Mui Wo. This side is much steeper and we were certainly glad that we were going down, not coming up (love those walking sticks). Stairs, stairs, and more stairs. The trail drops down to the beach on the opposite side from the Mui Wo Ferry terminal, the beach is very big and nice.

We had dinner at a very Chinese resturant very cheap and near the ferry terminal, there was a pub called the me China Bear where we got some well deserved beers.

Then we got the ferry back to DB where we had a well deserved rest on the beach before heading home for a good sleep.
