First time in Tun Mun

I got a lot of first time experience today.  We went to Tun Mun to visit grand pa’s brother.  It is the first time I visit Tun Mun and I got a chance to ride on LRT (light railway transit).  After lunch with grand pa’s relatives, we went to the famous Tun Mun Park.  We first saw people playing remote control boat in the pond near the entrance.  We then saw a few groups of ‘self entertaining’ performance on our way, though I have not much interested on.  Obviously, the children playground was the part I enjoyed most in the park.  At around 4:30pm, we took West Rail from Tun Mun to Austin station in kowloon.  It was also the first time I take this rail.

Mom's Grand Father's Funeral

Tonight, I spent a few hours in 萬國殯儀館 to attend Mom's Grand Father's Funeral. He was 101 years old when he passed away 3 weeks ago.  This is the first funeral I have been to.  The monks reciting Buddhism scripts sounds like to me they are singing endless songs through out the hours.

Mom and Dad will go to the graveyard tomorrow morning to attend the burial ceremony, leaving me at home with auntie Fong.

Mom’s grand Pa passed away this noon.  He and I differed a century in age.

360

Last night, Grand Pa made a sudden suggestion of a family day trip. Dad worked out and executed the plan.

We went to Lantau Island by MTR, then took the Ngong Ping 360 cable car up hill to see the big Buddha statue. It is a very popular trip for tourist visiting Hong Kong. This time we went with Grand Pa's relative from China. Weather was not good with a bit of rain. The Buddha statue was hidden in the mist when we arrived the cable car terminal. We went to Po Lin Tempo have a vegi-lunch first. After lunch, weather turned a bit better and we saw Buddha statue from far. I always thinking he is saying bye-bye to me :-) and I bye-bye him back. Grand Ma took me up to the statue's platform and went inside it. It is a museum inside and it is the first time I encounter with the relics of Buddha.

We took a bus to Tai O, a small fisherman village, to have an afternoon tea break where we ate 豆腐花. The shop claimed that this 豆腐花 is made with water from local water source.

We took another bus from Tai O back to Tung Chung and end up with a dinner in the so-call outlet Mall.
