So for a change, here are a few pictures of Hong Kong (Sai Kung to be more accurate).  I&#8217;ve always been told that Sai Kung was very nice for hiking and it&#8217;s true that it has something to offer when you feel trapped in Hong Kong city.<\/p>\n<p>Taking advantage of this Easter break, I went to Sai Kung to find a nice little beach around Sai Wan and a small waterfall nearby called Sheung Luk stream (here are the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.timeout.com.hk\/around-town\/features\/24982\/get-out-sheung-luk-stream.html\">instructions<\/a> to get there).  The weather was just good, a little overcast but not too hot and the hike was rather easy.  Going there from Hong Kong island is a bit of a hustle as reaching the trail itself will take about 2 hours of MTR, bus and taxi.  Count another hour for the hike and you&#8217;ve got yourself a busy day&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, it was definitely worth getting some fresh air away from the city and get a few pics to feed this blog!
