This weekend, we decided to hike the nearby mountain. The place where we live is called pokfulam, it is the location of Hong Kong University and Hong Kong's first reservoir. It was a short hike of 3/4 hours to Victoria Peak from the entrance of the park. The welcoming ceremony was feeding the mosquitos, giving us countless mosquito bites as souveniors. Ignoring the body torture, we continued our trip bravely and started looking at the nature. It was mostly trees and leaves without many scenic views on the path. After a 30 minute walk uphill and 3 stops, a small but colourful reptile suddenly appeared in front of our eyes, it was a small lizard. This little creature reminded us to observe nature in more detail. The trip was becoming more enjoyable. There were dozens of beautiful butterflies of different types flying around, while a big cool spider was taking its afternoon nap in its magnificent web. The turtles were swimming with their friends and families in the reservoir peacefully, enjoying life in a quiet way. Just 5 minutes by bus from where we live, there is a totally different world.
