Getting away to 南丫島

Lamma Island (南丫島), the hometown of Chow Yuen Fatt, is a sleepy fishing island of 6000 inhabitants located 40 minutes ferry ride away from the Metropolitan Hong Kong Island. The three of us decided to explore one of the many hiking trails that Hong Kong offers, and get a taste of the root of Hong Kong and probably checked out if the residents share the good look of Chow Superstar. According to Sharon's trusty Lonely Planet, there were archeological findings of early civilation at the southern part of the island dated back to 1600BC, the Neopolitan and Bronze Age. The ferry ride of 40mins costed HKD12.5, the same price of a string of char siew pork.
