Hiking Hong Kong part I


We met up on campus and then took the bus to Sai Kung.  From there, we along, with many impressively outfitted (in the latests REI, Patagonia, and The North Face gear) Chinese took another bus to the trailhead.  When I saw the other hikers stretching and donning their hydration packs, I started to worry that perhaps I was in for more than a stroll in the woods....

Once we entered the cool, moist, tropical forest my fears were lost to curiosity for everything around me.  Little fungi poking their fruiting bodies out of rotten logs, berries on a branch, wild cows, and even the elusively (I don't even know if you can see them in the photo) camouflaged boy scouts....
