This has been an emotional week. Along with the latest twists in the Glory to Hong Kong saga (and quite a bit else which I've not gone into on this blog such else the Hong Kong student charged with sedition for online posts she made while in Japan), June 12th, 15th and 16th have also fallen this week (and thus the fourth anniversaries of key events that took place in Hong Kong).
So my plan for today had included going and visiting the Double Ducks again now that the deflated one has been reinflated, and news has come that they'll be gone from Hong Kong after this week. But thunderstorms for much of the day put paid to that planned excursion. And, actually, the weather's been pretty bad (or, at least, wet) for much of this week; so much so that I reckon it'd be nice to get a reminder that Hong Kong can be sunny, and really beautiful when so!
So... here's putting up some photos from the majorly sunny day that was last Saturday. For, as it so happens, I did take a bunch of photos on my way to see the giant rubber ducks at Admiralty, not just when I got there... and feel that this batch provides us with some welcome whimsy. ;b
It was super hot when I took this photo, and not many people
were out in the sun and thus privy to this beautiful sight!
(complete with "blue eye-shadow" ;b)
dragon boats and duck (pedal) boats!
weeks ahead of Tuen Ng this year!

Making a blog post can get one into trouble. That a little much.
Coffee is on, and stay safe.
Hi peppylady --
I agree that social media posts getting someone into serious trouble is kinda crazy!
