Sai Kung Hike to Big Wave Bay #2

I've been following a blog that posts everything from fashion/art/shopping to places/food/clubbing and parties in Hong Kong. last week there was a post about a hike.. and i thought i could use one last hike before I left hong kong. So my roommate, another friend, and i went on this hike which ended in big wave bay #2 (i say #2 bc there is a big wave bay on hk island and another one in the new territories, which is the one we went to today)

Here's the map (not too clear but.. thought i'd post it anyway. there are better pictures on the other blog linked above)

ahh look at the people. :P there were actually no waves when we got there.

We had to take a taxi to get to the hike from sai kung b/c we missed the last bus :(. and we had to take a taxi back to sai kung from the hike b/c we got there when the last bus was leaving.. haha. But we bumped into 2 other polyu students (so random) and shared a cab with them on our way back (5 way split = much cheaper fare.. and yes, you can have 5 passengers in a taxi in hong kong)

If this was my last day in HK I'd be satisfied. However, i will be back from japan next monday.. havent decided how i'll spend my last day... probably packing?
