Ap Lei Chau Excursion

Go to Aberdeen.  Take the ferry across to Ap Lei Chau, passing through the fishing boats and luxury yachts. 



One may encounter serious amateur fishermen returning with boatloads of fish, dividing their spoils among themselves.  


Some may even be willing to sell you some leftovers. 



The main target is a small restaurant where you can get delicious steamed fish for lunch.  



The place is small and you have to squeeze against other customers.  But the fish you get are not easy to find elsewhere.  


After your lunch, walk a few steps to find fresh-from-the frying pan-hot sesame balls.  



Buy a little shark from the fish market.  Or other catches from the sea.  



Have a look at dragon heads that adorn dragon boats at the Dragon Boat Festival races.  


Stroll around to discover other small pleasantries.  It is worth spending half a day there.
