December 18th: Wu Gau Teng to Sam Ah Tsuen to Wu Gau Teng

The Fridayhikers are a group of friends who go hiking for leisure. Depending on the weather and road conditions, the hiking route may be subject to change without prior notice. Participants joining the hikes do so at their own will and at their own risk. They may consider buying their own insurance for better protection. The hike leaders, the organizers and any other participants in the hikes are exonerated from any liabilities and claims as a result of any accidents or losses arising.


Dear Fridayhikers,

This Friday will be the last official hike for 2015.  The two Fridays following is Christmas Day and a public holiday, followed by New Year's Day which is of course also a public holiday.  So to celebrate the last hike for 2015, we will go to Sam Ah Tsuen and have a nice lunch at 福利茶室.  Mr. Tsang has been contacted and will prepare lunch for us.  As before, he will decide the menu according to what is fresh from the sea that day.  I have requested for 泥鯭粥，芋頭扣肉，赤蠔 (subject to availability as this is rare), 大量青菜，薑蛋炒飯，芋頭蕃薯糖水 in addition to seafood.

Those who have indicated they would be coming are:
DK, KM and Margaret, John and Rita, Leo, Anson and Adrian, Hannah, Louisa and brother, Peggy, Thomas and myself.   I have informed Mr. Tsang that there will be fourteen of us.


Please note that the minibus 20C to Wu Gau Teng departs from Tai Po KCR Station at 9:10 am.  Be there early and queue up.   In case you are unable to get on this minibus as it is full, please take the minibus to Tai Mei Tuk.  This runs every 5 to 10 minutes.   Leave a message on WHATAPPS to say that you are going to Tai Mei Tuk.   

For those who are driving, you can park outside Wu Gau Teng as we start from and return to the same spot.  KM and Hannah will be driving and we will see if anyone else will drive.  It will be much appreciated if the drivers can first assemble at Tai Mei Tuk Carpark at around 9:30 am to see if there is a need to pick up passengers from Tai Mei Tuk to Wu Gau Teng.  

Please reply to confirm whether you will drive, go in someone's car, or take the minibus.

Further to the exchanges on Whatsapps, please will all twenty of us who are going this Friday please assemble at Tai Mei Tuk carpark at 9:30 am.  And we will then drive to Wu Gau Teng.  

There are now two more vacancies as two have dropped out.  Please enrol asap either on the blog or on whatsapps.
