Day 3

On 3rd day, we thought that we will bring Ben to some outdoor places which we visited 8 years ago - Bird Park and Flower market. Caught the MTR there...then read the map to walk....
...we walked and walked....but unfortunately I read the map wrongly...we went the wrong direction...so here we are in the taxi....
..at the old Bird Garden...actually this was a place where the old folks bring their birds in cages to socialise with each other. We were a bit sad to see that there were less people and less birds...and nearby there was an on-going construction project...sigh...things never stay the same...
..the 2 boys....
...see, the whole lane is empty. Used to be packed with old men carrying their bird cages and chatting with each other...

...and the Fish Market as well...things also changed here...used to be many many pails outside on the pavement with loads of gold fishes swimming around. Maybe due to the hygience issue, everything has been moved into the shops ....

...see, the pavement are all empty now....a bit sad...

...then we were off walking...
...nice market with a lot of things to see and buy...bought a Thomas pajamas, socks and tidbits...cannot buy other things because not suitable for our weather.
...lunch came about and we had porridge....it was nice hot porridge for a cold weather. But unfortunately, it did not last me very long...after that had to look for buns as because of the cold weather, the metabolisme higher?
...after that, it was more shopping.....
