Here we go again ~ Sai Yuen Camping Adventure

After our previous stay at the African Safari Tent (for details on Sai Yuen, I suggest to read this https://www.facebook.com/113508473635882/posts/215658000087595/), we booked for a night at one of their most popular, the Sunset Vista. It’s a dome-shaped tent on a big lawn with facilities and surroundings to enjoy privately. 






Dome-shaped tent with: 

- 1 double bed and 1 sofa bed for max. 4 person 

- Air conditioning (cold/heat) 

- Coffee table and chair 

- Floor lamp

- Sockets and charge ports

- Bay window 

- Private shower and toilet cubicle with toiletries 



The surroundings:

- Barbecue stove 

- Sink 

- Picnic tables 

- Fire pits with wooden seats 

- Hammocks 


We love this private space we have so much! While adults are barbecuing and getting dinner ready, kids took our torch and explore around the campsite. They won’t be allowed to leave Sai Yuen, so it’s safe for them to roam around by themselves. And while Mr and myself are reading by the chair outside our tent, kids find ways to entertain themselves with the hammocks, sticks, leaves and broom! Exactly what kids should be doing! 


For extra activity, we did paid to join the monkey climbing again! I was about to cry seeing K overcoming her fear and self-doubt; taking one steps a time, wanting to give up, then suck it up and keep pushing for forward till she finally ring the bell !  Also, the next day, we went Cheung Po Chai Cave and Po Yue Wan for a short walk before check out at 1130. 




For detailed information on Sai Yuen, such as other tents choices, activities, how to get there etc, do refer to my previous post at

Note: we brought our ingredients for barbecue, you could order from them or get yours from the market just 20-25 mins away.

Hiking : Tsuen Wan to Sha Tin

Even though we enjoying having friends around, we always make times for just the four of us. And we love hiking as a family. It is a bonding experience and allow us to exercise together. Hiking motivates kids to be active and teaches them to appreciate the nature. Family hike is usually on a Sunday. We started at Tsuen Wan’s Shing Mun Country Park. Once arrived at the starting point, turn right and continue walking on paved road (watch out for cars), it’s anti-clockwise along the reservoir. Walk along Wilson-trail sec 7, the reservoir is on your left, until you reach a T point where your left is a bridge. Take the stairs on your right towards the paved road, then turn left to continue walking. You will be crossing a bridge, and it marks the beginning of a more challenging hike. From the bridge, it’s mostly slopes, all the way towards the other hills to Shatin. After the first slope at a junction, there the only cubicle toilets. I suggest to take a break. There’s a signboard, continue...

High Island Reservoir East Dam (萬宜水庫東壩)

A couple of months ago, I planned on an easy scenery walk with kids and their friends. We left home right after school, only managed to grab a bite on the way to Sai Kung. There are plenty of hiking trails waiting for us in Sai Kung but this time, we go for the easiest route, just a short visit to the East Dam.  It’s a reservoir formed in 1978, known for the volcanic rock columns and anchor shape sea barrier(錨形防波提), a breakwater. There’s public toilets right at the entrance to High Land Reservoir East Dam, along there’s information on volcanic rocks and pavilion. It’s concrete or asphalt pavements all the way down to the sea cave which is proof of coastal erosion (海蝕洞).  On your way down to the breakwater, there’s a gigantic wall of volcanic rocks, which is the hexagonal rocks columns! Its a 140 millions year old volcanic history. Along the way you passed the road with sea barrier (my suggestion is to spend time here on your way out), hexagonal volcanic rocks on your right a...

MLP Friendship Carnival

I received many message from friends in March on news and information regarding Hong Kong first My Little Pony Friendship Carnival at AIA Vitality Park. Friends sending to me knowing K is a big fan of the ponies for over a year now. To avoid the crowd, we made arrangements to go after school on 29th,  with 2 of her "after school play buddies".  Obviously K and Tong are the little fans of MLP, both adores Twilight Sparkle (the purple one) most.  Him wasn't interested in ponies but had fun with the activities. Entrance fees comes with $20 to be spent at the game booths. 7 free activities to collect stickers for prize drawing. The only charging activities (beside food and drinks booths) are face painting and specially printed photo with characters. Anyway, the ponies are coming out on stage to take pictures with kids and adults, I really don't see necessity to pay for it 🤭 K and her friends enjoyed the carnival. It's small but  definitely worth the money. We spent 2...
