The weather is getting cool these days. Last Sunday was such a wonderful day. I went hiking with my husband. Although it was our third time to go hiking on this mountain, we still very much enjoyed. Because it was so chill when you were on top of the mountain and felt the wind on your body.

This time we started from a different entrance. We walked 2 hours to the top of the mountain, it was not really hard.

When we reached the Ngong Ping Plateau, at first sight were some colorful parachutes. Some were flying high in the sky, some were landing on the plateau and some players were strapping on the parachutes. There are a lot of small houses down below the mountain. Sometimes, the parachute was out of control than landed on the road beside the house, it’s very dangerous because many cars were passing on the road. The residents always complain about that. 

We took photos there, looked up to parachutes in the sky, chill out on the grass and enjoyed our food. Some people were camping and dogs, children were playing there.

After take a rest, we decided to reach the summit of the mountain. We never get to there before. It was more challenging in this part, even though just took 20 mins to reach the summit. It was a very steep slope so we climbed up the big stone with both hands and feet. Hikers there said hello to each other and kindly reminded you to be careful.

We were extremely happy to reached the top. We took a rest then went ahead to climb down to the opposite side, it was more terrible on this side, because there are too many small stones that were easy to fall down. I step on the stone very slowly and carefully. My husband looked at me and said, it’s easy, don’t worry. And I said, no It’s quite hard, I felt that I almost fell off. I sat on the stone and moved slowly. 

Fortunately, we climbed down the mountain and had afternoon tea. We are very tired but very enjoyable.
