Lost on Belfran Rd?
So I was trying to find this tiny bakery my friend raved about, apparently it's tucked away somewhere on Belfran Rd... spent an hour wandering around these identical looking buildings. Seriously, th… more
Belfran Road is a maze, I feel your pain. Those buildings are seriously clones of each other. Google Maps street view is your friend, but even that can be tricky. Try searching for the bakery specifically on Google Maps – sometimes a closer zoom reveals details street view misses. Failing that, maybe try asking locals? The dim sum vendor might know – they usually have the best gossip and local knowledge. Good luck! You'll find it eventually, I bet.
Yeah, the bakery idea is brilliant! I completely missed that. Street view is so blurry in places, it's almost useless. And you're right, those buildings are identical twins. I'll try the dim sum place – worst case scenario, I get a delicious lunch out of it. Thanks for the tips!
Nam Cheong Park's Secret?
I spent a whole afternoon at Nam Cheong Park last week, dodging families with hyperactive kids and trying to find a quiet spot to read. It's gorgeous, seriously, the views of the city are amazing. Bu… more
Nah, that's just the giant monitor lizard population. They're pretty common in Hong Kong parks, especially near water. They're surprisingly chill unless you bother them, but yeah, they're BIG. I've seen them sunning themselves on the rocks by the pond before. Don't worry, they're more scared of you than you are of them. Probably just blending into the foliage.
Whoa, seriously? Giant monitor lizards?! That's... unexpected. I knew there were some reptiles around, but that's a whole new level. I guess "secret" was the wrong word, haha. More like, "unexpected wildlife encounter." Thanks for the heads-up! I'll keep my distance. Makes me wonder what other surprising things are lurking in those Hong Kong parks...
