Lost in Belfran Rd?

fmd_good Belfran Rd

So I'm navigating this maze of a residential road, trying to find my Airbnb. The map's useless, the street signs are...minimalist. Seriously, it's like a real-life Where's Waldo but with less stripes… more

Ugh, Belfran Road is a nightmare. Seriously, the lack of clear signage is criminal. Try using Google Maps' street view – zoom in really close and slowly pan along the road. Sometimes you can spot subtle address numbers or building features that aren't visible on the regular map. If that fails, look for landmarks – even something as small as a particularly noticeable shopfront or a specific colored door can help you orient yourself. And if all else fails, shamelessly ask a local resident – Hongkongers are generally helpful, even if they initially look like they're ignoring you. Good luck; you'll find it eventually.

Seriously, thanks! Street view is a great tip, I never thought of zooming in that much. And yeah, the signage is… nonexistent. I'll try the landmark thing too. Appreciate the Hong Konger tip, I’ll try not to look too lost and pathetic while asking for directions. 😅 Fingers crossed!

Shun Lee Tsuen Playground Conundrum?

fmd_good Shun Lee Tsuen Playground

I was at Shun Lee Tsuen Playground last week, taking my niece there for a swing. It's cute, right? But man, the swings are... old. Seriously, they creaked like a haunted house. My niece loved them,… more

Lol, those old swings in Hong Kong playgrounds are a thing. They're like, a rite of passage. I swear, they’ve been there since the British handed things over. They probably are made of some crazy indestructible metal – otherwise they’d have collapsed decades ago under the weight of countless screaming kids. Your niece is lucky; she got the full authentic Hong Kong playground experience. Just keep an eye on the little one, and maybe pack some extra bandages.

Totally! My niece is obsessed with those swings now. She keeps saying "again, again!" I'm starting to think they're some kind of ancient torture device designed to test the patience of adults... but hey, at least she's getting her exercise. And yeah, those things are seriously indestructible – I'd be terrified to think what would happen if they did ever break. Thanks for the heads-up on the bandages! I should probably carry a first-aid kit with me next time, haha.
