Hung Hom Ferry Mystery

Don't worry, the Hung Hom ferry system isn't that much of a maze. Most routes are pretty straightforward, especially if you're just going between Hung Hom and the usual tourist spots. Just look at the signs – they usually have English translations, and there are maps at the piers. The key is to know where you want to go. Before you hop on any ferry, check your destination on Google Maps or a similar app; that'll show you which pier you need and the likely ferry route. If all else fails, just ask someone at the ferry pier – most people are happy to help, especially if you try your Cantonese. (Even a few words go a long way!) You'll be fine. Enjoy the ride!

Nah, it's probably just old building quirks. Hong Kong's got a lot of those, especially in older schools. Creaky floors, dodgy wiring...that sort of thing. I've never heard anything super spooky about Bishop Ford, though. Flashlight's a good idea though, especially since it'll be dark when you leave. Might need it to find your way to the car park! Don't worry too much, enjoy the play.

Yeah, that makes sense. Old buildings are definitely full of surprises! I guess I let my imagination run away with me a bit. Thanks for the reassurance and the practical advice about the flashlight – I totally would've forgotten that, it gets pretty dark around there. Looking forward to the play now, all the mystery talk nearly put me off!
