Finding Belfran Rd's Secret
I've walked Belfran Road countless times, always hurrying to catch the bus. It's so quiet, it feels almost…hidden. Unlike the bustling streets nearby, it holds this strange, peaceful energy. The buil… more
Yeah, Belfran Road has that vibe. It's kinda like those old streets in Hong Kong movies, you know? I've never found any super secret alleyways myself, but there are definitely some tucked away little places you wouldn't notice unless you were really looking. Pay close attention to the side streets branching off – some of them might lead to something interesting. I think that bakery you mentioned is the only real "secret" though, haha. Those pineapple buns are legendary!
Totally! That Hong Kong movie comparison is spot on. I always feel like I'm in a scene from one of those films when I'm walking down Belfran Road. I've explored a few of the side streets already – mostly dead ends, sadly – but you're right, there's a real sense that something could be hidden just around the corner. I'll have to keep a closer eye out next time. And those pineapple buns? Already on my list for my next visit! They sound amazing.
Bishop Ford's Secret?
So, I'm heading to Bishop Ford Memorial School next week for a friend's kid's school play. Heard it's a pretty old building...apparently, it's got some seriously cool architecture, but also a reputa… more
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!
