Rachel's Travels...
On the Sunday we had a tour to the New Territories and Kowloon. First stop was to the temple of Dr Wong in Kowloon. He was a doctor who lived about 1600 years ago, but has now been made into a Buddha. Then we went into the New Territories which are so much greener than Hong Kong island and Kowloon. We went to visit a wishing tree. The idea is to write your wish on some paper with prayers on and these are attached to an orange. You then have to throw the orange and your wish and try to make it land on a tree branch - the higher up the better. I tried about three or four times but with no luck. My wish ended up going into the fire that was lit below the tree!!
We then visited a jade market before heading off to the airport. Only an 11 hour flight between me and Auckland
