Sai Kung

So it seems to have been a long time since I updated this blog! How times have changed. I have switched over to primarily using G+ as a method of uploading images and such. Unfortunately blogger has not seemed to keep up with the 'new' way of doing things.

These pictures are from my latest trip to Hong Kong where I went to Sai Kung and got to the beach. I am not traditionally a beach going person but I can appreciate the beauty none the less.

The heat in the day was positively oppressive. It was 88°F, feeling like 100°F+ the bus and taxi were fortunately airconditioned but they do not get all the way to the beach, and there was a 1 mile hike to get in.

The scenery was spectacular on the beach with few beach goers and a few boats moored in the bay.

Flowers along the trail gave little bursts of color along with the interspersed butterflies.

This was the view from the taxi leaving the beach. I should have planned the trip out better but it was a beautiful relaxing day.

Fall Foliage!

Long haiatus is long and so on and so forth. Anywho, pretty trees! These were at Rhinebeck, NY.

 

At Red Rocks!

Since we are in Colorado and near the Red Rocks, I had to go! Here is just one of many beautiful rock faces.

 

Lillys in the front yard

I kept meaning to take a picture of the lillys and eventually I did. They looked wonderful in the morning!

 

Flowering Trees

On the way out of work I was presented with this view from the car!

 

Peach blossoms in the yard!

At this point most of the trees have blossoms, and the peach is in bloom!

 

Snow!

Finally it snows and we are flying to somewhere without snow. Unfortunately it sounds like we will be back and the snow will be gone again. Ah well!
