It all started with Math who REALLY wanted to hike in the New Territories. So he selected a section on the Wilson Trail and off we went.  

The section started in a village and with 3 big dogs barking at us because we were stepping on their territory. My instinct was to turn around and run as fast as I could. But Math caught my hand and told me to NEVER turn my back to dogs. We slowly backed off (I was sure one of the dogs would jump right to my face and bite it off) and decided to hike another section of the trail.

To Math's joy, we saw monkeys (his favorite). A LOT OF THEM. They were mostly close to wastebins searching for food. We even saw FAMILIES with mama, papa and baby :)

And this, you'll never believe it. We crossed the path of WILD cows. (Now you know I'm a city girl.) We saw them walking one after the another. After a couple, I'm like "Math, where's the owner? There's no one following them". To that, he responded "He/She must be slowly walking behind."

We then met some older hikers and I asked them if the cows belonged to them. They said "You're not from Hong Kong eh? They are like monkeys, wild. No one owns them" I was so amazed I kep asking questions such as "Where do they sleep? What do they eat?" Anyhow, while I was amazed by the wild cows, they were amazed by how small knowledge I have.

Moreover, Math and I finally understood where do the big poops (and I mean gigantic) along the road come from. 

even a calf!!! omg, so cute :)

It was our longest hike so far: 4 hours, 10 km and a lot of fun!
