see the garden, smell the herbs

There's organic garden called Herboland near Hung Shing Ye Beach which displays variety of local and otherwise herbs, vegetables, fruits and a few rabbits. All nicely organized and pleasant with decorative bottles with names of the plants by each bed so that you can learn on the varieties. Owners are friendly and will invite you for cup of organic tea (which you pay) - in their open air 'bar' with wooden benches and table. Nice setting all around. Probably you can buy their crops but you pay in cash only; would be nice to cook or steam some of them but that's lil bit difficult when you're staying in hotels.

Worth a stop on your Lamma walk through the Island.

A yellow setting sun spilled a neat golden streak on the calm waters of the South China sea... It was a moment that made my all-day hike well worth the effort...

Lo So Shing Village

This is just to show you a typical village at Lamma, a quiet Lo So Shing looks like a good place for the oldies....
