First we took the scenic 680 bus from Shatin through Tate's Cairn and around the harbor to North Point. Then by bus and taxi to the Museum of Coastal Defence.
Hannah and I played in the tunnels while Granny and Grandad looked at the exhibits. And needless to say there was a detailed exhibition on Japanese aggression and atrocities.
We enjoyed the view of Lei Yue Mun which as the narrowest part of the harbour. We recalled that this is the main path for Qi flowing into Hong Kong Island from China (link).

After the museum we took a long ride on the tram across Hong Kong Island from Shau Kei Wan to Central. This was Granny's #2 request which she'd missed out last time.
The weather was nice and cool and we had an interesting glide through town.
And then our holiday was over.
Granny and Grandad flew back home on Monday and I reported back to duty at work.
