As in the other two HKDCs, we are to have a lunch at the Peak restaurant, a historic site at the top of the mountain behind Hong Kong. We head there and again meet the other colleagues. The girls go off shopping for a while. We are forced to have a small drink while waiting for the commencement.

As per usual, JV scores most of the green stuff. Selena contributes some of her Duck to my cause – ‘coz I like Duck.

As said above, I found the menu a little disappointing compared with previous meals at the Peak. Still the curry went very well with the wines which was a very good point. The weather was not very nice which meant two things (1) View to below was poor (2) we had to sit inside, same table as a couple of years ago.

That night we again join Roy & Selena at the Happy Hours for snacks and drinks. We are joined by Ed Davis, formerly of Graystone wines and a frequest participant in the Melbourne Duck Crawls. A good guy, too.
