X'mas day was spent relatively quiet. We went out to see my cousin Justin practice soccer, and have dimsum at Taiko. I saw a really big fish. Afterward, we went for some shopping at UNI before head home.

After a short stop at home, I head out to meet up my buddy Mike and his wife Lisa (Why most of my friends are now married?). We shop around Time Square and Causeway Bay, and have dessert together.

I was home at supper time to join the X'mas dinner at home. It was a great meal of mixing East and West. We have Turkey and sushi on the table, as well as salad, pasta, and soup.

I fell asleep on the couch after the meal, while my cousin watching Beauty and the Beast in Cantonese.... sounds weird.

Boxing day was spend on opening gifts first thing in the morning, of course. We have a light breakfast and head to Wan Chai Gap for a hike to Aberdeen Upper Reservoir.

There is a BBQ area near the reservoir, I meet up with M and L for a BBQ organized by their friends. I have not been to a Hong Kong Style BBQ for so long, which charcoals are light up in a pit, and each person BBQ the food with a log fork. There are a lot of people and tons of good food. It's not your ordinary Hong Kong style BBQ. There are fatty chinese eel, big meaty fish, mushroom, japanese rice cake, veal ribs and many many other stuff. The BBQ is a marathon, go from noon to past 7pm. I ate and ate until I have to stop. But we still went for dessert and chat afterward.

27th was spend mostly shopping around and seeing my secondary school buddy Patrick and his family, as well as a few friends.
