Stanley Market Road

This is my new street address, Stanley Market Road, and I LOVE IT! I haven’t taken a moment to catch my breath since we’ve moved in and reflect on how much I love my new home. (My parents arrived moments after the move-in date, then Elle arrived, and now Kevin’s folks are here–yes, come visit!) Granted living in Chung Hom Kok was also very nice, but living on the main promenade of Stanley is so much better. The throngs of people that come on the weekends don’t phase me and the thousands of folks that have just passed through for Chinese New Year didn’t bothered me a bit. Of course it makes sense for them to visit this little market on the south side of the island. There are sidewalk cafés lining the promenade, both a plaza and a market filled with any shopper’s delights, plus the sea just sparkling alongside it all day long. Meanwhile, I just sit at my 3rd floor window on the roundabout and watch people waving to those that catch my eye. Even though it’s super busy here, any time we want to leave we are going against traffic, so we can always easily catch a bus or simply remain with the masses and enjoy this stunning little neighborhood–my neighborhood on Stanley Market Road.
