planning a 'combi' trip

After 'studying' the map 'intensely' last night ;) , I came up with a 'combination' trip for our next trip.
Tai O > Man Cheung Po > Lung Tsai Ng Yuen > Tai O.
Details:
We'll take a bus to Tai O, walk southward passing the old Tai O saltpan farm? to Nam Chung village. From Nam Chung village, we'll follow the path that hugs the coastline and walk southward, passing by Nga Ying Kok campsite, continue walking ahead. Between distance post L060 and L061, there is a footpath that will lead us to Man Cheung Po. An alternative way to get to Man Cheung Po is to trek up the Shui Lo Cho stream after distance post L061 (the stream runs almost parallel to the footpath, but not quite, I should say running in the same direction?) We'll give the Shui Lo Cho stream a miss and take this short-cut footpath instead. It will save us a lot of time and energy to enjoy the Man Cheung Po waterfalls later. (The climb up Shui Lo Cho stream is difficult!). At the end of footpath, we'll reached a big pool named Heaven's pool, followed by the 70m high Man Cheung Po main waterfall and then the Nose Mucous waterfall. After the Nose Mucous waterfall, we'll take a footpath and continue our hike to the Man Cheung Po campsite and then to Lung Tsai Ng Yuen and after that it's back to Tai O.
Sounds like a pretty 'relaxing' hike doesn't it? I can't wait to do it! Let's pray for lovely weather, strength and Daddy God's protection on this trip. :) Ciao!
