I grew up in Happy Valley and took trams frequently with my family. As a child I loved running upstairs and leaning my head against the window to admire the view. Of course my parents would ask me to watch out but I have such a good memory of that, the fresh air blowing on my face.

Eventually my parents also allowed me to go on the tram by myself, it has always been safe, with pretty much one direct route, you could not get lost. I take my children on the tram now as well.

The tram is great for short distances, but I love to take it to work and when I am tired or stressed sometimes, an hour’s ride is really relaxing. It really is a piece of old Hong Kong, when friends visit, I always tell them it’s a great way to see the sights.
