Oh my, this one was HARD! It takes courage to get the cache protected by the fish. TFTc!
Found. The most time spent was waiting the muggles standing right in front of the cache to leave. Btw I never noticed there was such fish...TFTC!
Quick find on third visit. First two times the location was muggle central but today it was a quick search and a find by geo kid o.
Great fountain.

I was amazed that there was such a nice fountain in the middle of the walk way. Take around 10 minutes to get the cache as we need to poke our hands in order to find it. Miss the spot on the first trial and then when I try to search again, my fingers touched something round and smooth which is totally different from the surrounding material. TFTC, a good place to relax after a long walk from TST east. :0
A difficult one even the hint was clear. Need to be patient and lucky to find it.
Cache was shifted a bit clockwise, replaced it to fit the hint.

Easy-ish find thanks to the hint, but at least ten metres away from posted coordinates according to my Garmin.
More like, "Where's My Ferry Godmother". I could have used her to help find this one. It was late, I was wet, my legs / feet were sore. I wasn't searching with much desire. I was already fixated on the finish line (my hotel).
Well this one is tough I was about to give up even on the second time but then I found it tftc from Germany
Good luck on the first of the Ferry series, no luck on all the following. Too many muggles around on a sunday afternoon 
. But had a nice walk along the Harbour front, thanks for that!
. But had a nice walk along the Harbour front, thanks for that!Argh!! GZ was occupied by high school kids still in their school uniform making out!! I checked two fish and nothing found. The third fish was where they were making out!! I walked around and took pictures with my flash but that only stopped their intimate moments and didn't drive them away!
Very easy to find with the hint, but don't trust the coordinates and the map. TFTC!
TFTC!
Took me a while and I think the cords may be a little off but the hint is spot on!

Some pictures in front of the beautiful fountain et voila.
Hey, Take care, somebody is watching you, suspect guy, from the restaurant terraces.

Staying a night in Hong Kong due to a delayed flight so I missed the last ferry. Grabbed the closest cache before I crash for the night. I"ll be back in a couple weeks for more. TFTC. Chris
It took me a little while to find the fish, but once I did reading back on the logs helped me grab this one. tftc
Looked for a really long time in all three spots. I have the distinct feeling that I was completely missing something. Gar.

Caching buddy Airlog decided she needed to go wading in the fountain THEN look for cache. Hint enormously useful.
Two of us and three places to search. Luckily one of us started out in the right spot. Tricky to retrieve, but we did it. TFTC
[089] It is easy find, but the hide is really good!

You might like to check your GPS as your coordinates are often really off 
. Without the hint we would have thus been completely lost with this cache. Naturally we fist went to the zero spot, tried to look around there as we spotted no promising hides, checked the hint and were led to a totally different location following it. Much nicer one also indeed, thanks for showing this to us. The posh hotel guests are following cachers here

On a holiday trip to Oz/NZ via HK, and have only just had the opportunity to create this log.
Really wanted this cache as we were staying at the adjacent hotel. However it did take us 2 days to locate. TFTC

Found on a nice walk along the promenade. One of my few finds here in Hong Kong. The GPS was off at any cache around 20 Meters, especially with a lot of muggels around it was hard to search everywhere witthout getting suspicious.
Found this one one the second attempt on my why back on the promenade. THe hint helped a lot.
THanks you!

Hint was helpful, but after checking a few spots re-read the logs and they were even more helpful! Thanks for the series, without it we would never have come to this area. TFTC!
My first cache found without hint =)
Nice place!
However my phone is unable to scan the QR code at night.

Wow, 5th found of the day, never know this place before, shirohk grab the cache in hand very quickly. TFTCSL.
with the hint and luck its the first place i checked and the cache is in hand TFTC.
I loved the hint for this one, and picked the right place first time! Thanks
Nice statue! Hint helped a lot in finding the cache. Luckily no muggles in sight, if not behind the windows of nearby buildings. TFTC!
Found it with Yeah Hao. Yes, we thought too much and searched the unreachable parts thoroughly. Indeed, it is much easier than expected.
The GZ is a nice secret place. It seems like a kind of Feng Shui decoration for Li's kingdom. I will never visit it if not playing geocaching. Thanks for bringing me here!

I was finding the GZ on the other side of the bushes when Tapelo found this cache. Nice sculture nearby. TFTC!
On my second visit on GZ I could identify the fish. Where were my eyes?
With the hint then easy to grab.
Merci

An early morning walk from To Kwa Wan to Hung Hom and also enoy a breakfast at the McDonalds.
this was the first one, no muggles around. The place was smelling of pee so I was not too happy in feeling around. Luckily I always carry around disinfectend gel or wet wipes.
After checki g the hint, the cache was found. TFTC.

This one took a while but I had time to search. It was the last cache for today. Let's see what caches can be found in Shenzhen.
GPS location was up putting us in an area not matching the clue so after moving to somewhere which sorta makes more sense we began searching but after a pretty good go nothing
Disappointed not finding this one to complete the series. Will return for a more thorough search.
