Friday, June 20, 2008 It has been 17 years since i last visited Hong Kong. I was only a little kid when I previously went there... all i remember was the Ocean park. After sooo long, I made sure i'm going to walk through Hong Kong like no tommorow...
Day1: 8 June 2008 Flew off to Hk on Jetsatar at 6.15am from Changi terminal 1 with my mum, dad, little bro and my buddy, Suling. 4 hrs was hard to pass when u are cramped to a seat with limited leg space. however, my eagerness to reach HK outweighs all the discomfort. We took the hotel shuttle bus to Shamrock hotel located at jorden (somewhere in between TST and Yau Ma Tin)... Lovely hotel... excellent service... They even offered to do a free upgrading of rooms for us due the inconvenience of the renovation ^-^ After settling down, we set off to to temple street to have our lunch... we walked all the way to look for Mido Cafe which was highly recommended.. Turned out that it was closed due to the dumpling festival. So we decided to eat at a nearby cha cheng teng. We had wan tan noodle, fishball noodle... love the milk tea and almond drink... Yummy ^-^ Next we walked along the streets of granville, kimberley, Cameron in tsim sha tsui. Along the way, there were lots of warehouse sale selling cheap and fashionable outfits... I bought a grey vest from one of the shops at Hk$80. Only disadvantage of these shops is that they dun allow shoppers to try on their products.. There were also lots of shops selling beautiful products... hahaha.. ai mei de wo decided to grab hold of a box of facial mask too.... by 8pm, we made our way to Avenue of Stars.. I was amaze by the night scenery... The laser show "A symphony of lights" wasnt that fantastic due to the cloud that was blurring out the laser... After that we took a cab to Temple street as my mum couldnt wait to try out the da pai tong (roadside hawker) After walking up and down along the street, we coudnt find the wuloo da pai tong that my mum saw on HK drama. After asking a local uncle, he brought us to this stall that he claimed to serve the best food in temple street... Well, it wasnt too bad.. but too salty... After that we continued to shop the temple street selling lots of stuff like toys, bags, necklaces , t-shirt, footwears.... and even sex toy!!!!! At the end of the day, I bought a bag and BAPE t shirt.. Fulfilling already... ^-^ YueN signing off... Windy nite.. |
