Hongkong

Got the ferry tickets and Hongkong, here we come!


We took the ferry to Kowloon and from there took a cab down to our hotel.

Cityview Hotel, Hongkong
Address: 23 Waterloo Road Yau Ma Tai Kowloon Hongkong
Check in: 13 Nov 2010, Check out: 16 Nov 2010

Upon checking in, we decided to have some food before walking to the Avenue of Stars.

Tried the 鱼蛋 and also the 鸡蛋仔.

We waited for show, the Symphony of Lights @8pm.
Queue for the cuttlefish while waiting for the show to start.

Dessert @许留山 before going back to the hotel.

Day 04
Woke up slightly later today @ard 9am. Had our breakfast nearby the hotel before going to Central for the clothes @H&M and the cameras @Stanley Street.

Clothes @H&M are just not our cup of tea and the shops @Stanley Street are not opened on sun. Real disappointment, we took the MTR down to Shau Kei Wan to have a feel of the 'Ding Ding' Hongkong tram.

Had our lunch before taking the tram.

Colorful 'Ding Ding' Hongkong trams and per trip is only HKD2 in regards of distance.

After a ride on the 'Ding Ding' tram, we went to take the Peak Tram.

And visited the Madame Tussauds.

We had so much fun and we bought a photo tt they took for us.

Day 05
We went again to Stanley Street earlier in the morning ard 8am for Dim Sum and also to get my instax films.

A place for the bosses to gather in the morning for breakfast. Lol.

We reach Ngong Ping 360 @10pm sharp, the time that they opened due to our tight schedule today.

We bought 1 way crystal cabin and 1 way standard cabin. The crystal cabin trip was really something different.

Big Buddha.

We had our vegetarian lunch @Po Lin Monastery. And again, we bought another photo tt they took for us in the cabin.

From there, we took the MTR down to the Sunny Bay station.
and took the disney train to the awaited Disneyland.

We went to queue up to take photos with the disney characters. Such a long queue. We only to take with the 3 different characters. Sad.

After exploring and taking some rides in the Fantasyland, plus a little of the Adventureland, which we took the Jungle Cruise, the closing is getting nearer.

We did our shopping and some night shots of the Disneyland, then went to take a look at the photos taken before finding a good location to view the fireworks display. We ended up with buying 2 more photos @Disneyland which added up to a total of 4 photos for our whole trip.

Day 06
Is time to go back to Singapore. Never failed to make full use of our time, we woke up at ard 8am. Packed our luggage and did an early check-out. Left our luggage with the hotel and went for our final shopping.


The MTR shots of the trip. Lol.
We took the Airport Express shuttle from the hotel to the Airport Express Service tt is available @Kowloon station. From there, we check in our luggage and we are again free to shop around. Wooohooo! So cool.
Sadly, we took the train to the Hongkong International Airport and Singapore, We are back!
Lastly, all thanks to the Lonely Planet Book that provides us with most of the help for the whole trip.
Looking forward to more and more trips. Hehehe.
