HK Trip 10-13 Oct 06
09 Oct 06
Kah Wee and Theodric came to my house at about 10.30pm to stay overnight.
10 Oct 06
We woke up at a freakingly early 4am. While we were still trying to nudge our way up from the bed, Weihan is already waiting outside my house with his dad's cab!! We rushed to get all our stuff ready and hopped on to the cab.
While deciding whether to eat at mac or bk, we took a stupid picture of ourselves!
Here we go on our way to HK after a bite at the 24h McDonald's in the departure hall. As we were on a budget airline - JetStar Asia, we had pretty much nothing to do onboard other than to sleep! =) So we basically carried on our favourite activity all the way to HK. The rather uncomfortable small leg space we had made us wake up in between our sleep, oblivious to what's happening in the aircraft around us. However, that did not bother us too much and we arrived at the airport safely. A rather unfortunate thing happened as the bus which is supposed to take us to the airport from the Jetstar parking lot had broken down. Thus, another bus was activated. While waiting, we took the chance to get into the Captain's seat! Take a look.... Now you know why I always say Jetstar people are friendly!
Upon taking our luggage, we took a cab straight down to the famous Buddha statue in HK, which is located on Lantau Island. Wow was the way there long ---- we spent HK$150 (S$30) just to get to that place. Well, it could have cost per person HK$88 for 2 way trip if we had chosen the cable car instead. Anyway, we had to walk a flight of "God-knows-how-many-steps-there-are" steps to get to the Buddha statue. By the time we were up there, our legs were shagged till "wobbly"! I wouldn't say it's worth the climb as all you could do up there was to see the scenery around the Buddha!
We took the chance to go to some nearby temples to pray and went to walk around Ngong Ping Village. There wasn't much there except for some shops selling food and souvenirs. We were of course pretty disappointed with such a "sian" place amidst the hooha surrounding it.
We headed down to Tung Chung , a nearby MTR station, again by the way of cab. There was a shopping centre there and we settled for lunch before walking around. While shopping, we observed that there's such a thing called "Outlets" stores eg, Levi's Outlet, Adidas Outlet where you get to buy their stuff which have already been phased out from the original stores. Thus, the items there may be priced lower to attract you to buy. After about an hour or so, we left the place empty-handed and rode on the MTR to our hotel - Ramada Hotel, which is located on Hong Kong Island. As we were taking a rest there, KahWee's HK friend was making his way to our hotel to join us. He brought us to Mongkok, a rather famous Night Market area, the place where Woman Street is, via the tram and MTR.
Had our dinner by eating the street food. We shopped around, looking for great bargains and sure we did! It was a tiring walk as the shopping belt was really long. However, it was worthwhile as we got our fair share of goods. It all ended off at about 11pm as we proceeded back to the hotel.
Day 2
We woke up at a modestly early 9am and searched around the hotel area for some quick breakfast bites. A restaurant boasting numerous dishes of cheap dim sum caught our eye. Indeed, the prices of the dim sum were quite on the low end and we feasted on several dishes. They tasted about the same as those kind you find in Singapore but with a price that's headed southwards.
With that, we hurried to the highly-anticipated Ocean Park!! The entrance fee was an astounding HK$185 but it was reasonable considering the fun we had and the time spent there.
Saw a real panda for the first time in my life... Gosh were they cute!!
The long cable car ride we had to take to get to another part of ocean park...
One portion of Ocean Park... Filled with several rides.. Including the 360degree Dinosaur roller coaster...
Dolphins performing...
It was almost 6pm. We took a cab down to the MTR station - Central (something like Singapore's City Hall) and boarded a train to Tsim Sha Shui. Avenue of Stars was located there and we managed to catch 5-min snippet of the famous laser show. I would say it's quite a let-down as the laser show wasn't as nice as expected and in fact it was pretty dull with the lasers turning here and there not to the tune of the music. It could have been done much better. Nevertheless, we took some quick pics of the area.
As it was still early, we strolled down to the nearby shopping belt for another buying frenzy!!
Day 3
Reveille : 8am
We met up with Kah Wee's friend who brought us to a renowned restaurant at Central MTR Station to have our daily breakfast fix - dim sum!! The variety and price were about the same as the one we went to the previous day. It was equally delicious and our stomachs were definitely bloated after that =)
We had originally planned to crash HK Uni's lecture which starts at 10.30am. But Theodric, Weihan and mi decided not to as it was quite meaningless. So we headed to the nearby arcade to play Time Crisis 4 (Mind you it's cheap, just HK$4 per game) and shop around. Meanwhile, Kah Wee went ahad with his friend to HK Uni.
We met up at the Victoria Peak bottom at 11.30am. This destination was originally phased off from the itinerary but we were tasked to buy a Hard Rock Cafe T-Shirt for RSM so we so-called had no choice but to go (Hard Rock Cafe is located at the Peak). Anyway, we didn't regret it as we experienced what taking a tram up to the Peak is like.
As expected, the view from the top of the Peak was marvellous. We grabbed the chance to soak in the natural atmosphere as cool air blew from the bottom of the hill up.
After managing to source for Hard Rock, we made our way downhill.
The four of us in the tram on the way down...
WeiHan caught catching a short nap while on the way down!! Who's little finger is that... Hmm...
We went on a shopping madness once again, this time round spanning a bigger area - The whole stretch between 3 MTR stations - Mongkok, Yau Ma Tei and Jordon. In the process, we witnessed a scene whereby HK police nabbed several prostitutes and brought them into a police van. The number was as high as 20. We had initially thought a filming of movie was taking place as there were TV crews around with so many onlookers. Little did we expect to see such a commotion during such a short stay there. At the end of our shopping extravaganza, we "sneaked" into a massage parlour enquiring about the price of decent massage. They quoted it at HK$350 for 45min, including sex. We asked again if it could be just pure massage and not with sex included, and they replied "It's ok without sex, the girls will also be fine with being just naked". We left the place immediately.
Day 4
Reveille: 6.30am
Went to had dim sum breakfast at a restaurant just next door to our hotel, before going back to take our barang barang and hopped on to a direct bus to the airport.
This HK Trip ended off at the blink of an eye. Hope to be able to go overseas some time soon. The destination is not important, but the companion is. And I must say I enjoyed myself thoroughly throughout these 4 short but sweet days. ^_^
