Heys,
I'm back. From HK.
It's super fun.
Went to disneyland.
Enjoyed myself there.
Ok. Let me describe my trip there.
But let me warn ya first. This post will be super long.
Haha.
OK. I went to the airport on monday.
Shopped around. I mean, window shopping.
took some pics with mickey there.
At terminal 3.
Ironic right?
Going to HK disneyland already
still take pic with mickey at airport.
Haha.
Ok. Then we board the plane.
Dinner's included.
Guess what we had?
Actually, i sort of forgot what we had.
Bread, drink, fish, vege, salad(i guess),
ohohohoh. And Kings ice cream!
Yum. Haha.
And i watched boys over flowers on board.
By the time we reached HK,
it's like, 10plus.
Then we went to get our luggage.
Talking about luggage, I tell you,
my luggage is new one ok. And it's pink.
When i took my luggage, I found a lot of scratches and markings on it!
Very xin1 tong4. And i spent 1/2 hour trying to wash off the marks.
Unfortunately, some can't be washed off.. Aw man...
Ok. Then we went out to get a cab.
The weather there is cool.
Unlike singapore.
The weather there is like switching on the air con in SG.
We took the cab to Kowloon Hotel.
We stayed there frm mon midnight to fri morning.
But the room is quite small.
Got bathtub. Haha.
Anyways, i was too tired so i took a short bath and went to sleep.
Next day, we went to the peak.
Took taxi up.
Actually there's a tram up.
But it's diagonally 45degrees.
Scary.
It's cool and windy there.
At the peak.
Walked up the peak. And down.
Then went into the shopping centre.
Into the souvenir shop. And came out empty handed.
Stuff too ex.
Then we ate lunch. After that we went back.
Then we went to the ladies matket and temple street.
Took the MTR (like SG's MRT)
A lot of stuff there. It's like our night market.
There can bargain.
So singaporeans(no offence but aunties) can go there to express their flair for bargaining.
Haha.
We walked for very long then go back.
By the time we reached the hotel, it's super late.
And cold.
Anyways, i was very tired.
And to think i still watched obama's talk til past midnight
and my dad chased me to sleep. Haha.
The next day, we went to wan tai xin temple.
To pray.
Then we went to a nearby shopping centre.
Bought some tidbits, sweets.
And my mum bought some chi herbs stuff.
Saw some HK students.
Their uniform are different from ours.
Obvious. Haha.
Anyways, the girls, their tie,
they tuck the tie in their pinafore.
Like what we would do when we have art on
mondays and we have to wear our sch tie.
Ya. Looks odd. Haha.
And the students there,
their sock wear high high one.
When here,
we're trying to keep our socks as low as possible.
Haha. How different.
After shopping, we took the MTR to sha tin.
The nearby shopping centre.
Outside the shopping centre is snoopy world.
took some pics.
snoopy's cute. Haha.
We ate crystal jade there.
Quite cheap u know.
And the food's nice. Haha.
On wednesday, we went to shenzhen, china.
Took MTR to lok wu and went thru the customs.
Oh. And we have to fill in this arrival and departure card.
And behind the departure card,
they addressed foreigners as ALIENS!
Haha. So we were aliens when we go to china. Haha.
Anyways, we went shopping at the shopping centre there.
Can bargain for the stuff too. Haha.
But it's real scary there.
Once the people dragged u into their store,
it's hard to leave the store w/o buying anything.
And they will pester ya.
Another thing is that
people are allowed to smoke in the shopping centre.
Everywhere we go, we'll always face some smoke.
I think i'll die of 2nd hand smoking if i really spend the whole day there.
We bought stuff there, after bargaining of course.
I shall not tell ya the scenerios of my parents bargaining.
It's just, quite scary, the whole thing. Shall not say anymore.
Anyways, we bought stuff like handbags, a wallet, shoes, socks
and almost an iphone.
When we were tired,
we decided to go back to HK.
After the scary chasing and smoking there.
Oh. Did i tell ya about the no U-turn sign?
There's this no U-turn sign at the arrival hall there.
I was like huh? I thought u-turns are only for cars?
Why ppl also have u turn one. Haha.
On thursday, we went up to the giant buddha.
Took the MTR to Lai Jing.
Then took bus up.
And i tell you,
the driver is like some F1 driver.
Drive until so fast.
And the sharp turns, turn so fast.
And the speed should be 50km/h,
i think he drove til 100 can.
Super fast lah.
We drove past hills and rivers.
Then by the time we reached the top of
the hill, the buddha there,
i felt very giddy.
My bro too.
So we ate some orange peel.
And we felt better.
We went to pray and stuff.
Then we went to eat vegetarian food.
I must say that it's nice.
Haha.
Then after that, we went to this souvenir shop.
Saw this confucius keychain.
My mum almost bought it
but it was too ex.
So never buy. Haha.
Then we went back.
Took the bus again.
But i didn't look out.
I looked down. Haha.
So not that giddy when i got off the bus.
Ya. Then we went shopping in this shopping centre.
Went into shops like nike, puma, new balance and adidas.
But didn't buy anything also. Haha.
Then we went to macs.
We ate ice cream.
Bro ate grape flavour,
I ate raspberry flavour.
And mine is nicer than his. Haha.
Then we went to a supermarket.
We bought 4 bottles of chilli. (do u believe that?)
and some cup noodles.
Oh. We bought 3 cups of hello kitty cup noodles.
But we finished them off on sat.
Sad. Didn't bring back.
It's really cute lah.
But the seasoning is already added inside
And when we ate it, it's super salty
that we kept adding water. Haha.
On fri, we ate the cup noodles for breakfast
cos we're lazy to go out. Haha.
So we ate already then we went out to the markets again.
We ate lunch.
Then we went to the market
bought scarf, 3 of them, some more souvenirs and some stuff.
Bought the keychains for friends and stuff. Ya.
Then we shopped til afternoon.
Then we took taxi to Disneyland.
We checked into the hotel.
The hotel's nice.
Looked grand.
Like some royal family live kind.
Haha.
Then we went to disneyland for awhile.
And had our dinner there.
Walked around the souvenir shop.
We walked around til the disneyland management
"invited" us to enjoy a 5mins fireworks show.
It's really nice.
Using the hologram they gaved us,
we watched the fireworks
and there was some pattern
which i don't think i'll say here.
It's meant to be a surprise.
Haha.
The next day we went to disneyland
and walked around again.
This time, i bought a shirt.
Yay.
After that, we went back to the hotel
to collect our luggage and
took a taxi to the airport.
Ok. I shall stop here first.
I'll continue this another day.
Got to go. Bye. :)
