okay its been a long long long long time since ive blogged.
im back from hongkong! okay ive been back for like 1wk plus already. it was a good experience! and i really wna go overseas more often with friends or even on my own :) yixi was a gd travel mate :)
sadly, it was winter season in hk and i din manage to do alot of shopping. but then again, i got to wear my trench coat :D
i missssssss this ma la mian in mongkok so much though. i really wna eat it again >.<
so here's roughly what we did:
day1: yaumatei / get lost in mongkok day :D
just look at the streets of hk.. (its reli like in the tvb serials! :D) and there are so many (HUGE) jewelry shops, its impossible to actually avoid them -.- visited nu ren jie where i bargained feebly.. tried the shiok noodles.. we got lost though ahhaha.
day2: the tourist scam day....
zzz we went for this free city tour and got brought to scammish place.. the onli good part was repulse bay and lantau island cable car! :) pretty place really.
day3: disneyland!
okay disneyland is worth the HK$295 ticket. its a romantic place really :) the fireworks were so pretty. and though im no disney fanatic (no childhood! hahaha :P), i wna go visit other disneylands if i have the chance :)
day4: central!
a vastly different place from kowloon, with posh toilets in posh shopping malls. went to lan kwai fong too and its really very lively. the view from the peak is ohmygod de pretty (and romamntic!) and i wished we had more time there!
day5: the mongkok + granville rd + last min shopping day
where i think i bought more things than the previous days combined haha. and i bought a tvb soft toy. hahaha.
i tink hk is a nice place to go to, though not in winter cos there was nth for us to buy. maybe autumn will be gd. its a gd place to go with family, friends or bf :) its a really romantic place for me! esp at night. the cityview is pretty. and i'll definitely visit hk again :)
regrets: din get to see tvb filming........ and fung came to singapore while i was in hk wth......... no clothes to buy..
but otherwise, nice trip :) photos on facebook :)
