go back
Tuesday, June 27, 2006
Woohoo, I am back from Hong Kong. It was a pretty short 4day 3 night trip, but I thought it was really pretty good. Contary to what many thing, I think the best thing is to go with your best friend, who can accomodate you and do things together, without complaining or holding you back. Alot of time its not where you go, its who you are with. Having the wrong company for a holiday trip can be the worst thing in life. Ask Sharrel, she knows. Aaha.

This trip made me learn many things. Besides the usual eating and shopping in Hong Kong, I really saw a different side to it. I went up the peak, took photos with 'Aaron kwok, Andy Lau, etc..." Famous people around the world in the wax museum. I even took wacky photos wearing the Marily Monroe dress with the famous pose on the blowing sewer. Haha also took a picture of me impersonating a Sumo kit. I finally know how tough it was on Andy Lau to flim "shou sheng nan nu", wearing the "fat suit". Hot and heavy.

I also went to Lautau island and visit Giant Buddha. I took back some scriptures. Haha like go journey to the west like that. THe mountain there, the view is so great. Even better than the peak. Dinoe the nature view of Hong Kong can be so great! I guess this is a side of Hong Kong many wont know. Its not just abut shopping and eating.

Though not bout eating, I still have to mention the food there. AHah. Din really try much, except the wantan noodles, roast goose, their toast bread breakfast and dimsum. Love their milk tea! The food may be slightly be more expensive than Singapore but the standard is much higher so I guess its worth it after all. Also if you look around you do get bargain buys like I ate a wonderful dim sum breakfast at a restaurant at only 10 sing per person. Eat until I am so full. Also I notice Seven Eleven is everywhere. Every 2 street there is one, also there is a Kmart to rival it. Zhi Hai also notice like every 15mins, an ambulance passes by the road. Wonder if crime rate is so high in Hong Kong or people are very careless there.

Last but not least is Disneyland. Its not really that big and those who been to Tokyo or US Disney would most probably be dissapointed. BUt to me, it fulfill my dream of visiting one, just because its not that expensive. But having a preview of how wonderful Disney can be I will really make it a point to go there, US and Japan I mean. The rides arent great, but the shows are fantastic. Bought small soveniers for my colleagues, friends and family.

I guess thats all for now. Lucky tomorrow on leave. So tired...
