Hong Kong / Shezhen trip! :)

Hey Humans! Me finally back from Hong Kong. And i'll be sharing with u guys bout my whole hong kong trip. This is a very VERY loooong post. If u get bored in the middle just grab a drink or snack to continue reading or just log it off. This post is a reference to me. I have to make it long (so that next time i know where/how to go).  Enjoy reading. :) Note: As i mentioned "WE" in the post that's refer to my parent and i.

1st day- Hong Kong (rain)

In the plane

Was damn bored
Arrive at Hong Kong about 11.20am. Then take bus to check in to Stanford Hotel at Soy Street in Mong Kok.

That place i mean Mong Kok is the busiest place in hk. And of course that's how the name came from. :) So yeah. I recommend if u guys planning to go to hk (free & easy), make sure u stay in Mong Kok. During daytime lots of ppl will go thr for shopping and hunt for foods as well as nighttime. And our hotel is just so near to Neway Karaoke and Cinema. yeah really. So if u get bored in the hotel, just get down thr yo (instead of playing cards in the hotel room). And ladies market (nui yan kai) just a stone throw away. Wookay, back to my trip. After we're done with our check-in and all. We head to Luk Yuen to eat beef balls noodle recommended by my bro and the guidebook. So we go try it. But it was just ok. If u compare with SS14 beef noodle i think their beef balls are nicer than the one in Luk Yuen. Then head to MTR (subway station) and take a ride to Causeway Bay and walk around Sogo (shopping mall)  for a while. The clothes inside there was damn NICE and the price is also damn "NICE"! So i didn't buy anything at thr. :S Then went out from the Sogo and walk around the street. Causeway Bay is something like Bukit Bintang. There's one Times Square but i couldn't find where is it. But their Times Square is different from ours according to my research. LOL. After that, we went back to MTR and take a ride to The Peak. Thr's 3 ways to go up there. Bus, taxi, or tram. We suppose to sit the Peak tram but haha no thx. We choose Bus instead. Why? One is to save ka-ching and the other reason is because you'll get to see more places.
The Peak Tower

The Peak Tram

Hong Kong view
HK night view

Oh forget to tell u what's up there. There's Peak Galleria where u can shop at there and The Peak Tower where u get to go for Madame Tussauds and Ripley's Believe It or Not. Oh! and if u go to the highest floor of the Peak Tower, u'll get to see the whole Hong Kong. It's a great view up there especially at night! But that time we went there, the view quite blur (lots of mist). It's raining season over there. Hate it!!
Wah-chai!!

she so TALL! 

I'm one of their "adopted" child

Louis Khoo. He damn Macho
Hahahahha!! Super Like this!
After we're done with our snapshots and all, we sit taxi to Lan Kwai Fong. It was around 9 something (pm), not many people. Nothing much over there but if u want to get drunk or something head down there. While walking down the street i saw Coach! :)


Note: I didn't take much picture on the street. Was busy guiding my parent around hong kong and FIRST time reading a map! Gosh. I was so blur even in the MTR (the direction is so confusing) but later on i get used to it and I know how to get to the particular destination yo.

2nd day- Hong Kong- Shenzhen (rain)
hahaha. look at my dad! EPIC! XD can't stop laughing

Wake up at 7am. Go Fu Lim restaurant to eat dim sum. The food is COLD and is not NICE. XP After that, we went to Victoria Harbour to see the Golden Flower. We took a few snapshots at there. Then we go to this place (where i forget the name of it) where you can see Jackie Chan's mansion. It just located on top of the hill.
The one i circle over there is Jackie Chan's mansion. That's the maximum i can zoom
While on the way going up there, we passed by Lee Ka Seng's mansion (one of  the Macau Casino Boss). Afterdat, we went to Aberdeen Fishing Village. Over there, you can see Leon Lai's and Lee Ka Seng's yatch and also the Jumbo Restaurant open by Jackie Chan.
Leon Lai's yatch

Lee Ka Seng's yatch
No ideo who's one. But is damn cool.

Then went for lunch. The food is damn nice  (which make me eat 2 bowls of rice) :P Then we sit MTR to Shenzhen. Arrive at there - take taxi go to Shan Shui Hotel. We wait damn long for that taxi. Almost half an hour. =.= After dinner, we head to Dung Men. Buy lots of clothes and sandals over there. Damn CHEAP. 

3rd day- Shenzhen (heavy rain)
Wake up at 630am. Eat breakfast in the hotel. Not nice at all. I just grab a toast and porridge. THAT's IT! Then went to Jade Shop. Wasting time over there. After dat to a Chinese Medicine shop. Lagi boring and wasting time over there. -.- Then we headed to the Cultural Village or something to see the cultural show and also the small small buildings in China. So cute. But i took very few pictures over there. Coz is raining and i tak de mood to take coz i'm ALL WET!! Even though umbrella is with me is still USELESS! =.= So end up we didn't get to watch the cultural show. We went back to the hotel and take a bath. It was my mom's idea coz she scared later the next day we'll get sick. So yeah. :S After dat, we went to eat dinner somewhere nearby our hotel then we went to Dung Men again. 10.20pm. Everyone's feels hungry. Decided to go for supper before heading back to the hotel.

4th day- Shezhen/ Disneyland. (rain/sunny)
Wake up as usual. Head back to MTR to go back to Hong Kong. Took Hung Hom station. Arrived at there wait quite long for the tour guide to pick us up to Stanford Hotel (yea.. we stay there again) to put down our luggage 1st before going to Disneyland. The weather that day was good compare to few days back. Hong Kong Disneyland was REALLY SMALL and the rides are almost all  kiddy rides. Only one or two rides that give me the "thrill" feeling. Yea Disneyland = kids theme park. But i like the night view of the Disneyland. It's really Beautiful. As for the Parade it was the express one coz raining that time. yea FTW! Not nice at all. :( Totally the wrong season we went there. Dun ever go Hong Kong during summer time coz it'll be damn hot and is always raining.



Must play this when u're in Disneyland! Damn AWESOME!
Feel like playing it 2nd time but the queue is freaking loong



Chip & Dale! Me love!!



After dat, me and my mom walk around Mong Kok for while. Then before heading back to the hotel, we decided to eat dessert.
Mango sago with real mango & strawberry bits

sweet corn sago w/ coconut milk

Last day- Hong Kong. (sunny)
Wake up at 7 something. Yea quite late coz it's free and easy trip today. 1st we went to eat dim sum at one very famous dim sum shop in Mong Kok (just behind Stanford Hotel). But it'll only open at 10am. So yeah. We decided not to wait and just eat breakfast somewhere nearby. Den we walk for while and head back to that dim sum shop. It was around 9.45am we reached there and the queue was freaking looong O.O

yea... THAT LONG! no kd.

 But my mom still want me to go queue for it. At 10am that shop open and of course haven't my turn yet is ald full. And we have to wait another half an hour, so my mom decided not to wait anymore. So, we straight away take MTR and go to Tsim Sha Shui. Oh.. Before we're going there, we went to Langham Place. You guys should shop at H&M if u see one in hk. The clothes is damn Nice and Cheap!

After we've arrived at TST station and walk to Canton Rd. If u're rich, I recommend u guys must go there. That street is full of branded outlets like Gucci, Cartier, Tiffany & Co, and so.


From there, we walk to Avenue of Stars. Just 15 minutes walk. Took some snapshots at there.



haha... some random American fella. Try ask me how does he end up in the picture. XD



Im the director yo!

Hah! I can be camerawoman too. :P
Then walk to Heritage 1881. Just 3-5 minute walk from Avenue of Stars. Is a very beautiful roman-style place.


 At 3 something we decided to head back to the hotel coz someone is gonna pick us up to the airport at 5pm + my leg ald damn pain i couldn't walk anymore. While on the way back, we went to ladies market to get some snacks and dim sum. Arrived at the airport around 6 something. Walk around the airport till we're almost forget to check in. But thank god. It's still not late. Not yet boarding. Arrived at Malaysia around 1am. Ate cheezy wedges before going back. LOL. Woke up at 2pm (saturday). First time, slept till so late.
