I'm on leave today!
i've lost track to when was the last time i've got a full day break.
august is busy like i mentioned before.
and its about to come to an end before i even realized it.
attended amanda's 21st birthday last sat @ bayview hotel.
it was a joyful one. nice food, nice surrounding
now back to the long expired HK trip.
i wanted to blog about it since i came back even though i have not lay
a finger on my photos.
before it starts getting accumulated in my undone list, i think i ought to blog it since i'm kind of free today.

1st August friday: day 1 - STP, our SAVIOR!
the day was not only a rush, but also a mess!!
actually i felt that the whole trip is in a rush.
booking tickets almost last min,
rushing from work to home just before i fly
and what's worse was that there was a flight delay of 45mins!
was late in meeting stp in hk international airport! (can't believe it)
to my greatest fear, my luggage almost went missing.
and it was my sister who recognizes it instead of me.
looking at the flight delay, quoting my sister's words, it seems like fated that stp has to be forever waiting for us.lol she waited for us from 6++pm -around9pm. really sorry for that!
its so sweet of her to get us donuts when we landed!! and hey, the donuts there are heavenly!!
she sure know that we're starving. and i know that she's starving too.lol
futhermore, she escorted us to the hotel, help us check in and went home late for the day.
i cannot imagine where we would land up w/o her. seriously.
we did some late shopping with xian guiding us to ladies street!
but also thanks to her that we lost our way back and needed assistant from a police on duty!
lol. it was cool though. and can u believe that we are still having dessert @ around 2am in the morning before heading to bed? yeps...that ended our day 1 in hk~



Hong Kong-retimed


in the plane!


hello stp!! and the yummy donuts!




2 August Saturday: day 2: Hk's attractions! Ocean Park + the peak!
morning call from stp @ around 8.30am but all of us were still lazing under our comfortable blanket! was supposed to meet stp @ 9.30 @ some station so tt we could get to ocean park in time! not surprised, we were late again! though it was only 3 stops away.lol.
was really excited the moment we reached ocean park! the place was magnificent!
had breakfast and then headed to our first ride, the water ride!
it was DAMN FUN even though we had to queue for almost an hour!
but the wait was worth it.



All Drenched!!


the exact day, we took the most horrifying roller coaster of my life!
i almost thought i could not come back alive.
and know what? i didnt even have my safety belt fastened!
it was only when we were to get down that i realized there's a safety belt.
they were all in shock! LOL.

the roller coaster of our life!

we also took the ferry's wheel, some viewer thingy and cable car! it was a scary ride for the 4 of us.the funny thing was, we were the only ones who are holding tight to the pole
in the cable car, everyone else was so relaxed.



and i have to mention bout this kungfu panda attraction!!
it was so cute! a mimic of the kungfu panda scenes!
i managed to throw a cookie into the drawer with my first throw!
how great. and stp was harassed by the kungfu guy.lol. it was super hilarious.
the day at ocean park ended with us not being able to see the real panda!!
mind u, the queue is about 2 hours long! how disappointing.






The Kungfu Panda!! huggs


That's the REAL panda's house!!

did some shopping @ the famous H&M and then went to the peak!
the scenery is magnificent! its sooo beautiful. u can see the most beautiful sight of hk.
lightings, buildings, the harbour, everything! and of course the mansions of the richest in hk.
and that concluded the 2nd day in hk.



3rd August Sunday:Day 3-Yum Cha, Shopping , Farewell HK and hello Macau
as usual, morning call from stp at 8++am!
we're going to yum cha with her parents and do some final shopping in hk!
her parents are really nice to host us to some yummy restaurant at grand century plaza(if im nt wrong). the dim sums were DELICIOUS!!! omg, the best i've ever tried.
i love love love the buo luo bao! hahas.
shopping followed by that and everything's so cheappp!!
we called it "Peng" hahahas.
we started our "peng" craze and started buying non-stop.
as u know, good times are always short.
we went back to hotel to collect our luggage and stp sent us to the ferry terminal as we head to macau.
the 3 days were filled with fun, laughter and excitement.
even the min before departing to macau, there was a funny episode.
we queued at the wrong lane, which was supposed to be for people departing to
Zhu Hai (some part of china) lol. and finally, when we thought that that's our final goodbye
to stp, the person told us that macau is at the other lane.
all of us almost fainted at that moment.
and looking at the adjacent lane, there was NO queue!
not even a single soul.
and so, we really left for macau, yes, RELUCTANTLY!

Enjoying Yum Cha!!!



The Buzzling HK Street~


Dream come true~
on HK street with STP at her hometown!


Macau Summary.
reached macau at around 8, was stranded on the street, it was messy, no cab,
and gt conned by the taxi driver. reach a grand-looking hotel, thought that everything was
finally good, sense something amiss but still stayed on, felt unwell the next morning,
had a relatively filling breakfast, drag our fatigue bodies to the Venetian, headed to the airport HAPPILY(and gt conned again which we thought was the very last time), but no, swallowed some nonsense that cost us HKD250!!! much more than a Macdonald's meal which could be considered as emperor's food to us at that point of time. took the flight HAPPILY back to Singapore and promised never to go there again!
reached SG the following day and was really relived that we're finally back HOME!
we were all jumping like some insane when we saw the "Welcome Home" sign at the immigration. Thank God we're home! my gosh.

Yes, this is macau. Early morning.



The only satisfaction of the day.
The Venetian.


What a nice lunch after a long day~



ALL THESE for HKD 250 =50 SGD *FAINTSSS*


Can't wait to get home!!
