I Love Hong Kong - Day 1

Touched down HongKong airport as per scheduled and took the Airport Express ride to HongKong station without much trouble. Had a good feeling about the trip until we got lost after exiting from the MTR. 

According to the map, the hotel is about 400m away from the MTR station. The city map we had was too large scale and didn't have the small streets in it and we can't find our way to the hotel. Gave up and flagged down a cab in the middle of the road but was asked to get down cuz he didn't know the place! Kwa Kwa... Asked around for directions and eventually found it after walking up and down for an hour. SO TIRED AND HUNGRY ALREADY CAN!!! ROAR!!!!!!



Photobucket
The Mini Hotel has a mini theme


Photobucket
Dying to check in and freshen up!!!


Photobucket
First place we went was the Avenue of Stars.
Snapped a few pictures and decided to come back for the night harbour view and laser show.
We left the place after we bought our Disneyland tickets from the nearby kiosk.


Photobucket
The peak tram is about 10 minutes walk from our hotel


Photobucket
Didn't bring our tripod stand so all our attempts to self take FAIL!


Photobucket
YAY! I'm going up up up!!!!

Photobucket
Many many people visiting the peak. We paid the tickets with octopus card, scan and go.
One way is HKD28 and the return trip costs HKD12.
We tramed both ways so that makes it HKD40 per person.


Photobucket
Managed to get good seats :)


Photobucket
The Bubba Gump restaurant at the Peak.
GW was craving to eat this since the last time we had it at US.

Care for a game of pingpong?

Grabbing my hair cuz the wind was so strong up there!


Photobucket
GW says can see people walking around inside their apartments from the binoculars


Photobucket
Late night supper at PHO24.
He was super delighted to find chicken feet skin on the menu.


Photobucket
His beef pho. And his iced red bean milk for every meal.


Photobucket
Heading back to hotel, gotta pass by Lan Kwai Fong so went to check out the area.


Photobucket
The halloween decorations there is so happening!!!
Many angmohs there clubbing and drinking..


Photobucket
Took a closer picture of the chinese zombie, there are broken limbs hanging up there too.


Photobucket
The only shopping GW did in HK was this L-lens and a copy of his favourite lao fu zi comic.


Photobucket
Tadah!!!


Photobucket
Then he got a little thirsty....


Photobucket
Oh yeah... Drinks just taste better in a L-Lens cup.

The quest to eat liu sha bao

Photobucket
Dim sum lunch at Imperial Nan Bei, Takashimaya
Photobucket
With my da gu, aunt Julia!
It was a busy day at the restaurant, waited for a long time for our food to be serve.
Photobucket
THIS SOUP IS AWESOME! Highly recommended. $7 per bowl.
But I forgot what it's called (something something bao tang?).
Need to ask Aunt Lydia again.
Photobucket
Aunt Lydia's new haircut.
All ready to attack Mr Xiaolongbao.


Photobucket
And here's my liu sha bao!!!!
Salted egg custard steam bun.
Photobucket
See the flowy salted egg molten lava?  Eat it while it's hot for that extra oomph.
Couldn't bear to waste a drop on the plate, unless you want to see me lick the plate clean!
Photobucket
How i wished it was BIGGER!!!
NOT ENOUGH LAH!!!
Photobucket
太好吃啦!!!
*rolls on the liu sha bao*

Elliot and the paper lantern

Photobucket
Ah ma bought a paper lantern for me.
Actually she bought two, but one of them was badly tramautised  by you-know-who.
(read: torn into a million pieces)
 
 
Photobucket
Elliot: So now there's a "bodyguard" 24 by 7 when I'm holding a paper lantern.
 
 
Photobucket
Lalala...
 
 
Photobucket
My pretty neighbour ah yi playing with me :)
 
 
Photobucket
Yay! Ah ma let me hold the lantern by myself :)
 
 
Photobucket
WOAH! Everyone starts running away whenever I do the frantic lantern wave.
How cool is that!!!
