独自漂洋过海 (5)

Day 5 - 6/10/14

the day to fly back.
awwwwww...

as usual, dim sum feast bahhhh... wheeeee...

 虾肠 in addition to my all time favourite har kau =D

 ouh hi 叉烧包 =D

 and finally 咸水角. not bad weiiiii =D =D

a total of $72.50 

I'm missing all these foods badlyyyyyyy geezzzz

went back to guest hotel to take my luggage and check-out. thought at the departure hall will have something for me to spend my HKD. 

since i bought a two-way airport express pass, so i only had to buy a Single Journey Ticket from Jordan to Central. and from Central just tap the octopus card and board the airport express.

and terminal 2 really =.=

only able to buy some things at Kee Wah, didn't get the Lao Po Bing coz i still prefer hot and fresh one XD 

and some souvenirs at the Disneyland souvenirs shop.

really should take Cathay instead. just a mere difference of $100+, heck but created so much fuss.. =.=

heh heh.. jetstar changed my seat due to i-forgot-what-reason.

this angmo pilot... think is backup one. he was there throughout the flight.

nice cakes though! anyone going to HK soon?? =P

and this ends my HK trip.

Postscript:
this is my very first solo trip. and i enjoyed it very much, seriously ^_^ that kind of freedom.... haha!!
about HK...
basically living expenses of no difference from as in Singapore here. foods, groceries, transportation etc are of almost the same price. the only difference is on the branded stuffs. its a tax-free haven in HK, couldn't compare that...
good food of course =)
will find people here in Singapore are more civilised than that of HK. maybe its because of a i-know-u-know-why reason... or what else? they are very rude there. was very very "pek chek", esp when comes to public transport use. grrrrr

my next stop? i aint sure about that. hope won't be too long =)

独自飘扬过海(4)

Day 4 - 5/10/14

day 4. since its my last full day in HK, gotta fulfil one of my intentions... and that is to.. ngeeheehee... shop! what else ?=P
that man actually texted me at 7+ or 8am, asking me to wake up to go jalan jalan =.= =.=!!!

before that, gotta have breakfast first. no malls will start operate so early, some more its a sunday.

had my dim sum feast again =P

 皮蛋瘦肉粥

its a soup? or slightly thicker than a normal clear soup? haha!! anyway, taste not that bad..

 prawn dumplings as usual =P

流沙包 in addition to that =)

 and fried carrot cake too! wheee~~

total of HKD$73.50 this round. =)

think its some kind of 职业病... =P 

how nice if in sg here we dont have to wear all the PPEs(personal protective equipments), added all together really no joke heavy. few steps also slower than as normal =.=

 TVB =P =P

 this road actually leads to Mongkok, where its famous for sport shoes. its 波鞋街 in cantonese.

 ahh.. the Occupy Central movement was still on.. and still on, up to date.

their police very leng zai right.... kekeke..

 streeeeeetssssss.... with shops selling all kinds of sport shoes all the way. start operating around 12nn if not mistaken.

and, cheap. really cheap, if compared to sg. some more, more latest choices.

real cheap.

Skinfood here is cheaper than in sg too!!! too bad i did not have budget for that >_<

kept hunting and hunting and hunting, comparing prices here and there. actually theres not much difference among the shops, maybe a few HKD dollars? its too insignificant.
i need a pair, coz my existing one seems like going to retire at anytime soon.

after surveying a few models, i went on to other places, the shopping haven, 海港城 of course =P
wanted to get a decent handbag, existing one also wanna retire =.=
but kept browsing here and there still couldn't decide on any.
eyed on one actually, but didn't have enough cash and very unwilling to use my debit card and let bank charges me much on the oversea swiping. *geez i regretted so much for not changing more HKD*

its 4+ in the afternoon after browsing through here and there.
and was very tired, walked all the way..........
suddenly remember an eggettes stall nearby my guest hotel.

 利强记 北角鸡蛋仔。has a few branches. so happened that Jordan also has one =D =D

quite a long q arrrrrrrrr >_<

but not bad =D

bought some curry fish balls and cuttlefish balls also. to be frank, cuttlefish balls here by Old Chang Kee is better but the curry sauce is nice =)

a total of HKD$32

then went home, rest and get showered. to charge my phone too.

after getting enough of rest, went to Mongkok again. to buy shoes =P

 got street show =D

haha! as a results of being unable to get a handbag, i bought three pairs of shoes to compensate myself =.= *dunno what kind of logic is that*

oasics, the running shoes. to replace my current nike.

new balance, the jalan-jalan shoes. to replace my hello kitty. some wear and tear on the PU leather surface already >_<

both cost HKD$1689

how to get these two pairs of shoes in less than S$300 here in sg???

and lastly clarks original, the i-dunno-what-purpose-yet shoes. just for the sake of being comfortable and looks like not bad =.= cost HKD$850. cheap, really cheap. clarks aren't cheap here!!!

8+ in the night,

back to guest hotel. 

to pack stuffs ....

that ended my Day 4. how time flies.

独自漂洋过海 (3)

Day 3 - 4/10/2014 =D

Plan for the day, Ocean Park. was torn apart between Tai-O the fishing village and Ocean Park actually, even after shower still thinking which to go. then the man teased me and asked, Sarawak doesn't have fishing village is it? or ppl there skin different so better?

at that instance i really wanted to knock him, if he's next to me.

Thought of changing place for breakfast.

Wanted to try this 澳洲牛奶公司。near to my guest hotel too.

but when i reached there............

the q..................

few shop lots away from the shop =.= =.= =.= =.=!!!

aint going to waste my time q-ing. no.

so walked down a bit to 顺德人鱼米之家. but forgot what its famous for.
since it operates in the morning, so just dropped by.

Had this Set G

Polo Bun. Nice nice.... =D

fresh milk. i tot its really the type of boxed fresh milk that found in supermarket.

but it smelled awful like powdered milk. tot the taste might be like those fresh milk, so gave it a sip. really felt vomiting. whole cup just stayed there. eeeewwwwww never ever like powdered milk. yuckssssssssss

ham with two sunny side up. nice and simple breakfast. though not like super awesome, still good =)

From directory, to go to Ocean Park has to alight at Central then take bus there.

when i reached Central, staffs there told me that have to go to Tin Hau and board a bus there =.=

if not mistaken, all thanks to the demonstration =.=

下一站，天后. but i never listened to the song before =P

took a bus.
massive traffic jam. geeeez
upon reaching its already 10+. sien.

Hello Ocean Park!!! =D

Entrance ticket $320. quite expensive.

for Halloween =D

Legs itchy went to q for this Hair Raiser roller coaster. 

from the outlook, it really seems like peanuts. 

once on it, die. only got one word - DIE.

screamed all the way from my heart zzz

hands went numb and legs went shaky when the route ended @_@

so happened that the man's text came in when i finished the coaster ride. asking me, end up fishing or watching fish. grrrr ';..;'
so told him i ended up with Ocean Park , and was on roller coaster.
then only i know he was here about 15yrs ago. wow.
and he was super impressed that i dare to go on roller coaster, and holding my pee while riding. coz i couldn't find a toilet by then. no, i wasn't dare, if only i saw the overall route.

took a cable car to other area after the roller coaster ride.

and its definitely not a good idea to be on a cable car after roller coaster.

nauseous. very very nauseating. out of a sudden i was so scared being in a cable car @_@

good Lao Po Bing from Kee Wah. fresh and hot, and very very nice =D

chicken pie *thumbs up too* =D

total $27

could only have light lunch due to the tremendous nauseous 

3pm +

was very tired, and sweated all over.

clouds looked ominous,again.

park is too big, to finish it at my speed, probably need to be until night time. but too tired, so no choice have to wave the park goodbye.

Captain Shark will bid you farewell =D

it is good. ticket is expensive, worth it though. like a combination of portion of SEA Aquarium+River Safari(pandas)+USS.
quite a good experience to be on the roller coaster. so far my record was the Sunway Lagoon's Tomahawk. would want to be there again, to try the Hair Raiser with eyes widely open XD

back to guest hotel at 4+ near 5pm. really defeated.

night time plan was to shop around Citygate Outlet at Tung Chung.

went out again near 7pm. to Central, look look see see and searched for fine dining.

Central, a bit like Orchard, branded shops all around.

半山扶手梯。interesting.

walked a long way, but ended up with a bowl of lousy ramen @_@ could have better one in singapore. or by my own =.=

quickly head over to Citygate before closing.
wanted to look for a pair of sport shoes, but in vain. outlet.... out-of-sizes-and-stocks mall. =.=
price here really cheaper than in town, when HK is already a tax-free shopping haven.

there you go, my tiring day.

独自漂洋过海 (2.2)

to go to Cheung Chau, one has to take a ferry at Central Pier.

 there are several piers.

Cheung Chau one is pier No. 5

 Central Pier =D

Took a fast ferry to Cheung Chau, the ride was about half an hour or so, $25.80 per adult.

the slow one is of course cheaper, longer ride.

didn't want to waste much time so spent a bit more. since was on a holiday, so just closed one eye =P

can see what i seen from HK TVB dramas. haha!

was very hot upon arrival, cannot stand it so bought a hat.

my favourite selfie of the year XD XD sorry if its an eyesore for you =P

took a bit of time to walk around.

it was near lunch but wasn't hungry yet due to the dim sum feast in the morning.

walked by this 金毛鸡蛋仔 eggettes stall *dont know if its famous in Cheung Chau, saw some articles on the board*, really really couldn't resist, so bought a share. $15

 crunchy on the outside, fluffy inside, taste not so bad =)

kept walking and walking and walking. to explore part of the island.
and because its lunch time, it was like a bit weird if i didn't take lunch, although i was still full and just had the eggettes. it really felt very weird!!!!
went back to the hats stall asked the boss what's nice around there. he recommended seafood, but i was alone. so he introduced 亚伦冰室
spent some time searching for it because the logo does not stand out, in fact i passed by it few times =.=

lunch time, so it was crowded.

asked the waitress to recommend, and she recommended fish fillet vermicelli soup

 yuzu tea, love it, its nice =D

 there the fish fillet vermicelli soup.

the fish fillets were.................. awesomeeeeesee.... very fish and chewy. love it!!!! and please dont compare to those here in singapore and also malaysia, even nicer than my mum's. *please dont tell her XD XD *

a total of $41. sort of okay, worth the price. of not much difference than here in singapore.

and i continued exploring the island.
clouds looked ominous, went back to the hats shop see if they sell umbrella, the friendly boss laughed and said no. awwwww... but he's really a friendly boss! asked if i had my lunch =D
got an umbrella and continued the journey =P
bought some dried goods from 大妹海味 for my mum. dont know if things there really good, but its a fishing village there, really dunno if theres any difference from kuching one or not leii =.=
price doesn't differ by lot, slightly cheaper than in sg though.

passed by this 时来食坊
ngaiti seriously my tummy didn't have much space for more food but when i saw the charcoal grilled cuttlefish i simply couldn't resist =/

 and get a bottle of seaweed drink $20. four pieces of small cuttlefish $35

the cuttlefish was really................. aweeeeesomeeeeeeeeee awwwww

 this stall sells kuihs and etc.

should be nice i think, read from web one.

but my tummy really couldn't fit anything else, no matter how much i felt like eating @_@

some more was raining..

 hid in Eggenberg cafe of a B&B there, near the 东湾沙滩, and waited for the rain to stop.

 what a peach punch $35 -_- really bo bien ._.

 and finally rain stopped =)

too bad, didn't get extra extra clothing and sandals, else can walk about the beach =/

 the beauty of Cheung Chau =)

the weather was unstable, rain sun rain sun, quite a spoiler, couldn't stand it so took ferry back to HK at 245pm.
went back to guest hotel to clean up myself and rest.
dragged until dinner time only went out. seriously i wasn't hungry at all!!!!
really felt sorry for myself if i skipped any meal while at such a food haven place XD
asked the guest hotel boss' wife if nearby has any good food or not.
the riot still on going, which actually ruined my plan. many bus services were disrupted, means, the MTR will be packed like sardine can, already tasted the pack while on my way home from Central. couldn't stand it, with rude people there. so forced to change my plan, could only walked to nearby places, which doesn't require public transport. sien =.=
boss' wife introduced claypot rice at Temple St, which is about less than 20mins walk.

there are two quite famous clay pot rice, one is 兴记, one is 四季. but seems to have several 兴记, dont know if they are the same or is there any counterfeit ones, so chose 四季 instead, since only got one shop =.=

quite a queue actually. chose 腊肠滑鸡煲 $44. if in group can have side dishes also. ok lar, not bad, as normal? or could be i dont know what is good claypot rice. haha! cincai lar... 

didn't have any alternative plan for the night, as ruined by the demonstration. so just anyhow look look see see while on the way back to guest hotel. sigh!
