Hong Kong, been almost 2 months since the one week trip and I'm finally blogging about it (as requested).
I've almost forgotten on which day we went where or what time I woke up on each day..so just let this post be like a Travel Advisor for those going to HK...
~Where You Should Go~
Since it was an official visit for my sis, there was an usher to pick us up from the airport and off to GRAND HYATT( The BED WAS FANTASTIC LAH ) . We went to Disneyland moments after settling down. We took the MRT or they call it MTR. There is so many similarity for the transport system except that they are still using the Transitlink card version and have a Disney THEME TRAIN...cool kan?! . FYI be prepare to have coins and lots of it when buying the Single Trip card.
Disneyland Hong Kong
Unfortunately, we were only left with about an hour before the rides stop operating and the "best" part was that the ride I so wanted to go which was the Space Mountain was not operating...BOOOHOOOOO . So we hang out outside Disneyland and save the bucks for something else.
The Peak
The Peak is a must go. The tram will go uphill, it is so steep that you'll notice the building being slanted. The NIGHT view of the city from The Sky Terrace is fantastic ! Oh ya and Madame Tussauds is located inside The Peak Sky Terrace too! I got to take Pictures with all the "Stars" and "Politicians"
Lady's Market
This is where the shopping spree begin! Yes it's call lady's market but it does not only sell lady's stuff its like a "Pasar Malam". You can get all the Real Fake stuff from Watches to Jersey and yes you need to play the Bargain game with them or else you kena KETOK!
Ocean Park
We went to OCEAN PARK on our very last day! The place was huge ar! Its like Sentosa all in one place(I think the cost is like taking Cable Car Combo Package from Mt Faber to Sentosa). They even have cable car and train to bring us to the other side of the mountain (the other side has all the THRILL rides) all of this just ONE PAYMENT. Its so huge and since we came in early, it feels as though we own the place. Imagine only four thrill seeker taking the Roller Coaster ride?!!
There is many more places in HK, if you want to know all the other places go visit the Official HK site http://www.discoverhongkong.com/eng/ . Dont worry about the food. With a map and some research you'll find your way to the nearest Halal dish. Ill try to post as much details on where and what Halal food you may find in HK. But that will be in my next post ya...
