HK pics - PaRt One

today i got the memory card from dear
so i will try my very best to narrate to u all my 5days4 nights trip to HK.......this will probably be the longest post, so u have to bear with me to read from top to end
trip from 5th Aug to 10th Aug. Journey begins at 2pm ( coz tts the time we met at the airport) to 11.58pm (coz tts the time we arrived back in singapore)
tell u lor, 1st time in my life, i took BUSINESS CLASS.......and if u asked me what's the diff. well, the diff is the stewardess/steward addresses u by ur surname......."Mr. xxx, Ms. xxx". u have SPECIAL attention and services too. first thing, they bring everybody a glass of orange juice or champange or u can order whatever shit u want. if u can name it, they have it..... =))
next they asked u whether u want any papers.....and they are always smiling at u.....must be damn tired lor.......then the food came...........i tell u lor...its so different from the economy class......economy class, one tray served all the food but in business class, well......the dishes come one by one.......first the appetizer then they asked u "Ms. xxx do u want any wine or champange to go with the appetizer?" still smiling i tell u......then they cleared the plate and served the bread.......wa lao!! 101 type of bread lor. and u get to choose.........ok ok, maybe exaggerate liao, no 1o1 lah, but in economy u where can get to choose ............they give u what, u eat what........ then they cleared the plate and here comes the main dish, then they asked u again for the BEVERAGE.......and still smiling lor.....then they cleared the plate and here comes the desserts........mixed fruits with cheese or just fruit.......i tell u lor, u get to have a banana or a apple or pear or whatever they have in the basket........but in economy, well.....its only slices of fruit.....then they cleared and here comes the chocolates............and then "coffee or tea, Ms xxx"

omg!!! i sound so mountain turtle rite.........but but but......its my first time lor.......virgin ride in business class..........!!! so memorable........even the tv and the seat is so much better, i can really lay way down in my seat and have a good sleep.........i told mama the ear piece also bigger than economy class.......should have took some pics to show, but then later ppl said i cukoo leh........ =P
anyway, since no pics to show, i won't elaborate too much on business class........but i tell u lor, mama said its the amt of $$ u paid.....every single cent of it......even the luaggages come first on the converyor belt lor........u got PRIORITY........
we reached HK at ard 7 plus. dear used his very frequent cantonese and purchase 2 types of ma chiam ez link card for our airport express trip to take the K5 mini bus (free shuttle bus) and also the 5 day MTR card for both the MTR and buses........ * so very the impressed*

anyway, we left the airport on the MTR and then arrived at the airport express station and took the K5 mini bus to our hotel....RAMADA Hotel at TSIM SHA TSUI (TST)...... dear said he booked 3 hotels but only RAMADA confirmed us.....lucky got hotel.......coz on our last day, got this tourist sitting at our hotel lobby caling hotels to make booking.......but seemed like all hotel fully booked........poor thing.. such a big risk they took

after checking in, we rested for awhile and then we went exploring the areas near our place. found a restaurant and ate our dinner i had porridge and dear had his mixed beef noodle......(u know all the spare parts which u can think of) btw, we stayed on the 18th floor, (non-smoking section are all situation at the top levels) room 1808.........go buy 4D ok....strike liao dun forget us......hehehe....the room is quite small.......but who cares coz we will be spending most of the time outdoor than indoor rite. as long as it is clean and sleep-able and bath-able and poo-able, i am fine with it...........

next morning, woke up at abt 9 plus, and started our journey in HK. 1st stop LANTAU ISLAND.........went to Po Lin Monastery, see the gaint buddha and had veg meal and even went to the wisdom path and called it a day at Tai O fishing village.......too bad the cable car not working if not can take cable car at Ngong Ping 360 to the Ngong Village.....so in the end we took bus in..........

Dun see every pic so sunny ok, its was raining.....rain stop rain stop.......buay ta han.......so before we embarked on our 2nd day programme.......we went to buy an umbrella from 7-11 1st thing in the morning.... *faint*

2nd day, as it was still raining, we went to places near TST, wanted to go to granville road which is just behind our hotel for shopping but i tell u lor 11 plus and the shops are not opened!!! NOT EVEN ONE ok........*faint* so we proceeded to Avenue of stars and clock tower........nothing special here, except for the bruce lee statue lor......but as it was RAINING so cannot take much pics so we went into the shopping centre and had MAC.........ya, not dim sum or ding mee....but MAC....... as u can see from the pics, one moment cloudy and wet, the next moment SUNNY.......bloody hell.....mess up my hair..... hmph


Avenue of Stars........(the stars are on the floor...hehe)

clock tower

as it was quite sunny after clock tower, we decided to proceed to next destination at REPULSE BAY..........also nothing much to see except for bikini cladded sweet young things and 2 10m tall statues of chinese deities. then we took a mini bus over to stanley market. ma chiam like those shops at bugis village minus the air con....from stanley market we walked to stanley plaza took a bus to peak tram terminus to go to THE PEAK.........and then after THE PEAK we walked to lan kwai fong, but i was really very very tired liao, legs almost giving up on me, so i decided to give SOHO a miss.........

actually i wanted to buy an earring from a stall at stanley market, but hor i find tt HK$45 a bit steep so in the end i cut love no buy. but when i saw something similar near our hotel, and it was selling at HK$89, i almost wanted to whack myself........bloody hell......
