hongkong day one

I was contemplating whether to post about the trip at all, but knowing I'll definitely miss this trip in the future, let's go.

So, before embarking on this adventure, I have to admit, I was feeling really apprehensive about it. Maybe it's because I hardly knew anyone, or maybe it's because I thought it would not be fun at all. Whichever it was, I'm really glad that I was proved wrong. Because through this journey, I was able to know the rest better and also have a whopping good time. All while being able to learn new things and gain new insight :')

BUT I'M ALSO VERY LAZY, so I guess I'll just dump the photos and just give a short commentary for them.

This is my second trip to HK, the other time, I went with my family when I was in Sec 1, and I can barely remember what I did, except maybe riding the Peak Tram and visiting the Madame Tussauds museum and the Avenue of Stars. Ohhhh and eating the most delicious cold noodles ever in Tsim Sha Tsui. IT WAS DAMN GOOD. Ok that's about it.

DAY 1

Right, so 11pm, we gathered at Changi Airport with all our luggage, checked-in and got ready to board the plane.





We sat at Starbucks for awhile, just taking pictures and chatting.



Then we got on the plane, and I sat next to Stacy.

So for the next 4 hours, I ate and then slept.

The sandwich/burger(?) was daaaaaamn good I swear, I'm clueless as to what kind of meat is in it, but it tasted divine.




[hehehe with our pillows on the plane :)]


[Hong Kong International Airport]





First stop: Some residential area






[With the owner of the house]

She's so kind man, we sat at her place for awhile and she shared with us her experience in staying in her modest flat and also served us po lou bao and lemon tea.



Had lunch then we visited the next place: Hong Kong Museum Of History

It was just like any other museums, but some parts of it were quite interesting. For example, there were many old furniture, toys and food from the olden days of HK.








[Got to feel how sitting in a tram feels like]


[At the hotel]

The hotel was not bad man, it was only about 5 months old and they have pool tables, rows of Mac computers, Wii and stuff all free for the staying visitors to use ;)



Played pool during midnight and we kept laughing non-stop. I suck at it man but pool is funnnnn.

End of Day 1, I said I would be brief and it seems like I've achieved my goal heh.
