Epic Entry Part 1 (Hong Kong Trip)...

Initially, I was a little reluctant to go for the trip as I'll be using up 3 days of leave for business not of my own... However, considering tt it's a family trip, I relented and decided to enjoy myself nonetheless... After all, if you don't have a choice, why make oneself more miserable by sulking over it???

I'm trying to con myself into believing tt I'll have more time to game in return for being good... =)

A pic before we actually check in...

This is taken after we've checked in and was loitering around those duty free shops... There's nth much for the both of us cause everything tt's on sale are either branded goods, goods designed for tourists or in other words, stuff for rich ppl who loves to visit [Singapore]...

Anyway, after some window shopping and stoning, we finally boarded the plane and this is how life on the plane is like...

I'm so engrossed with the movie tt they're screening... It's [Journey To The Centre Of The Earth], in case you're curious... A 2.5/5 starts movie la...

I managed to unglue my eyes from the screen and my mouth away from my food to actually spare some time for a shot...

If I'm not wrong, the movie should've ended liao... But the cam is position @ the wrong angle lor... I think I look better if my left profile is facing forward instead...

Somehow, I don't know why I can vaguely hear [SH] saying something along the line of 'I look terrible no matter which angle it is'... I do think it's my imagination la... LOL...

After 204 mins of seating in the [Economy Class] seat, we finally arrived @ the our destination... [?Hong Kong]!!! As we didn't really travel overseas much, we were a little lost when we realised tt we're supposed to clear the customs 1st before collecting out luggage... Of course, I do know now tt we have to clear the customs 1st before collecting all out barang barang... Haha...

After we got exited the [Departure Gate], we looked for the rep from the travel agency who's supposed to receive us and after finding her and being told to wait for a while more while she received more ppl, we continued to stone for a while more as my dad couldn't find some good background to take some pics... I mean, if the background doesn't have anything Hong Kong-y to it, the end result would be like taking a pic @ [Changi Airport] lor...

Anyway, after abt 15 mins or so, we're good to go and we boarded the bus tt would take us to [Kowloon], our destination of holiday... Having nth batter to do, I decided to take some pics to while away the 45 mins ride... Needless to say, I couldn't last tt long and fell asleep like 15 mins later... Zzz...





Oh look!!! Instead of multiple LED powering 1 colour of the traffic light, it's 1 whole bulb... A thing which [Singapore] used to have long long time ago... LOL...

And look @ how clustered the buildings are...

We're back in the city!!! Now this is a sign tt we're nearing our destination...

Haha... The moment we checked into our hotel and have totally settled down, we immediately headed out to the busy streets to grab a late lunch/early dinner combination before doing a little recce on the potential shopping areas in the vicinity...


In case you're wondering why I'm like wearing a jacket, it's because it's [Fall] in [Hong Kong]... You know, the season before [Winter]... So with temp around 19°C, it's a little too cold for comfort for me, a creature who's used to warm weather of 27°C and above...

I shall conclude here for this entry... Day 2 of my adventure is coming soon!!! *Squeals*
