We started day 2 of our holiday by joining a half day tour and the 1st stop was to a tea restaurant for breakfast... The price of the set meal is un believable... For HK$50, you get a bowl of porridge, steamed rice rolls, BBQ pork bun, siew mai and shrimp rolls... It's really filling, so the price is super worth it... In addition, the restaurant is quite packed, mainly due to the elderly who are there slowly having their meals, chatting and reading the papers... This scene is a sharp contrast of the hectic lifestyle of [Singaporeans], who usually just eat, pay and leave...
Once we're done with our hearty brunch (I'm taking tt meal as brunch as there's no lunch), we headed to [Victoria Harbor]...
And opposite from where we are, it's [Kowloon]!!! Amazing isn't it???
The next stop tt we visited is [Qian Shui Wan] (I'm not sure of the English name though... *Blush)... The attraction there is similar to tt of our [Har Pa Villa], only many many times attractive...
You have me posing very normally...
And me doing something very retarded... This doesn't count as an unglam shot, right??? *Fingers crossed*
The gods of happiness and luck are side by side...
We are crossing the bridge of longevity... Hoho... This means tt I won't be dying young le... Heke... ^_^
Oh old man from the moon... When will you tie the red string to my leg??? LOL... =P
Our next stop is @ [Aberdeen]...
My sis attempting to be taller than me, not tt she's short or anything...
The attraction here is the river taxi... And this brings back the vision of [Clarke Quay] doesn't it??? Haha...
Us on the river taxi...
The 1st thing tt we saw while we're on the river taxi are rows and rows of yatches of very, very rich ppl in [HK]... Looks like [HK] has a lot of rich ppl nia... *Sigh*
However, further down the ride, we're able to see the boats tt are in worse condition... This, as explained by the tour guide, are the boat houses of the poorer population... Now this brings back some vague discussion which I've witness or read from somewhere abt the morality of such sight-seeing... To witness the poverty in their daily routine...
Surprisingly, the person operating the river taxi is a lady!!!
We accomplished all those within half day and after returning back to our hotel for a a couple hours of rest, we headed out again, this time walking along [Nathan Road] all the way to [Ladies's Market], the bigger, better version of [Singapore]'s [Pasar Malam]... I have to endure the stench of the fermentated toufu 1st before actually reaching the street, yucks!!!
My, my... Look @ how pack the place is!!! There's no sign of the crowd reducing in numbers as the time strikes closer to 10 pm!!! Plus the closing time of the shops there is like @ midnight!!! Haha... Guess I can now fully understand why [HK] is termed as a shopping heaven...
A typically shop selling lots of stuff... They're even selling the street signs!!! LOL!!!
