9th July 2007, Hong Kong

We skipped the breakfast provided by hotel. In fact, the hotel only provided breakfast for a person. It charges HK$20 per pax. Fair but we had enough of hotel breakfast already, and I longed to try the local breakfast!

We chose a nearby cafe and ordered cheese + ham sandwiches, butter toast and a bowl of macaroni in soup with ham. Nothing fancy! ;p


After breakfast, we took the citybus at central to Ocean Park.

It was a Monday and the queue was already so long. Can you imagine the queue when it is weekend? Luckily, there are a few buses. It took us less than half an hour to get on board.

After 20 minutes ride, we reached Ocean Park, which is celebrating its 30th Anniversary.



Ocean Park is so much bigger compare to Disneyland. We only spent half a day in there. We only walk horse see flower, unlike in disneyland, we get to take all the rides and so on. Among all the crazy rides, we 2 only dare to try on the raging river. We spent 30 minutes to queue up for the Raging River, and the ride only lasted less than 10 minutes. ;p


The views from the ocean park tower.

Sea Jelly Spectacular...I think they are pretty!

Lunch @ Ocean Park, it seemed like there is no proper restaurant to lunch at 'x'

The Amazing Birds Show. The owl looks scary!

Giant Panda exhibit! JUMP JUMP JUMP! We got to meet the 2 young pandas: Le Le and Ying Ying. They are so cute! If you would like to know more about the pandas, click here.

Sky Fair. The hot air balloons are so colourful. Sigh, we missed the time to go onto it.

Atoll Reef, a four-storey aquarium contains more than 2000 fishes.


Finally, we came to the Ocean Theater to watch the famous show performed by dolphins and sea lions!

We left ocean park after the show and picnic at Golden Bauhinia Square.

Like this photo very much because it is very Hong Kong (HAHA)

We watched the flag-lowering instead of the flag-raising ceremony.

We took a ride on the tram! Quite interesting.

Dinner @ 镛记 (Yong Kee) which located at at Wellington Street, Central. There are a lot of people. They gave us a number and asked us to wait for our turn. We ordered the roasted goose and it was really really delicious!

We had the mango dessert as supper @ 许留山. It is everywhere and we gave it a try since kennysia recommended the place in his blog previously. The mango only reminded me how juicy and nice smell that we had in Bangkok!

Lastly, look who is on the bamboo scaffolding?!

Just Kidding!

Come to think of it, why they never want to use the steel scaffolding, was it because of Jacky Chan has made the bamboo scaffolding famous? And If they change it to steel scaffolding, then they might lose their identity as Hong Kong?
