Yin & May's 1st Day In Hong Kong!!!

Went to Hong Kong for a holiday with May! Yay! 5 days there :) So, started the day there...at 2.35AM. So basically, 1st day didn't really count for much. Reach the airport, find our tour guide who was suppose to take us to the hotel. He wasnt where he was suppose to.. he came rushing in with apologies and all.. till now, i still don't know why he was late... So we only reach our hotel at 3.15AM.


Our hotel is called Kimberly Hotel. Thank God, it's in a nice,safe street. I don't think I can take another hooker street. Room's very nice. Kinda small. (Freezer is in the toilet..what the..) And no, the panda does not come as complimentary, this picture was only taken the day after hehe..


So the next day, we went to a restaurant called Chao Inn. Their Dim Sum's are 50% off till 12pm. We only woke up 10am, So we rushed there, and the place was paaaacked!! Dim Sum's were awweesomee!!


Oh yeah, the menus there are all in chinese.. Neither me nor May can read them. We had to call the waiter to help us out :P Hehe,so funny. Everyone was busy ordering, and we were busy trying to catch the waitress attention..not to order, but to explain every single dish on the menu. ehem, quite embarassing. Anyway, we got what we wanted, and the portions were huuuuge!!! Yum Yum!

This is Har Gau. Yums! See the size of the prawn in there?!

Siew Mai. Prawns in there are huge too!!!

This is a piece of Chee Cheong Fun. They don't cut it for you like back in KL, so you hav to cut it with your chopsticks, which is preety imposible back in KL cause the whole thing will break. Why? Cause the flour water which they put is too damn little or too watery. The Chee Cheong Fun here are nice and strong, so no matter how you cut,the inside won't break.

See the size of the prawn??!! (I'm pretty obsesive on the sizes of prawn aren't I?)

Mango pudding in a shape of a fish. (One fish is missing a tail cause May has eaten it)

So, after eating breakfast, we decided to head up to Hong Kong. Oh yeah forgot to mention, we're staying in Kowloon. To get to Hong Kong,we have to take a ferry there. See picture below?

The buildings you see are in Hong Kong Island.

Central Pier in Hong Kong island!

May wanted to go to Hollywood Road cause she said there are some good bargains there. We didn't see any though..

Christmas is coming. They planted many many of this Christmas flowers along the road side. I bought something from Marks & Spenser!


Roar! Me want lunch!


The reason we came to Hong Kong Island was to shop and to climb up the peak. There you can see the whole of Hong Kong, which was pretty amazing.


To go up, you need to get on the Peak Tram


Ehehe, before going up to the peak, we decided to visit Madame Tussauds. Ehehe, we did some funny stuff in there. May went a little ballistic when she saw Brad Pitt. Unfortunately, Angelina Jolie was beside him. And she said no worries, she will photoshop her off the picture. Hahaha!

Wassup, Kylie

So, after playing in there, we went up to the peak. And the view was spectacular. Not to mention,how damn cold it was up there. Hey, the weather in Hong Kong's not cold in the day time, but it is at night!! Thank god, didn't bring my woolies.. May did. Heeheehee..

View in the day time. We stayed there till night time to catch the lighted up buildings at night

After taking pictures, we took the ferry back to Kowloon, and it's back to the hotel! Can't wait for tomorrow! (well, not so much,cause it's shopping mostly..)
