Dream comes True

Since young, I always wanted to go Hong Kong. But don't know why and don't know how the dream just don't come true. Either no money or no people want to go when I want to go. Until this year... Audrey ask me want to go HK or not. I told her no money, very expensive. She told me she got cheap tickets plus accomodation. And I agree. So there we go....

The trip was schedule on 17th July to 21st July 2009 (Friday to Tuesday). I was so happy I can't sleep at night so I decided to go watch midnight movie "Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince" 12.10am till 3am plus. Reach home and start packing!!! I haven't pack a single stuff. Pack till 4am, chat with my friend on msn for a while and sleep for an hour before I rush to airport.

The flight is 9am in the morning and we reach HK at around 1pm. Was so excited when we reach there. Our hotel is in Mongkok, Langham Hotel (6 star)!!! Super nice. And then the journey begins, the never ending journey. Exciting and happy but damn tiring journey. Once we reach the hotel, throw our luggage and the walking begins. We are only allow to rest 1 hour a day besides than sleeping time. We walk from morning till night at least 11 hours a day!!! My legs is screaming for help but no one come and rescue it. Poor thing. That's a price to pay for everything. On the first day of arrival in HK, we got a news, a shocking and exciting news. There will be a TYPHOON NO 8 in HK at night. Audrey damn sad after hearing that news. But I was excited!!! I only see those in TVB series!!! I can't believe this is the first time I go HK and I have the chance to see what I can only see in TV!!! Audrey and I purposely go down to the lobby outside to smoke and feel the wind. Although its not No 8 yet; probably No. 6 but it's already damn windy.

During our stay there, we goes to alot of places... EXCEPT Disney!! sob sob. NO DISNEY in this trip. But, we still go a lot of places. From Mongkok to Central to Causeway Bay to Tsim Sha Tsui to Jordan to Yau Ma Tei to Wong Tai Sin and back to Central... During the 5 days 4 night there, the walking that we do is equivalent to 3 months walking ere. Believe it or not? BELIEVE IT!!!

The MTR in HK is really great. Fast and efficient. Every 3 minutes comes one. I just LOVE HK. I will sure go visit again. But this time less walking and more sight seeing. Wait for me!!
