Day 3 in Hong Kong : Eat & Eat & Eat some more


bus to the beach which we spotted from high up Dragon's Back


ended up at Shek O  


came to look see look see only... nobody wanted sand nor water on us... 😂😂😂... cool temperature at 24 degree Celsius... i like!!!



Lunch @ Lulu's Cafe... small but mighty... porkchop rice was yummy, toast was yummy and their dog is cute!!!




took mini-bus to the nearest mtr station... very happy to be on all forms of Hong Kong public transport on this trip; train, tram, bus, mini bus, sedan cab and london cab!!! 


only 5 of us at Sai Wan Ho station because Michelle got left behind at the previous station when she slowed down for the train-door closing beeps and we didnt... 😂😂😂



thanks Cynthia for this artsy emo shot!!! 



luxury shopping in the malls with toilet signs so small we missed them and ended up walking in circles... 😅




for tea, we had Michelin star roast geese so famous and yummy Claire lugged a whole goose (HK$790 = S$135) back to Singapore... 



Michelle was so cute... she moved into frame and ended up being blue-nose reindeer... 😂😂😂



Kuromi Cafe> Desiree's favourite character (again)... the teos talked so much about it till i think i'm subconsciously attracted to it as well... 

just when i said we should stop eating and eating while shoving down the last paiseh piece of the roast goose, we chanced upon Venchi, my favourite pistachio ice-cream parlour 5 minutes later and I just had to have it and so did every one... slap slap myself... 😂😂😂


3 share one large ice cream; 2 scoops of dark chocolate for them and 2 scoops of pistachio all to myself... yum yum yumzzz 😋😋😋



Thanks for accommodating to my obsession to 打卡s at all the train stations that has this mosaic background... 😍😍😍 



Mong Kok police station 


spotted these police recruitment posters... was wondering if these might be drama ads.... no, they are real police officers.... so good looking seh?!?!?!




shop shop around...plenty to see but bought nothing... 

cake in the shape of 小乳猪... so cute... 


so cute.. i wanted to buy but then i remembered that i no need to give ang bao... wahahahaha


then it was dinner time!!! All, except Claire, was not hungry so it took us quite a while before we decided on this cafeteria because of their cute version of teh peng

mine!!! 😍😍😍



放假 开心 好玩 就是要 这边拍 那边拍 左边拍 右边拍


Day 3 in Hong Kong : Dragon's Back Trail



on the bus to brekkie and on the way we saw primary kids lining up to enter school, a building among other buildings...


 am really curious how a Hong Kong school looks like from the inside... everything indoor??? field??? parade square??? playground??? 


there, there... what made you so sad ?!?!?!



authentic dim sum breakfast experience in Hong Kong unlocked... 


servers decided that we shall have 3 value meals to save $$$ and so we did... 😂😂😂




cab waiting took quite a while during morning peak hours but lucky to 一 来 就 来 两 辆... =)   

hong kong cab rides are expensive... we took 3 cab rides on this trip and each cost between S$30 to S$45... =S 

surprised that the toilet cubicles were clean enough with sufficient wipes... there's counters to keep track of usage on each cubicle too... 👍👍👍



this trail is supposedly so super friendly that our cab driver told us it's 走山 (hang san) and not 爬山 (pa san)...




claire took charge of my haversack which contained half of our group's water supply... 😂😂😂



 











daring 后羿 wanna-be who 'walked' up this mountain with a bow & arrow just for this pose... 就不怕连人带弓箭一起滚下山?!?!?





a medusa in the wind... 







the view was worth the walk up this mountain, especially in this amazing weather... dont even mind doing the 8km route... 😎😎😎

hear the wind!!!
