i realised i didnt blog about my hk trip. i guess most people already have a rough idea of the major attractions in hk so i'll just give a short description of my trip. overall, the trip was quite fun and an eyeopener (i havent travelled overseas for 5years!). we spent day 1 at victoria peak(breathtaking picturesque scenary, my first time being on a such a high peak, the tram ride was rather exhilarating esp since the path was so steep that the tram was almost vertical! day 2 was originally planned for ocean park but the rain thwarted our plans so we spent the day shopping instead (mostly at h&m and harbourcity). we didnt get anything from harbourcity thou, cos it retailed high end fashion goods. we ended the day with the victoria harbour laser shop, which highlighted most of the major skyscrapers but it became quite a drag after some time. day3 was spent at ocean park, exciting theme park rides, interesting animal show with seals and dolphins, the first time i could see so many jelly fishes (it reminded me of avatar, haha). day 4 was spent at disneyland. although we paid considerably more than ocean park, it was quite a disappointment thou. perhaps i would have enjoyed it more, if i was younger, haha. disney certainly achieved their goal in creating the unique child-like magical experience, complete with dressed-up princesses, life-size floats, elaborate castle structures. however, probably due to the fact that it caters to children, the thrill factor of their rides tended to rather muted (including space moutain, an indoor in-the-dark roller coaster) thou i've to admit their 3D musical experience was terrific. all in all, i still enjoyed it although more thrilling rides would have been fun. (: day 5, our flight was in the morning and we almost missed it! we didnt know that 2 transition trains had to be boarded before we could reach the flight gates. i think they should have informed us of this transition beforehand. 30min for such a long transition is really quite a rush. oh well, thank God that we still managed to board the plane in time. (:
