Some random shop along the way to Ferry Port

 Normal breakfast set Hong Kong people love to have

 Carbo meals early in the morning

Booked the ticket in advance and went to collect it on the day itself

Everything is so convenient and I walked to the ferry port

All the way from Tsim Sha Tsui hostel

The view from the inside

It is quite comfortable considered that it is fully air-conditioned

And I can nap at least half an hour on the ferry itself

The Venetian Macau Mall with impressive artificial sky

Those clouds seemed to be moving when we stroll along the river

The Pork Chop bun is a bit too hard to my liking

Moral value of the story is: Do not buy things from the roadside

The streets in Macau on a quiet calm evening

This shop is famous for their pork chop bun

So we decided to give it a try and yes it was delicious

The menu has too many things to choose from

We usually go for the simplest one or chef recommended dish

Hence, ta-da here we are

Juicy and crunchy pork chop bun

No regret at all ordering this

People said if you are at Macau

You should try entering their casino

And yes I cannot enter Singapore casino anymore

So we ventured into various different casino on the island

And stopped by at Cascada to have our tea time and relax

It was damn hot outside, average temperature 32 degree Celcius sia

 His set of tea time delicacies

My set of tea time delicacies

The ambience was awesome

Super atas feel and the price also super atas

Fortunately I managed to secure the free tea time coupon

Thru early bird purchase of our ferry tickets

Some sort of water and laser show in the mall itself

 When you are at Macau
 Die die must eat their portuguese eggtart
 Else you will regret upon returning Singapore
 Personally I love the crust of this tart

Saint Paul Cathedral ruins
All you need to do is to study the map
And watch the signages around you
Surely you can find your way thereqq

After so long, this is still my favourite picture

The cold temperature in this picture soothen the eyes

Night time here was awesome

A lot of light pollution I must say

But not a bad experience dropping by Macau for 1 day trip

Any longer than that will be a bit boring 

Back to Hong Kong for midnight movie session

Hong Kong Day 3 - Ocean Park

All dressed up and ready to go out

Went to try the breakfast at hong kong Tim Ho Wan's outlet

Tim Ho Wan

Ground Floor, 9-11 Fuk Wing St

About 10min walk from Shum Shui Po MTR

Not very impressed with the menu for that morning

 HK Chee Cheong Fan looked ok
 Taste so so only

 This is the one everyone rave about when it first came to Singapore
 I would say this is totally different from the one you can eat in Singapore
 Hence, I will not visit Tim Ho Wan in Singapore anymore after trying this

 This carrot cake still ok and tasted just like those in Singapore

 I don't really fancy siew mai but this is good
 I don't mind eating 2 of these here

The century egg congee is always the best

I don't quite like heights and I usually will freaked out

Luckily this was slow and I wasn't that terrified

 Though all dolphins show are about the same
We still go for the live show and still wow-ed

 Too bad we were seated quite high above and the dolphins looked tiny

The good thing bout Ocean Park is that

Every rides have short queues and sometimes

I mean sometimes, you can have the whole coaster to yourself

Waiting time for every ride is less than 10 minutes

Btw, the drinks here are damn expensive and they have very few water dispenser

 The Harbour Night View, a long walk from Tsim Sha Tsui

Symphony of Light and Avenue of Stars

1920 to 2000: Walk along Avenue of Stars and Tsim Sha Tsui promenade

2000: Symphony of lights show

To be honest, the light show is a piece of crap

Don't bother to visit this place for the symphony show

You will feel deeply disappointed

Nonetheless, we still enjoyed ourselves taking pictures along the harbourview

Since we were already here and there was nothing else to do

 The pigeonhole living place in Hong Kong
 The place is so packed with signboards

Anyway it's Mid Autumn Festival everyone

Enjoyed the snowskin mooncake from Hong Kong

If I wasn't wrong, it's the chocolate cheese flavour

Paise have to sit roadside cause no money dine at hotels

How to get there

On Foot - From MTR Central Station
It’s a pleasant walk from Central to the Peak Tram Lower Terminus. Along the route, there are a few famous Hong Kong landmarks.


From MTR Central station, exit J2 and walk up to the ground level. Turn right, through Chater Garden, cross Queen's Road Central, and make your way up Garden Road. You will pass the Bank of China Tower and Citibank Plaza on your left and St John's Cathedral on your right.

Best option: The Peak  Tram ride to Victoria Peak then public bus on the way down

Walk to The Peak Tram lower terminus (15 to 25 minutes). From Lippo Centre Tower (near Admiralty station Exit B), walk over pedestrian crossing to other side of Queensway Street (towards Hong Kong High Court).

Walk along Queensway street to the direction on your left (towards Bank of China Tower)

Follow Cotton Tree Drive, taking the gentle turn right.

Across the street from Hong Kong Squash Center. On your left, is the The Peak  Tram lower terminus

Ride the Peak Tram to Victoria Peak – HK$53 (one-way) with Sky Terrace 428 admission. View latest rates on The Peak Tram website.

Cheapskate option: Public bus

Walk to Queensway Street and wait at bus stop directly in front of Admiralty Garden and near the Lippo Center.

Ride CityBus bus #15 to Victoria Peak – HK$10.6

The look of it from the outside

The tram tickets

It was so steep that you can't be standing n ride the tram

Everyone will have to be seated down and enjoy the ride

Finally we reached the Peak overlooking Hong Kong city

It was dinner time therefore we had to mam a bit first

We had our dinner at the peak

So-called famous Wan Than Mee

by the Mak's also can be found at Westgate, Singapore

The soup version Wan Than Mee
And below is the dry version Wan Than Mee

Both not impressive

Still prefer our local taste

Sunset at Victoria Peak

There we many visitors when we arrived
They jammed the place and we hardly take any picture
And so we climbed up and take the pic from top section instead

After half hour waiting for the tram to get down, we walked to the MTR
And proceeded to Temple Street and Ladies Street for supper
Wiping sweats and waving goodbye to a good night view
