Woo Hoo

What a month May was! Full of excitements!

First of all, I had my Graduation Gift ( which is an EOS 40D Camera )!

That's not it! It was followed up by an surprise trip to Hong Kong! The outbreak of Swine Flu or A(H1N1) did not stop us! I really prepared for it, I brought a lot protective masks, brought 2 bottles of Alcohol and brought many soaps! I had my new traveling bag too brought in Paris. Way too expensive isn't it?


The flight took us about 1 hour and 45 minutes. It is supposed to be 1 hour and 30 minutes only.

But the aircraft took another route to avoid strong air or air turbulance.


First day in Hong Kong was so energy draining! After our plane landed. The travel agency fetched us and dropped us in GuangDong Hotel. He told us, "I'll fetch you at 5 o'clock. We will be going to Victorias Peak". My reaction was like "what?!" It is already 4:30 pm and I am so starving! Well, we don't have any choice. We ate in the nearest restaurant. And the total expenses really shocked me! All in all it cost us 2,000 php! For just a simple seafood with a noodle topping, plus one Lemon Iced Tea and 3 Glasses of Mango Shake? For goodness sake!


Then and there after we ate. Just in time, the bus fetched us and explained a lot of Rules to be followed in Victorias Peak (He's english is pretty bad). But he is so HOT! He gave us our Tickets because we will ride a tram going up to the mountain! After we reach the peak, we went in a Wax Museum and a lot of superstar imitations was there including Obama!


Then we went outside and took pictures (Because the view was way too spectacular).

And it was really cold up there!


At around 8 pm, the bus fetched us and brought us to Hong Kong Night Market!

It was really cool! A lot os stuffs are in there in cheap prices! We bought a lot of things in there. I wanted to buy a lense for my Camera but it was so much expensive. Around 7k php.

We went back to the Hotel at around 10 already and i quickly fell asleep!


The next day, I woke up at 7 am. I took an early bath and the hot water is really cool!

And I took advantage of the blower in the bathroom to dry my hair. Next stop today is Ocean Park!

I don't have any idea what it is but I am sure it will be exciting!


At the first glimpse, the only thing I can see from the outside is a flying Air Balloon. Don't have any idea what it is! When we entered the park! It was like Disney Land! An amusement park with a zoo inside! We first took a map, but I took 8 pieces (For souvenir purposes). The first thing we saw was the Air Balloon. We thought that was just for display, but we didn't know that it was a ride! So we decided to try it. When it was our turn. I remembered one thing, I am afraid of heights! When the balloon lift up to the sky (It was like 10 stories high) my legs were shaking crazy! But I managed to calm, but still I am holding in the bars! We took pictures of the wonderful view.


Another ride that really tested me is "The Abyss". It was my sister that forced me to ride this one!

Want to know what this ride is? You will be sitting on a chair attached to a long pole about 15 stories high, the chairs you are sitting in to will rapidly accelerate upwards and stuck at the top from the moment, and when you hear the steam, hold on to your seatbelts as the chair will drop at aroung 80  mph! And will continue to bounce for about 3 times!

It made my legs shake really!


So this ends the first part of my doodle! Tune in for the follow up!
