2nd day in Hong Kong
So here goes my second day in HK. Today's weather is colder than yesterday's. I was practically freezing and wished i had brought gloves. haha.
So today, we took the train to ocean park. The trains here are super fast and they come on time. But one thing bad is the drivers don't really care about the safety. They practically just close the doors whenever they feel like and a small boy nearly got squashed by the door. So basically, we gotta move really fast. And the escalators are super fast too. When compared to Malaysia, our escalators are like tortoise walking. Here, the escalators are so fast. Best part, I have phobia of escalators. I gotta go on the escalator really slowly. So you guys can imagine how much of trouble i went through.
Ocean park is a really nice place. Rides are almost similar to Malaysia's. So we didnt really spend much time on the rides. One of the reasons are because its similar and the other is, we do not have enough time. The place is really big and we have to queue up as its peak season and there are many tourist. So highlights of ocean park is basically the panda park and also the dolphin show. Really adorable dolphins. We had lunch at Panda Cafe. Food was not bad and it's really expensive. Chicken rice there is like RM40! In petaling street, i can have like 8 plates of chicken rice and china town. I took super alot of pictures which i'll upload on facebook when i'm back in Malaysia.
Weather is super cold. Its practically 10 degrees here. Since i'm living in the area call new terrotories, its even colder. Its usually 2-3 degrees lower than the central of hong kong. Owh, the wind is bad. Unlike malaysia which is "panas dan lembap sepanjang tahun", here is super dry. I have to put lotion as frequent as possible. Max is every hourly.
Dinner was awesome! Had dinner with all the relatives in hong kong. About 20 people came. Ordered a set dinner and it tasted awesome. Took pictures but then again, imma upload when i'm back. Dinner was at "chiu chow garden" which serves chiu chow food. I'm seriously super full and thats why i'm not sleeping yet. Gotta let the food digest before i go to bed or else i'm gonna have a belly.
So i guess i'm gonna end this post like that. I'll be updating again tomorrow. Tomorrow would be a much easier day. Not much is gonna be done except for eating i guess.
Night world.
