♥ Hello There Everyone! ♥
Welcome back to my 5 Days Hong Kong Trip blog post and here's part 2, 'Day 3-5'!
If you have missed out part 1 'Day 1-2', click here to read it before reading this! ^_^
Don't forget to watch my Hong Kong Trip Day 1-5 Vlog at the end of this post!!
♥ Day 3 - Exploring Hong Kong/Shopping Day ♥
Rise and Shine! ☀️
We didn't did much in Day 3, its more of exploring the cities of Hong Kong such as shopping, eating and visiting places.
We had breakfast at a noodle shop nearby our hotel.
My dad, my mum and I had the beef noodle and my sister had fishball noodle.
All of us shared a bowl of fishball soup too.
These glass bottles seriously reminds me so much of Indonesia, much misses!!
After breakfast we went a supermarket and got some things. Oh yes, Cream Soda is literally everywhere in Hong Kong. I don't know if this is a Hong Kong drink or do they have it in other country but i kinda regret that i did not try it out :( I think it taste like ice cream on top of a soda drink, right? Basically a soda float. Any Hong Kong readers? please tell me >_<
After that, we took the mini bus to a mall which leads us to a MTR station.
On the way, the mini bus drove passed a school and its always interesting to see schools from another country. Hong Kong schools reminds me of those Korean high schools where you'd see in dramas. They were wearing their "winter uniform" as it was the cold season. If you're a kpop fan, it also reminds me so much of Jackson from GOT7 because he's from Hong Kong!!
Finally, we arrived at the MTR station!
Getting our tickets.
We took the MTR to visit Wong Tai Sin temple which my dad's friend brought us to. We heard that it was one of Hong Kong's most famous temple so we went to checked it out and also at the same time accompanying my dad's friend's wife who is a buddhist to pray at the temple while we walked around since my family are Christians.
Arrived at Wong Tai Sin temple!
I was told that if you touched this, you'l have good luck!
We only spent about 10-15 minutes there and went to take the MTR and head off to a mall for lunch.
Had our lunch in the mall.
With Auntie Sally! ^_^
Can't get enough of Hong Kong's Lor Mai Kai, its so goooood!!
After lunch, we all went shopping. What's a holiday without shopping right? ;) I literally had my crazy shopping mode on to the point where i didn't took many photos when i was shopping!! And the photos i took were all really ugly so i deleted them hahaha! But i did took videos for my vlog tho so see them in my vlog!
Finally dinner after shopping!
We had dinner at the same restaurant on our first day but a different menu ^_^
There were a lot more dishes but i was too busy eating to snap photos hahaha!!
Had a really scrumptious dinner. We went to 7 eleven to grab some snacks for the night before we head back to our hotel.
Couldn't resist it, i had to get my all time favourite korean banana milk!! I had my first try of the melon milk, it was nice! In Singapore, the easiest you could find are banana and strawberry flavoured ones so i was glad i found the melon flavour ^_^
♥ Day 4 - Ocean Park ♥
Hooray, another new day that i was so looking forward to!! I've seen google pictures of Ocean Park before coming to Hong Kong and i was so excited because the rides there looked so fun!!
We had our breakfast at a really nice shop nearby our hotel. It caught my sister's attention as we were walking around looking for a place to eat. The shop sells a variety of breakfast food!
I had Ham, Eggs & Bread. Wanted to order this because the person sitting beside us had this and it looked so good because i love runny egg yolk so it was so tempting to get it! :P
My sister had Ham & Egg Sandwich while my mum and dad had noodles!
After breakfast, we finally went to Ocean Park!
These pair of shoes were literally my friend throughout my trip hahaha i wore them for 5 days because it pairs with everything! Love how the frilly socks matches with it too. Anyways, i didn't expect Ocean Park to be THAT COLD. Like seriously, it was so cold and i think its because Ocean Park is located at the mountain. Wished i had wore something warmer that day -_-
Saw cute kids on their learning journey at Ocean Park! HOW CUTE!!
Queuing up for tickets!
Buying our tickets!
So glad that my dad is fluent in Cantonese hahaha!
Our tickets! :D
The map of Ocean Park. Ok seriously, Ocean Park is so huge i didn't even had enough time to explore the whole entire place!
The first thing you'd see when you first enter Ocean Park so i obviously had to snap a picture because the background is so pretty hehe.
You have to take the escalator to go through the Aquarium before heading over to the theme park.
Inside the dark aquarium!
This was so interesting to me as it was my first time touching and seeing a hatched shark egg! It was so cool because I've never thought that a shark egg will look like that hahaha! When i touched it (you can see it in my vlog) it was really smooth and slippery hahahaha!
Here's a bunch of photos i took at the Aquarium!
Another fascinating thing, a spider crab!
I didn't took quite a lot of photos as most of them were dark and blur because some of the sea creatures were moving and it was hard to capture a good image. Hence, the photo below is kinda blur hahaha sorry!
It was so cool looking at these beautiful sea creatures that I've never seen or even heard before! Had a good time in there.
We came out of the aquarium which leads us to a souvenir shop and i saw these really cute dolphin soft toys which reminded me of Haru (Epik High Tablo's daughter) who used to starred in the show 'The Return Of Superman'! If you're a kpop fan you would've probably thought the same thing as i did hahaha!
We went to see pandas after that!
I was so looking forward to seeing cute pandas but.......
the pandas didn't want to come out :( -cries a river-
We could only see them through the CCTV screen :(
I was shocked by the age of the pandas tho hahaha!
But nevertheless, we saw a monkey!
After that, we were still a little confused because we still have not seen any theme park rides and saw people queuing up for the tram that leads you to another area of Ocean Park. So we follow the crowd and queued thinking that it was a submarine ride that goes underwater all along. (i'm laughing at myself at the moment)
Oh my, and then we were out at another station and we're like, "What....?! This is a tram ride?!" And before that my mum was like, "Omg ok its going underwater soon!!" when it gets darker but we're actually just in the underground tunnel. It was so funny we kept laughing non-stop hahahaha!!
Reaching that station, we finally saw rides!! We were at Polar Adventure and this ride was the first one that caught my eyes but i wasn't able to try it because the queue was insane!
Our first ride was the 'Arctic Blast'! Its a really fast rollercoaster ride!
(lmao at that person looking into my camera hahahaha)
It was so fun!!!! If any of you ever come here you should seriously try this ride!! It was so fast that my mouth was freezing cold because of the cold weather as i was shouting throughout the ride hahaha super fun!!
So after that we were just wandering around looking for other rides and this ride straight up caught my attention, the 'Hair Raiser' that goes upside down at a really high level and speed. I will never say a yes to that ride hahahahaha!! Like wow, bravo to those brave people who rode that!
Then, we saw these game zones that my sister and Marilyn wanted to play but ended up not. Hahahaha so we watched some other kids play the games and some even won cute soft toys as a prize!
As we wandered around we were a little hungry so we had a little break. My mum called our names from afar, i was so hungry i literally ran towards her after i saw her carrying a tray of wedges and onion rings, yum!!!!
Next ride was the 'The Rapids' where i called my dad and mum to join us along! This was a water ride that will make our clothes wet but the poncho sold there was so expensive so we didn't have a choice but to go without a poncho which most people actually did hahahaha.
This was another fun ride! Other people were spraying water at us with the water guns above us and our clothes were so wet, almost soaked! With the cold weather temperature, i was literally shivering non-stop hahaha!!
We wanted to try other rides on the other side of Ocean Park so we went off following the map despite us freezing cold hahaha!
We arrived at Adventure Land and saw this ride, 'Wild West Mine Train' which is so high up. It looked so scary, not only because of the height but also because it was located near the sea, another ride i will never say a yes to hahahaha!!
This was one of the rides i wanted to try the most, the 'Raging River'.
There's this really long slippery slide that goes down splashing at a high speed. Really fun!!
I rode it only with my sister because Marilyn was too scared but....
As i told her it wasn't that bad and it was really fun she finally dared herself to try it so i went for the ride for the second time together with Marilyn as well as my sister! ^_^
It was kinda scary as it goes upwards but at the same time so fun!
And then there's me over there taking the photo above. Hahahaha feels like a 'behind the scenes' kinda thing yeah?
Us posing for a photo!
Was so sad we couldn't go for any more rides as it was getting dark :(
As we walked back, we saw a really beautiful scenery!
Had to stop to snap a picture, hahaha!
Look at that beautiful sunset!!
We also saw sea lions along the way. They're seriously one of the smartest animals!
Mirror selfie in the toilet before we go off hahaha!
Then, we left Ocean Park back to the entrance where the water fountain thingy lights up at night, how beautiful! It lights up into different colours. Ahhh ocean park was so much fun!! :(
We left for dinner!
♥ Day 5 - Back To Sunny Sinapore! ☀ ♥
Sadly, it was our last day in Hong Kong and we didn't really did much on that day.
Just more shopping and eating like typical tourists would do hahahaha!
Started off the day eating food that my dad bought in our hotel room hahaha and then we went off for a little bit of shopping at a mall near our hotel. Just basically exploring the morning streets of Hong Kong with people buying groceries and seeing students walking to school.
Went into a store that caught my eyes, the clothes and shoes sold there were literally so kpop style-ish. Everything there felt like it belonged to those kpop fashion designers, it was so cool!
Also went to shop for snacks to bring back to Singapore and to also eat them on the plane hahahaha!!
Omg y'all, those Takoyaki flavoured chips are so good!!!! They come in a pack of chips along with the takoyaki seasoning where you add to the potato chips, seal the packet and then shake it. I think you can find it in Singapore because my mum got them (had to look for it here, was so yummy!!) but i think its also not easy to find it here. It may or may not for some of you but i'm pretty sure you could get them somewhere!
The moment i saw Arizona tea i literally went insane!! Maybe not for some of you but for me i went crazy as it is something you really could hardly find in Singapore so i obviously had to get them. Bought it back to Singapore and so many people straight up asked me where i got it hahaha!
I got this flavour, Green Tea with Ginseng and Honey! It was my first try of Arizona Tea and i would say it isn't that bad but honestly its also not what i expected it to taste like tho hahaha. But oh well, the bottle is so pretty i couldn't resist not getting it hahahahaha!!
Like come on, it was only for like SGD $2?!?! A big bottle for only $2 is really wow. I only calculated that it was only $2 when i went back to Singapore, if i had knew it earlier i would've gotten more bottles of other flavours :( Especially this blueberry one because it sounded way more delicious than the ginseng and honey one tho. Or maybe i'm wrong but i would like to try it someday!
After those shopping, we went back to our hotel to check out before we leave for our flight.
Left the hotel with heavy heart. I was so sad because the stay at the hotel was fantastic, totally missing the bed hahahaha!!
After checking out of the hotel, we went off to the airport. Such an awesome thing because the whole airport has free wifi hahaha i was a happy girl at that moment.
We had our early dinner at this restaurant called 'Macao Harbour' at the airport as we didn't had our lunch.
There were two soups. Super love the clam chowder, yum!!
After dinner we took the train to another terminal for our flight. Our flight was at night.
My ticket ^_^
Getting ready to go :(
Reached the terminal and we had to take the airport bus kinda thing that brings us over to the plane to board it.
I quickly snap a picture before i board the plane, hahaha!!
It was such an experience as I've never in my life sat at the last row of the plane before. Whenever i travel i'm always sitting at the middle section. But the advantage is that i get to go to the toilet faster as its super near hahahaha.
Not my first time taking a night flight but i super love night flights because as the lights in the plane are almost entirely turned off , it was a little dark but yet so cosy and for some reason the air-conditioner feels cooler than day flights. Is it just me or....? HAHAHAHA!
And omg guys, i was so happy because i got to watch fireworks from disneyland on the plane!!!! I could see disneyland from above and the fireworks was incredible. So beautiful to watch it from above because i couldn't get to watch fireworks when i was at Disneyland in Day 2 but i'm glad that i finally did hehe! (anyways the fireworks aren't in the photo below hahaha)
Munching on some snacks i bought during the day. I spent my estimated 4 hour flight watching A Pink Weekly Idol & Running Man at that time hahahaha. As I've already mentioned earlier, this takoyaki flavoured chips are sooooo good!!!
Also ate jagabee, super love this!!!!
And also some marshmallows hahahaha i kept eating non-stop. All the flavours of the marshmallows were so good my favourite ones are literally all of the flavours, i'm not even joking. The flavours were grapes, strawberry, apple, chocolate and pudding. I think i forgot to include the pudding flavour in the photo haha!
Apple flavour ^_^
And ta-dahhhh, we're back in Singapore! Happy but at the same time sad that I've left Hong Kong :(
And that concludes my 5 Days trip to Hong Kong! Here's a vlog that i did during the 5 Days of my trip:
