8D7N Macau / Hong Kong Trip @ 25/5/2008 ~ 1/6/2008

Hong Kong… here I come again. Hurray! This is the 2nd time I visit to Macau / Hong Kong for the sick of going + shopping and also to refurbish + repackage the previous unhappy memory which I had with Anonymous 2 years back in Hong Kong. It was originally a 7D6N trip with 2D in Macau + 5D in HK. However, we changed our mind to extend another day once we reached HK in view that Nix is only available to tour us around during the weekend. So, we forfeited the MAS return air ticket depart from Macau and re-booked the AA flight depart from HK.

Err… sightseeing wasn’t my main objective in this 8D7N trip as I’ve already been to both these country and visited most of the tourist spots… So, what’s more can I do in HK? Shopping! Of course… : P This trip, I’ve spent nearly MYR 6K in total include air fare, boat + land transfer, food, Macau accommodation, buying special ordered Joey Yung’s thingy + watches and cloths for mom, sis and myself. Lucky that Jo’s fiancé allow us to stay at his apartment in Tsuen Wan, HK which has actually save and spare me quite a big sum of monies in this shopping spree. Hehe… : D

Besides than shopping alone, I’ve also visited to few tourist spots like Wong Tai Sin Temple ( 黄大仙庙 ), Che Kung Temple ( 车公庙 ), Kowloon Park ( 九龙公园), Sham Shui Po’s Apliu Street ( 深水埗鸭寮街 ) etc which I couldn’t manage to pay a visit 2 years ago. Not only that, I’ve also tried things which I hasn’t try before such as call the minibus to stop at where we stay ( 叫落 ) and ate those famous local cuisines such as Sham Tseng Chan Kee Roasted Goose ( 深井陈记烧鹅 ), Lucky Dessert ( 发记甜品 ) 榴槤飄香 ( Flowing Durian Aroma ) + all sorts of Mango desserts, Sha Tin Roasted Young Pigeon ( 沙田烧乳鸽 ), Lin Heung Tea House ( 莲香楼 ) Dim Sum + 千层糕 ( Thousand Layered Cake ), roadside 艇仔粥 ( Tang Zai Congee ) + 炸两 ( Zha Leung ) + 牛俐酥 ( Ngou Lei So ) etc. Oo… I missed those food leh… Yummy~~~ : D All thanks to Jo’s fiancé, Nix, our half-HK citizenship part-time guide who always say ” Thank you for boosting our economy... ” whenever we spent our monies in HK. : P. So bro, how’s your fitness level lately after almost a month on your Nintendo Wii Fit huh? Hope you did get fitter for your lovely pre-wedding photograph shooting with dearly Jo. : )

Overall… I don’t feel any repetitiveness / boredom even though it’s the 2nd visit. Instead, I felt my leave wasn’t long enough, my luggage wasn’t big enough and my money wasn’t much enough for me to continue the shopping spree. : ( Sigh… how I wish I need not to go back for work and have more money to spend. Anyway, thanks again to my fellow travel mates, Mich & Col + Nixon and our private HK guide, Nix + Mich's ex-colleague in HK, Nigel. : ) Omg…! My purse and saving account is both diagnosed with Congenital Heart Disease ( “hole in heart” disease ) and it’s really ache…Ouch…!! >.<
