Day 1 - Hong Kong Macau Trip

Last Year during Idul Fitri Holiday, me and hubby decided to have a short vacation to Hong Kong and Macau after spending a few days with family at hubby's hometown... we decided to go because that was the only time we had since I the regulation at my office made me could not take regular day off until september 2015 (WHAAAT)...

Anyway, we took a midnight connecting flight From Surabaya to Singapore then Hong Kong.. One day prior to the departure day, I was sick (i felt so worried,not worrying about my body but I was afraid if my mother in law asked me to cancel the trip.... which I've been waiting and counting down to...). I felt so weak all day and end up going to the hospital next day in the morning because I couldn't bear it anymore... stayed at hospital for a half day, I asked the doctor to give me strong medicine so that I could recover instantly...

Still Sick in the morning... this girl still want to made it for the trip so bad.... 
And.... Thank god the doctor give me permission to go but he packed so many medicines for me to be taken until my body feeling normal again.. that night I was still feeling very weak but I fake that I'm fine and made them believe that I can handle it... My hubby was in doubt whether to continue the trip or cancel... but, I insist to go (and I win).... so here we are...

At Singapore Airport Waiting For our Flight to Hong Kong... Body Strength : 30%

Meet the Captain M
We landed at Hong Kong International Airport on around 9 am (July 30th 2014).. We took a bus to city After Enough rest at Singapore airport and sleep all time on the plane I was feeling better..  thank god..

Our Bus From Airport to City
we chose to stay at Yiu Fai Guest House because it is located right above the MTR station at Nathan Road, I want to save time to go anywhere in this short 3 days break (at first hubby did not agree with me because he want to stay at a nice hotel during holiday but again with all reasoning I gave him,, I win.. haha)  actually my second main reason was because it's cheap so we could allocate our money for shopping,,, hehe

1st Stop : Avenue of Stars

After dropping our luggage, rest for a while, shower and quick lunch at yoshinoya nearby, we went to the famous must visit tourist attraction in Hong Kong, Avenue of Stars which is located along the Victoria Harbour Waterfront. It took only 10 minutes walk from our guest house..  

Just Like Hop On Hop Off Bus in Singapore








2nd Stop : The Peak Tram 

How we get there? we took MTR to central station + another 10 minutes walk to reach the peak tram.. that day was really crowded, full of tourist from mainland china, it took us 1 hour and 30 minutes until finally we got the peak tram ticket and another 30 minutes queue to the ride... same thing happen on the way back, long queue has been waiting for us.
$ 80 per person For Return Peak Tram Trip
 Queuing for the Peak Tram... going up and down, both long queue


There's a peak market inside the building, many tourist buy souvenirs for their loved one here

3rd Stop : Mongkok area and Temple Street Night Market 

Finally we made it to the last stop of our 1st day... I was really really really tired like I was about to black out, but it was well paid off by all the experiences we had that day,, 

Pardon my tired face
I bought Fluffy doll in that night market and named it Mungkok...hehehe

That's it for our day 1... Thanks for stopping by... 
See you..
