HK Pt 2

Back for photoposting...

After Repulse Bay we took a boat trip to view the "boat people" of HK, and spotted some yachts belonging to those filthy rich staying at Soho. Compare those yachts to those hive like public housing projects and you get the idea of the rich-poor divide...


Well after that we went to some time-wasting jewel shop, and touched this "biggest" geode in the world . Supposedly you can feel some pulse... I dunno, maybe it was my own pulse i felt.

"bo feeeel-ing"

Then it was off for lunch and then the cable ride to Lantau Island to see the Big Buddha. News came in two days back that one unoccupied cable car crashed from 50m... Cool. Maybe we spoilt it, with all our rocking and tilting... Anyway the cable car ride was 25min... If not for the rain and fog, the view would have been quite nice. Reached Ngong Ping Village where we took a short walk and a climb to reach the Buddha.

"It's a bird, and no, not the one in Liang's hand.."

After that was a spot of shopping at this centre with all the outlet stores of major brands... Blew a fortune there. Anyway we decided to go Disney's ENTRANCE to take a few pics...



Day 3:

Went to Central at Hongkong Island, shopped, went up Victoria Peak, visited Lan Kwai Fong...

"Peak Tram, some nice cushy-looking thing"

"which had a long waiting time..."

"when coupled with bad weather..."
"lead to forced smiles and a foggy view..."
"tried our best..."

I'm damn pissed at paying the cash to see such a view of the exalted night cityscape... Still we managed to snap a few shots within a building itself. Like kukus, we lined up against the glass window and used our black clothes to neutralise the reflection... and Liang snapped this. Nabei.

"Lan Kwai Fong"

Well LKF is like MS in Singapore. Except it is very cramped. Full of angmohs with HK girls, office folks chilling after work, jams and of cos the two drunks above...

Day 4:
Was spent shopping at HK island, and even more shopping at Tsim Sha Tsui. Visited Avenue of Stars and watched a lame light display...

"PRCs don't hit PRCs..."

"Bro, sad to say you got the look (of a Chinaman...)"

"Mao"(told you so)

"Sad imitation of Tony Leung's face..."

"Better rendition of Andy Lau"

"Skyline..."

Day 5 and Food:
Well the last day was dedicated food and lao po bings buying day...

FOOD!!!

Doesn't Liang's face cramp up? It's astounding... looking at his identical expression before eating. Now for the real food.

The roasted meats are DAMN nice, never tasted all that in sg

"The REAL stuff, not the small tiny one at Chinatown"

"The 'hu-s' or pastes...very smooth! Red bean, sesame and almond"

"Liang's spastic face again. Dim Sum to rock one's sock off..."

Missing HK man. Thank you guys for the mad and fun company! We'll travel again soon!
