I LOVE HONG KONG! I had the best time ever and I want to go back. I've even said I want to live there! I'm in love with HK. The Star Ferry is my absolute favorite. I'm completely mesmerized by the crew and the ropes and the water. It's the best ride in the whole world, hands down.
Here's what we did....
Ocean Park - love the dolphins and seals. Grand Uncle (G.U) Dominic came with us and showed us around. I got to play "firefighter" too. And then, we saw my favorite animal. The Pandas. They were so cute.
Disneyland - Dumbo is the best! And Autopia. And the carousel.
The Peak - Paw Paw and G.U. Dominic came too. It was super windy up at the top, but they had an awesome playground up there. The Tram ride is crazy steep. But fun. Afterwards we went the the Zoological Gardens and saw a jaguar....that was sleeping. We had to walk up these super steep hills to get there. It was hard (okay, not so hard for me cuz I was in the stroller)
The Big Buddha - Paw Paw and Gung Gung hike up the stairs with us too. It was a hairy ride on the bus (after a long ride on the MTR). I climbed some of the stairs, but not all of them. Brendan was the lucky one. He got to ride on Mommy's back!
We also saw lots of relatives and friends. Daddy's "Sam Yee Mah" lives all the way out in the Gold Coast. They have a really nice apartment. The building has a playroom that is way decked out. Then there's Auntie Ester and Auntie Emily and her kids Cameron (!!!!) and Charlotte. And Mommy's Grandma, Ah Tai. I was a little scared at first, but I warmed up in no time. Brendan and I had so much fun playing with tissues! I also saw G.A. Margaret and G.U. Raymond and Uncle Wesley. And I got to see G.A. Belinda and G.U. Jeffrey and Uncle Ryan. It's funny cuz Uncle Ryan is friends with Uncle Ken, Daddy's college roommate. We had dinners with him too. I did make a few new friends....Reika and James. I met them when we went to have lunch with Mommy's old CUHK roommates, Auntie Florence, Auntie Shanna and Auntie Clora. Reika is 5 and she gave me candy. :) I really like her. Oh, and I also met up with G.A. Mary. She and Paw Paw took Brendan and I to meet some of Paw Paw's cousins. I had fun...cuz I got chocolates!
I also had a lot of fun eating at Hui Lau San. This yummy dessert place. It's everywhere, but there was one near our hotel (the YMCA Salisbury) and the Star Ferry. I requested dessert almost every night. Mangos are my new favorite fruit.
I think that's it...for now. I'll have to check my notes...there might be more! Stay tuned!
Here's a picture of Reika. She's a nice girl.
