Day 4: Lantau Island + Lan Kwai Fong
- Tuesday, January 09, 2007
Times Square in the day...
Me with my wanton soup for breakfast..
All the girls!!
The pretty christmas decorations at inside Times Square...
Me and Sel in the streets of Hongkong..I love taking shots like this!=)
After breakfast,I finally went to the pharmacy to get medicine for my diarrhoea..I had to take 3 tablets 3 times a day..."Take one small,one medium and one large, all white colour"
Here I really must thank Team B for taking such good care of me especially during the period where I was sick...
I wanna thank...
1) Yanxiang for buying a packet of orange peel for me to make me less puke-ish
2) Chris for taking care of me during the bus rides and even tolerating the smell of my puke as she held the plastic bags for me as I puked and then tie it up and throw it away
3) Yanying for constantly reminding me to take my medicine and keeping my flask in her bag and asking me from time to time if I needed water
4) Mabel for offering her scarf to me when she thinks the air was chilly and asking if I was fine from time to time
5) Selena for offering her hugs each time I vomitted...=)
6) Joe for lending me his thermos flask and making sure I am okay
7) Cass and Chee Kian for making me laugh despite my being sick
and the rest of them who offered their care and concern to me in intangible ways...I really do appreciate it dudes and babes...=)I really felt like a princess ("ge-ge") then and it's all thanks to you all...I believe, apart from the medicine which improved my recovery tremedously, your kindness have also touched my hearts and made me more cheerful and optimistic about my recovery...
The cable car which took us to Lantau Island...
Me and Ck in the cablecar...
A view taken from the cable car...
The Big Buddha Statue from a distance...
The sights along the way
Me and the big statue in a distance...
Many people in their walk to the Big Buddha statue...
The 700th 7-Eleven store in HK!
Another sight along the way...
A closer shot of the amazing statue...
In the grounds of Po Lin Monastery...
The 9 course vegetarian meal that we ate...It was really yummy!!My favourite dish of course had to be one with tofu!!!
After lunch, we had to climb up a long flight of steps to reach the Big Buddha...
We finally reached the top!!!=)
The three of us and the back of Big Buddha...
Some scenery shots...
Some other statues spotted...
As the sun begins to set...
Joe and I amidst the sunset...
Both of us and the beautiful scenery....
See how sunset mode on my camera can really change the colour of the photo and create a more romantic feel to the photo!!haha..FAKE Sunset!!
After the Big Buddha, we walked to another side of the area recommended by Charles as a place with bamboo poles with Chinese words written on it and arranged in an infinity sign..After about 15-20mins of walking, we finally reached the place!
It wasn't really bamboo poles la..more like wooden boards actually...but it was nonetheless a place worth taking more photos of...
Trying to take an artistic shot of the poles amidst the sunset...
I was really too tired by then...so I took this shot of my shoes while the rest went to walk within the infinity sign....
Me and Chris!!!
The last of the enchanting sunset before the skies became darker...
Me, Chris and the darkening skies...
Some kind of mian whose concept follows the Yong Tau Foo in Singapore...You choose at least 4 items then they will cook it for you...I din't really like it though cos I found it way too oily and my stomach wasn't feeling too good too...
After dinner, we were off to Lan Kwai Fong even though we weren't really dressed for it!!!It definitely is the most happening place in HK!!Guess we just wanted to go there to take a look and not really party like crazy...
We realised that the people there are either really good-looking or they dress really well or both!!!The standard there is so much higher than in Singapore sadly...heh..
Many people queueing up to get into this club which played really good music...In the end we ended up at some pub which played Latino music..It was a super bad choice when a few doors away they were playing r&b stuff...It was really funny how our night became not so happening afterall...=)
Me and Cass!!
Me, Yanying and the Lan Kwai Fong sign...
I think this is a rather cool shot of Chee Kian.Even he thinks so..ha...
This basically sums up Day 4 of Team B's trip to Macau and Kowloon...
