Last week, straight after Auntie Maybel's full day wedding event, we went for a short trip to Hong Kong. Though not as exciting as the last one (Mr. G's first trip to HK), it was still definitely a good short break from daily routine. It was our first time visiting New Territories area and we spent a night at my cousin's place. Indeed, Hong Kong apartments are really tiny... and i kinda felt we were quite fortunate to have considerably spacious flats here.
The only touristy place we went this time was Lantau Island. I must say the island hasn't got much attractions except the Big Buddha statue. However, there were a number of constructions going on which i guessed the island would definitely add more interesting places of interest in the near future. Of all, i love the crystal cable cabin! And ya, if you planned to take the crystal cabin, you can actually skip the queue! Obviously we didn't know and starting queuing when we arrived... Luckily, we realised it after 5 mins and of cos, headed straight to the counter.
About this trip: We aimed not to do too much shopping and well... we kinda of did it or should i say 'he' kind of did it, haha... I was there mainly to stock up my beauty products (my classic oil blotters!) plus foodie sessions. But then... as we popped by outlets... i fell in love with some clothes which i thought if i don't buy, i might not get them again in Sg..... So... heee, ya know eh? :)
Then as we walked pass shopping malls, we see some random sales going on... Comtemplating if i should buy a bag for myself, hmms... thinking once, thinking twice... Mr. G grabs it for me, haha.. *Thank u dearie*
Oh ya, i'm surprised i took only 200 odd pics for this 4D 3N's trip, heee... Well, my norm is taking like a hundred a day! It's an "achievement", isn't it? Hee hee...
Anyway, here are some of the 200+ photos we took :)
