A word of thank you

Once again, I must thank everybody for making my Hong Kong trip so enjoyable, especially my dear Aunt Surinna! Thank you for teaching me so much useful things in life too! Hope you will read the articles I gave you too. Haha...

Anyway, after I came back from Hong Kong, I still went to a chalet before I started to shake off my holiday mood, haha... Thanks to all for making the chalet an memorable one! Photos time again!


Thanks to Jared and Weishan for setting up the fire!

Thank you myself for being the Satay boy, anyway, the marinating was fantastic, thanks to the girls


Shu Hui and her special way of panging sausages, really a fantastic way to pang leh, the sausage turns out to be big and soft. Nice!

Hong Kong Trip Final Update



I have been mentioning about the 昂平缆车 in my previous posts and finally I have a chance to go on the cable car ride last Thursday, it was the greatest cable car ride I have ever tried. The architecture was awesome, imagine building cable car rails linking mountains to mountains. One would be thrilled if you look down beneath from the cable car, the height is just too scary. I would recommend you to try the cable car ride if you visit Hong Kong, anyway, its one of Hong Kong's new attraction.


Behind us is the 昂平缆车站




Up there in 昂平, there is this 昂平市集, we are now in 昂平市集

On the last day of my trip, we met Aunt Anney, Uncle Benny's wife and Aunt Winne at the airport for lunch, they are my mother's childhood classmates. After that we went to Hong Kong airport's new terminal 2, there are quite a few new attractions inside the new terminal, one is Asia Hollywood, which actually introduce the Hong Kong movie industry and the second one is Aviation Discovery Centre. We went to Asia Hollywood, the entrance fee is just S$4! Anyway, after touring the theme centre, it is time to say GOODBYE to my relatives and my DEAR Hong Kong. Haiz... See you next time!

Hong Kong Trip Update 6


We had a big family dinner at the old Tung Chung harbour, the food there was GREAT!

Last week, I still went to China, Zhongshan, the birth place of Sun Zhongshan, its very near to Guangzhou. We went there to visit my 舅父, my 舅父 owns a few buildings over there, he rents rooms to the locals and live his 退休生活 up there in Zhongshan. Very good right? Money still comes in after retirement, this is called investment, haha... We were also there to visit my 大伯, he lives in Panyu, two hours drive from Zhongshan, my 大伯 owns 2 restaurants in Panyu. The trip to China was fun, because everything up there is SO CHEAP! And how can I miss my chance to buy and eat crazily up there?


On the ferry to Zhongshan, 1 hr 30 mins ferry ride...


在船上也能吃到美味的牛肉面!!!


First and second from the left is my 舅母 and 舅父


We took this type of trishaw back to my 舅父's house, a very interesting mode of transport in China


Uncle Benny also rent rooms to the locals, this is the rooftop of his building...



On the second day, we rented a van and took a 2 hours ride to Panyu to visit my 大伯, photos taken in the van...


My 大伯's house, his house was awesome, my cousin's room has carpeted floor and furry walls with a cute little staircase that link to this room I am in now (in the photo). This room is awesome too, it is the theater room.


That night we went to a very famous Western restaurant in Zhongshan, its called "Venice"



My order was a mixed chop and a soup


This was planted in my 舅 父 garden, guess whats this? ITS 夜来香!!! It is really fragrant and its only fragrant at night! The fragrance was so strong that we can actually smell it in the house at night. AMAZING flower even though its so small! 夜来香, 我为你歌唱~~~ Ahaha...


Breakfast I had on the third day...


Back to Hong Kong!!!


This time, I had 瘦面 on the ferry...
