Hong Kong Day 4: Feel Blessed

Image
Soooo.. this will be the last story of my previous trip to Hong Kong. Yes, I've had only 4 days to explore Hong Kong. Yet, I feel grateful for the time I was being here. :D (psst, read the previous stories of Day 1 , Day 2 , and Day 3 by clicking it. Enjoy!) Facing series of fortunate and unfortunate events in Hong Kong makes me realized that I have to expect less but sense more. People say that universe shows us more when we expect less. So, in my last day of Hong Kong, I expected less. I just wanted to enjoy every second of my last day there. We headed to Tung Chung Station to get to Tung Chung Cable Car where it would deliver us up to Ngong Ping Village. We chose to take the crystal cabin on the go to experience astonishing bird's eye view of enchanting deep blue sea and lush green mountainside underneath our feet. Though, we had a little scared inside that it might not be able to support our heavy weight. Haha. Once we're inside crystal cabin car, we could not stop...

Soooo... have your read my journeys in Hong Kong ( Day 1 , Day 2 , Day3 )? It's been so long I know, but the story of it doesn't end yet. After having such an emotional state of up and down during the day, we spent the rest of the day by................eating good food. We visited Avenue of The Stars for the last time. I managed to eat shredded shrimp sold in the Avenue of The Stars area. It cost me HKD30 and I was so fine with it while my friends told me it was to expensive for just a shredded shrimp that tasted so so. Well, what could I said since I was happy at that time just by eating it by the river under the bright sky? Since we had saved more by eating McD during the first day to keep or budgeting on track, we had the right to eat great local food for dinner. We chose to check in to Dim Dim Sum Specialty store which is located right in front of our Airbnb apartment in Jordan. How could we didn't know that the good food we've been searching for 3 days lied ahe...

Hong Kong Disneyland: Happiness Overload

Image
People won't believe that you've been to HK unless you visit its famous attraction: Hong Kong Disneyland. Yep. Disneyland was one of my biggest reason to step my feet on Hong Kong Island. I mean, who doesn't? Even of you've lived a quarter century of life, I think most of you still have the child part inside. And that part definitely wants to be treated equally sometimes, doesn't it? ;) So, we visited HK Disneyland on our second day.We've booked our tickets online before so we didn't have to bring so much cash. Yes, we were that scared to be robbed in a foreign country. :p But the thing is because booking online was way cheaper than buying on the spot. Moreover, we got additional 10% discounts because of being Indonesian. Fufufu... The excitement was on since the night before. We knew that we had to sleep early yet we could not. We just kept thinking about what would happen tomorrow. The next morning, we got up early and moved our ass off the apartment a...
