hongkong was fun!! =D

i spent most of my time there aimlessly walking around =]

every morning i just get up look at the map

see which mtr station to go

then walk around there

saw many things by doing this tho =]

they had directions to the local attractions at each station so there was things to see and do

the trip kinda started out with a trip to macau

where i played slots

and this screen

covered my losses

and gave me my pocket money for my shopping.

all of it.

the next day we went to ocean park!

sat a few rides and it was fun!

the next day ( i think)

i went to victoria peak after walking around hongkong central for the whole day waiting for my cousin to end school

and went to the madam tussads museum

ITS IP MAN OMG hahahaha

behind me is the mid level escalators in hongkong.

is this series of escalators that starts from the bottom level (city area)

to the mid level, where all the apartments are at.

talking about transport
