17 - 20 May 2008, Hong Kong trip

After my Taiwan trip in April, I went to Hong Kong with 2 colleagues. We arrived in Hong Kong on 17 May and took Airbus A21 to Prudential Hotel (Jordan MTR) in Kowloon.
After check-in, we went to The Peak. Had dinner at The Peak and head down to Lan Kwai Fong. Then we went to Ladies' Market, however it was near to their closing time. So we called it a day and went back to hotel.

18 May (2nd day), we went to Lantau Island. Finally, I get to go to Po Lin Monastery to see the big buddha. Many years ago when I visited Hong Kong I did not go, so this time I made it. Had vegetarian lunch and went back to Tung Chung. There is a Citygate Mall at the Tung Chung MTR. Shop a bit and left to Mei Foo, went to a friend, Mandy's dessert store. However, she was not there. After dessert, we went to Granville Road (Tsim Sha Tsui MTR). Then to Fa Yuen Street and Ladies' Market.

So fast, last day of our trip. Early morning, we went to Wong Tai Sin Temple. It was still raining. As we are so early, many shops were still not open yet. So we went back to hotel. Rest a bit then took a cab to airport. Long queue to check-in. By the time we get our boarding pass, we do not have much time left. Quickly, went in and go for lunch and then to our boarding gate 27. To realise that our gate has been changed, quickly went to gate 1. Then board the plane and home sweet home.
