Day 8: 13 Jan 2006

Finally reaching the last day of my trip.. din't expect myself to complete writing about the whole trip.. haahhahaa.... well on this day we are scheduled to return to singapore... i was like yeah!!! cos i think i was really sick and yearning to come back...

this day originally we plan to go to the Kowloon Walled City Park and later to Mongkok to buy the 老婆餅... but again it wasn't as plan... cos they wanna watch 倚天... so we left BL, SP and Sam to watch while Linda, QH and me went Fa Yuen Street to do some shopping... din't really get much there except for the Ah Dang white board... and linda after much deliberation bought a "commondo" bag.... and we reach the hotel at exactly 12pm...

very quickly we pack our remaining things inside, and went to book our hotel transfer and check out of the hotel... than we went over to 富城 resturant to have some dim sum... but poor me cannot eat!! cos i'm still feeling a bit sick and my throat was bad.... i just ate Char Siew Pao... which was not too bad...

after food we left to walk to Mongkok for the 老婆餅 and later to 奇華 for the egg rolls and pineapple tarts... and these is our "shopping" result




While i'm done with my shopping, Linda and QH have more things to buy.. Linda wanna buy tidbits and QH her chewing gum... so i told her we wait for them at Macdonald while they go shop... while we were sitting at Macdonald we sort of get "scolded" by the cleaning auntie.. cos at that point of time SP is still helping us buy our "food" and the auntie say if we are not eating we should not be sitting there.. we told her our friend is getting our food but she still throw us a look... so much for there service eh... imagine its from Macdonald somemore.. i know their place is packed lah but they could use a more polite manner... so just out to make the auntie angry i purposely eat very very slowly my steam corn... see wat can she do to me... hahahaa... me real bad...

anyway shortly we left the place to head back to hotel to pack our luggage with our new purchases and wait for the transfer to come.. though we are about 1 hour early... and here is the result after 8 days...



And so after tat is the uneventful journey to the AP and back to SG....

Some after tots about HK itself...
Find HK very very similar to SG.. in tat their shopping areas are malls much like SG unlike TPE...

And the pple there really walk at a super fast pace.. you tot singapore is "kong bu".. well its worst over there... i mean its already after work hours.. do they need to walk so fast??? and the worst thing is the pple there do not mind brushing against you just to walk pass you.. i don't like tat.. i think in sg we always keep ourselves in a safe distance.. nvr surpassing someone comfort zone... but its like totally different over there...

and the last thing i need to comment is the generally the pple there are a bit rude.. however, i must comment that their service line pple are pretty polite (except for the macdonald auntie).. which i think its something SG shld learn... quality and polite service is necessary for a service oriented country like SG... but i think we still have a long long way to go....
