From Macau, we went to Hong Kong via ferry boat which will take about an hour. It was a giddy kind of ride. I had to sleep so that I won't feel my head burst and I took several candies so I won't vomit. The ferry cost around 800 to 1,000 PHP. It was clean and organized, we had comfortable seat and there is a television in front so we can watch.
We arrived in Hong Kong between 7 PM or 8 PM. The usual immigration procedure took place while leaving and arriving both countries. We took a train and a bus going to New Territories where we were supposed to stay at my friend's aunt home in The Beverly Hills, HK. It was a very cozy and nice three-storey house. She was so welcoming and she even prepared dinner for us. We met her two lovely children and her cousin. It was a home, away from home.
The following day, my friend's aunts toured us around the village and accompanied us from New Territories to HongKong to Kowloon side via train and ferry ride. Basically, we jumped from one island to another. Our first stop is the World Wide House or World Wide Plaza Central where most Filipino and its delicacies can be found. Our Second stop is the Avenue of Stars, where we should be... read between the lines "Stars", fallen stars... And oh, I remember seeing Jacob... yes, Jacob from twilight, just kidding, maybe he has a body like Jacob that I had to document. Furthermore, I and my friend had to separate with her aunts because we need to visit a lot of places in each of the 3 Islands. Next, we went to The Peak, we had to ride in the tram, enjoyed the view at the Peak and took our souvenir pictures. We also entered the Madame Tussauds (310 HKD) attractions so we could meet our friends like President Obama, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, etc. Then, we went back to our temporary home.
The Next Day, we woke up early, headed to the Hongkong Disneyland for a glimpse of it and some picture taking. Afterwards, we went to the Kowloon side for some shopping and food tripping. We ate street foods along Mongkok area, shopped in Esprit, Giordano and in the night market. We went back to the avenue of stars, tried experiencing sunset until dawn plus the colorful lights it can offer. Then, we grabbed a cup of coffee on our favorite coffee shop "Starbucks" and of course, our endless photo shoots.
And it is our Last Day, we headed to Ngong Ping 360 (Ngong Ping Village)- Lantau, Island (168 HKD) early in the morning via train and bus. We rode a cable car from the other side so we could witness an astonishing bird's eye view of the beautiful Village. We had to walk a couple of miles, climbed a hundred of stairs from one attraction to another. We visited the Po Lin Monastery, Tian Tan Buddha (Big Buddha), souvenir shop, tea house and pigged out for lunch there. Time check, oh no! We had to hurry up because we need to catch our ferry ride back to Macau for our flight back to Manila in the evening. Luckily, we made it on time and we arrived just in time for our flight from Macau International Airport to Clark International Airport via CebuPacificAir.
