Backward post no3: Day 5 @ HK

Cultural tour (30/06/07)


In the bus, on the way to the temple... our 2 taiwanese friends found more taiwanese... and the singaporeans found more singaporeans.. so, there are 5 taiwanese + 3 singaporeans +2 malaysians (including me) in this pic :)
The temple gate where everybody stopped to take photos..
Thunder and I with the temple's brochure.. waiting for the vegetarian lunch to be served...
The food was rather nice! But the chili sauce was very salty and not spicy at all.. o_O


The yam dish (on the left) was very nice.. and as usual, we could not finish the food...





Thunder and I standing in front of the main temple.. Many of the caucasians went to "kao chim"... The temple itself...


After the temple, we went to Lam Tsuen Wishing Tree...


The real wishing tree is no longer healty.. so, we can't throw our wishes up..Instead, we write them in this scroll and hang on a wall... Me with my scroll... (it was raining....)
Me hanging my wishes on the wall...
They have 2 sides to the wall and different categories...



The very beautiful public toilet... and some students talking happily outside it... Later, we realised at almost every tourist spot, there is one such nice toilets...

The next stop was Lantau Link Visitors Center and Viewing Platform...
The famous Ching Ma bridge.. connecting New Territories and Lantau Island...


It was raining the whole time we were there... Couldn't get even one nice picture.. :(

The cultural tour ended and we proceeded to Tsim Sha Tsui by ourselves.. for shopping and dinner... We went to Temple St for some shopping when my China cousin called me.. So, Thunder accompanied me to have dinner with my cousin and his friends... It was one of the most lavish dinner I had ever had!

Seriously, it's my first time eating lobster... It was delicious! There was also a HUGE crab flown all the way from Kenya.. and a few more dishes.. everything was sooooo GOOD!! We didn't take any picture though cause erm.. we were shy.. by the way, my China cousin is about 40+ years old.. So, Thunder and I were rather out of place sitting with 4 businessmen talking about business and gambling.. and politics... We just concentrated on eating.. :) My cousin also ordered a very nice dessert soup for both of us... Soooo satisfying... :)

End of Day 5@ HK
