Ivene, me, Sze Huey (pretending to be really sad... HaHa), Hy and Debbie! @ TST Harbour waiting for our ferry to come.... :)
HY, me, SH and Jimmy in front of the clock tower... see the difference in our height o_O
We took the chartered ferry and our first destination was Po Toi Island.... We spent about 1 hour to reach the 1st island.. On the way, we chatted with the tour guide.. getting information from him of good places to eat.. HaHa! and practising our cantonese speaking skill ;)
1. Po Toi Island
It was a hiking trip as stated in the email... But the weather was about 36C!! Freaking hot!
Meng, holding my umbrella cause he couldn't stand the heat.. while I walked without an umbrella! HaHa
But the view was breathtaking! really really worth all the time under the scorching heat...
This is a very nice photo! the angle and the arrangement.. cause it was taken by me! haha :P
The Palm Cliff.. the rocks resemble the Palm with the 5 fingers... the 4 crazy person climbed nearer to the rock while we stayed on safe ground..
More climbing and more rocks.. then some crazy people decided to take another path to climb up the higher rocks! I was stuck at one of the lower rocks cause I was super scared.. scared of heights ah! Jeremy passed by...
And Jimmy helped my back to a safer rock.. we got a little tired and squatted down to pose for a photo..haha
The crazy people up on the super high rocks!! I was sitting down there waiting for them to be back..
On our way back... view still as breathtaking.. sun was still as warm!
the 1st dish was corn soup and the 2nd was chicken! seafood lunch? Where?
Then, came the prawns.. crunchy prawns.. yummy!
this is a plate of super yummy, bouncy sotong ball! they looked so plain but it was one of the yummiest dish that day!
Sweet and sour pork... one of HK ppl's favourite.. always served...
vegetables! after being carnivorous for so long, a little vege was very delicious... HaHA
The best dish- Abalone! 1st time eating a whole abalone although it's quite a small one only.. yummy! (^_^)v
After lunch, we had an optional walking tour to a temple on the island... Before we went on the tour, the tour guide recommended us a dessert stall...
This is very very smooth taufu fah... i don't eat tau fu fah but i tried this and it's superb! if you like taufu fah, this will be excellent! it's called san shui tau fu fah cause they use water from the mountain...
I bought "putt zhai gou" instead.. often hear about it in HK drama but this is my 1st time eating it! I don't like red bean but then this is worth trying.. the texture is very good and the taste is just nice.. not too sweet.. :)
On our way to the temple....HY, SH, JX and me! took so many shots at this point cause the cameraman purposely wanted to make us stand in the sun for a long time! -__-
The cameraman mentioned previously, HY, me and SH.. very green and picturesque backdrop of mountains... :)
The sampans bobbing at the jetty...
3. Tsim Sha Tsui (Avenue of Stars)
We went back to the Avenue of Stars to take more photos of the "stars" on the ground.. the previous time we were here was at night and it was too dark to see the "stars"..
Shadows of Jx, KH, me and Jimmy... nice windy day~~~~
4. Jordan Road- dinner! :)
this is the wantan mee that the tour guide recommended us... it's a very small bowl of mee which we should finish in 2.5 spoonfuls... but erm.. cannot la...
But then it's yummy! not as salty as the others... and the prawns in the wantan is nice :)
After dinner, we went next door for desserts...
Chinese egg custard~ with almond...
Pure chinese egg custard~
I didn't order the custard cause I don't like the one in Singapore! But actually these are SOO much nicer! I like them! But I ordered the fresh milk which is also very nice! :)
After dinner and dessert, we went to Portland Street.. and to Temple Street.. see see look look.. bought a birthday present for WX after not very successful bargaining with the stall owner..
Passed Man Ming Lane... drank herbal tea on the way...
I like the one at the top left hand corner.. can't remember the name though.. The pretty 3-coloured ones are too sweet though.. and the one with the peach is not bad..
Coming out from Krispy Kreme, we smelled something very very smelly! Means good smelly tofu were nearby....
I bought the smelly tofu and shared it with Jx.. one of the guys were quite impressed by our ability to eat!! HaHa :)
Another typical 吃东西 day in HK~
