Travel Post : US arrival - New York - 2 November 2013

Before we fly to the US, I already told myself that I am going to take lots of videos ... guess what, it didn't happen hahaha... I only got a few! Sharing our arrival in JFK New York via Delta airlines! :)

This is the first time I edited a video. Oh well, yeah, I just removed our voices from the background and replaced it with a Katy Perry song :)

Visiting Hong Kong - day 3

Day 3 - final day in Hong Kong.

We had our breakfast first at Tsui Wah Restaurant. They serve local food here. I was surprised that when we went out of the restaurant the queue outside was very long. It must be popular among locals.

Visiting Macau - day 2 of our Hong Kong trip

Ruins of St. Paul Cathedral in Macau. The area is a UNESCO World Heritage site.

My friend has never been to Macau so we made sure to include it in our itinerary. There are 2 ferry terminals going to Macau from Hong Kong. One is the Hong Kong Macau Ferry terminal and the other one is the China Ferry Terminal which is just a few blocks away from our hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui. Of course, we went to the nearest one :)

Hotel Review : California Hotel Tsim Sha Tsui Hong Kong

I was not planning to create a post about the hotel where we stayed in Hong Kong but since the online site where I booked the hotel will give me points when I post my review, I decided to create one. Also, I thought this might also be helpful for others.

I am not doing this review to bash the hotel but to just share our experience.

Alrighty - I knew that hotel rooms in Hong Kong are quite small (at least for the 3 stars below) and quite expensive. I tried my best to look for a reasonable priced hotel - I did not want to book a one star and 3 stars were quite pricey already. So I've found and booked the California Hotel. It is a 2 star hotel and the price was just fine.

Hotel location : very good location! It's located at Tsim Sha Tsui - it is surrounded by malls and stores and it's the touristy area. Also, the Tsim Sha Tsui station is just a stone throw away from the hotel. I believe, if you take the D1 exit, you'll see the hotel on the right across the street. The sign is quite small but it is between the Standard Chartered Bank and a jewelry store.

Can you see that yellow wall on the middle of the picture? That's the D1 exit of Tsim Sgha Tsui MTR station

Visiting Hong Kong - day 1

It was my 2nd time in Hong Kong. The first time I went there, we were on a package tour, this time around - we were on our own.

I have to remind myself not to book a flight that leaves very early in the morning as we are now staying in Central Singapore. Our flight was 6am - we paid 30sgd for the cab going to the airport. Ouch!

Sunrise.
