For those whom did not travel to HK b4,dun worry about free and eazy over there as it is pretty easy...with a map,hp and money on hand,you wont get lost...most of the people know how to speak chinese(required to study till end of secondary) and some english thus u will be able to converse with them...Mtr are eay to travel as they have a good subway system and taxi aint that ex...so...why wait???haha
Another thing that i want to add,go to HK in july as it is the start of their summer sales,you guys going to shop till ya drop over there man..but this means burning a hole in your pocket too haha as i know of someone whom spend $1400 just on shopping itself....Broke broke broke...haha

Time square is a big shopping mall as the higher level it does the more exp the stuffs are(credits for ys for enlightening me on that) eg from zara to club monaco to burberry etc...so haha materialistic ppl haha theres a light for ya....

As there are still stuffs that i wanted to buy at Time square ,we headed there again...Next we headed to Paterson street.This is place where shops are in shophouses and u haf to climb up to go to those shops..If you are pretty brand oriented,you may wan to go to IT shop(is in caps,not small letter as there is another meaning for small letter) over there but keep in mind the stuffs are mostly out of season but selling cheap...The brands they carry are commes de garcon,paul smith etc
IT shop...
Take the lift to the 2nd floor??opps it is out of order
This mickey look pretty fierce,aint it???
Never know there is agnes b choc...but apparently there are like 6 botiques in hk...
Costing hk$16 each..i love lychee and rose flavour:)
We dined at Azabu Sabo nearby,,price range around the same as SPore...
Azabu sabo....
Chicken katsu don...think spore outlet is better
Crab plus egg,but i feel that i am like always eating the shell like tt...maybe is i think too much...
The combination for this is superb.. haha...shiratama ,macha icecream,water melon and nutty mochi...wha,,,,
Think this is pretty inconvenient as u will need a key to access to their toilet...the most surprising part is when u open the door and u find some 1 inside...
Somehow something gets wrong with our head,we wanted to go to the furthest station(tung chung) at the west which is at lantau island and by train(pretty ex to travel there and the exchange from honkong island to lantau island is really far)...pretty scary i must sae as there is only me and flabby and we are passing over the sea...wooo....There is a citygate outlets shopping centre over there.It is well known to sell brands like nike ,puma,burberry,club 21 at a much lower price...but the prob is they are mostly out of seasons...
The last station of Lantau island...tts like so far la...
Finally reached this place after 45 mins haha thou it seem damn long....
Shopping for a while we decided to head out to Tsing YI station for a walk,there is maritime square over there,it is something like our tiong bahru plaza..
Maritime squareIt was really raining heavily and we are totally drenched as we ran to silvercord....tts really bad luck as we brought umbrella to hk and just nice the day we neber bring out and it rained....We look really pathetic...Brewwww....dman cool after entering those shopping malls...those high ends shops assistants were looking at us as if thinking who these brats are,...hateed these feelings...But the dinner at AJisen saved our dae haha...the hot shiny soup of ramen and a cup of ocha...wha....juz nice...haha....
Time for some hot ramen....:)Never did i know the sweet corn goes well with ramen...hahaganpai....Decided to turn back to Harbour city and i am really glad that i head back haha...This place is reallly veri veri veri veri big ...Wad brands u wan u name u get it,from long champ,coach,burberry,lv,gucci,prada,YSL,emporio armani,hugo boss ,guess wha,,,,cant name it all man....
Wha...their wrapper damn nice la...haha my fav in the past:)
