好玩好吃好買2014 - 最后一天 (HK Last Day!!!)

Well there is not much scheduled for today, but just our flight back to Singapore! Before we went to the gates, we decided to settle our breakfast first since we wouldn't be getting any food on the plane.

Our breakfast

My breakfast
And eventually it was time to depart and proceed to the gates. I was actually quite excited to see the airport DEPARTURES as I have always seen it in the dramas and I'll finally get to see it for real!

DEPARTURES: Home Bound!
Our plane
We were so tired that we all knocked out upon boarding the plane that we hardly noticed that the plane had delayed jetting off by 20 minutes. And it was such a smooth flight that most of us slept throughout and the landing was so well down that it was hardly noticeable. And best thing was, we landed on time even though the plane didn't depart on time. I would definitely fly with Scoot again, the seats were so much more comfortable!

And that pretty much marks the end of our 5D5N holidays!!!

Here is our itinerary in a snapshot:


Kind advice: Do not change HKD $1000 notes because most places do not accept these notes anymore. Our exchange rates were 6.14 instead of the state 6.15 because we did away with the HKD $1000 notes but we found it worth because we didn't have trouble paying with the smaller notes we had. 

Please feel free to comment if you have any questions on itinerary for Hong Kong.

Special thanks to Ms. W, Ms. Y and her boyfriend Ms. D for making this virgin trip to Hong Kong so filled with fun and memorable! This was the first time I traveled with a group of 4 rather than in twos. Of course, with a bigger group, it was expected to be more waiting time, waiting time for the toilet, waiting time for each other while shopping, and differences in some things we may want to do. But through this trip, we have learnt that it is okay to separate if we have different agendas, and we will meet back at a set time after we dismiss to do what we had wanted to do. And the best thing about traveling in 4, especially in Hong Kong, was that it made our cab ride more worthwhile and it also enabled us to try a lot more food because we could order lots and share. Through such a trip like this, we also learnt more about each other and we have listed each other as ideal travel companions! Looking forward to our next trip (hopefully next year...)! And thank God for seeing us through our differences and for always placing us at the right place at the right time so that we can enjoy the trip to the max!~

First HOLIDAY of 2018 ~ HONG KONG DAY 4 - Day Trip to Shunde 顺德

Image
And we're at Day 4 of our trip. And finally we're travelling out of HK!!!  If you were to ask if for my favourite highlight for the trip, it would have to be Shunde 顺德. We didn't get much done in a day but the whole feel of the city is one that I like. Their pace is not as rushed as Hong Kong and it seems that the people appreciate life better. How to get tickets to Shunde 顺德?  We bought our tickets from China Travel Services, but I believe you may be able to get the tickets online too. We had to pay an admin fee of 12 HKD when we purchase our tickets through China Travel Services. One way ticket to Shunde will cost HKD 240 each (~SGD41). The ferry timings are 8.30am , 9.30am , 11.00am , 3.00pm and 6.00pm . We departed our hotel at about 7.15am, took the cab to China HK City, which took us just 15 mins ride from our hotel. And since we had time, we headed over to MacDonald's for breakfast before we boarded the ferry. China Ferry Terminal Entrance

Dream Come True 2013 - Day 1 (of 7) in Korea - Jeju-do (10 Dec 2013, Tuesday)

Image
After procrastinating for a good one month after returning from this all-time favourite trip of my life (well at least up until 2013), I have FINALLY settled down to blog about it... When I was researching for my trip, I was very thankful for the travel bloggers who blog about their trips so we can have handy tips and advise for people planning their trips abroad, especially to places they would be visiting for the first time. And that was what also inspired me to start this blog. Well, where does the story begin? This was sparked off by my uncle's girlfriend (p.s. my uncle is not old, just for the record, something which I think his girlfriend is very insistent because apparently in the natural world, many people would assume uncles are like 30 plus 40, so he is just 7 years older than me, not yet in his 30s). About two months ago (three weeks before the trip), she whatsapp me one morning and asked if we would like to go to Seoul for a year end holiday. Well it wasn't like

Winter in Korea 2019: Day 7: Seoul (Last Day of 2019)

Image
We were thankful that we could get an extension to check out at 3pm so we headed out to a few spots before we leave Seoul today. Since Sinseol-dong is part of the Line 2, we were aiming to take direct line to Samseong. The line stopped at Seongsu and we didn't know we were supposed to transfer to another platform to be on the same line. We ended up on the line towards City Hall, and we alighted at Wangsimni station. When we were transiting, we noticed this bakery (and considering that we were hungry), we bought this yummy garlic bread! Such a good Garlic Bread (with cheese and egg) - at 3900 won Then we went on our way to Seolleung station to change to Samseong station. Follow the signage to lead you to COEX mall COEX Mall COEX Library Then we took the train to Passing by Han River Commonground Pretty Rainbow Cakes   Once we were done exploring Common Ground, we headed to a cafe (Daelim Changgo)
