Rachel Lui: Hong Kong Trip '15 Part 1

Hey there bunnies! Like i've said, I would be having a post about my trip to Hong Kong!! To me, Hong Kong is like my second home due to many reasons. Okay so, this is my somewhat travel diary! ENJOY.

Day 1.

Tuesday, 23rd June. Our flight was at 7:30am. YES CRAZY TIMING FOR A FLIGHT but we had no choice. So my day started pretty early actually. I had to be at the airport at 5:30am latest, cause y'know the "reach the airport 2hrs earlier" rule. I'm sure you guys pretty much know the airport proceedings and what not so i wouldn't go rambling on about that. We had our breakfast at the airport before boarding the plane and i must say, airport food is extremely expensive. I had a bowl of 'wanton' noodles for like $6?! Okay that being said, it was time to board the plane.

We reached Hong Kong around 11am-ish and took the hotel limousine to the hotel!! We reached around 1:30pm and was told that our room will only be available at 3pm. So we decided to go have some lunch = DIMSUM TIMEEEE!! I apologize for the lack of pictures... Maybe i forgot to actually take any hahahaha...

We actually didn't do much on the first day there. All of us were super tired because of the early flight. Only my mum went out to meet her friends while dad and i just slept till dinner time hahaha. The both of us slept till around 6:30pm and it was time for dinner!! We went to have dinner with my relatives and that's it for day 1 actually! HAHA.

Day 2.

On the second day, my mum decided to go to Shen Zhen with her friends and so we all did. Hong Kong and Shen Zhen is actually surprisingly near each other...Like a train station distance kind of near haha. But, the only thing on my mind was that i needed to SHOP. HAHA. I've heard the things in Shen Zhen are relatively cheap and ain't all that bad. We basically spent the whole day in Shen Zhen shopping and walking around. Towards the end i actually did get some clothes as well as a pair of sandals. YAY hahaha. We then settled our dinner near our hotel and after dinner, my dad brought me to the street filled with sport shoe shops. Mainly because he wanted to see New Balance shoes and me wanting to get a few pairs of shoes myself hahahaha. While my mum went back to the hotel. I managed to find a pair that caught my eye and at first, i left thinking that i'll see that pair again in other shops but i didn't... Eventually, since i couldn't stop thinking about that pair of shoes, i got it hahahaha. It was their LAST pair and just my size. Weirdly all the other shops didn't have this particular pair.. They said it was sold out. I guess I was lucky? haha.
