Once again, we woke up early in the morning as we had a few places to cover today. We went for breakfast in one of the restaurants near our hotel.
Our first stop for the day is to go to the 黄大仙庙. We took the MTR from Tsam Sha Tsui to Wong Tai Sin station. Once we are out of the station, we saw the temple. It was really crowded. It was said that if you pray to 黄大仙 for wishes, you will get your wish comes true.
Like the saying that goes... 'When in Rome, do as the Romans do.' Since we are in Hong Kong, we shall do what the Hong Kongers do and pray and hope that our wishes come true too... : ) I think my Mummy prays for me to be 快高长大, 身体键康. :D
Check out the pictures to see how crowded the place is... If I did not remember wrongly, it was still before lunch when we were there...
After 拜拜, we went from Wong Tai Sin station all the way to Tung Chung station in Lantau Island. 姨姨 was very persistent in wanting to go Tung Chung as she heard from her friends that they are many outlet stores there.
We were quite surprised that it was actually a shopping mall which has all the outlet stores in it. 'Wow wow'. It was the Citygate Outlets Shopping Center!!! There were so many brands in the mall, ranging from Espirit, Puma, Nike, Levis to Kate Spade, Burberry & Polo Ralph!!! I know Mummy & 姨姨 almost went 'crazy' in the mall. 外婆 and Daddy were saying we should have come here once we touched down... The adults went back with so many bags in their hands!!!
After like 4 - 5 hours in Citygates, we decided to proceed back to the hotel to put down our loots first before going for dinner then Temple Street for more shopping and buying souvenirs for our love ones back home. As it was dinner time when we made our way back to the hotel, the MTR was filled with people!! It was like dinner time at Orchard MRT station on a weekend x 10!!!
Once we were back in the rooms, I had a very strong feeling that they wish they can just stay in the room and nua... but they were saying that it was the last night in Hong Kong and staying in the hotel is a waste of the trip. Whatsmore, they are still short of some souvenirs for the relatives.
After freshening up, we headed towards Jordan station which will bring us to Temple Street. Over there, I see all the neon light signboards like the ones I had seen in the Hong Kong drama series. They were like 'Wow wow'!!!
The adults got very busy shopping in the Flea Market. They were doing some last minute shopping before we fly off tomorrow. They were at the same time complaining that their legs are going to break really really really soon. Hahaha....
By around 10 plus, they had bought 90% of stuff that they need to bring back. For the first time since we reached Hong Kong, we took 2 cabs back to the hotel as all of us were really really tired. Heehee...
Once we reached the rooms, we did all the packing of all the stuff that we bought as we are leaving the next day.
