Destination: Stopover - Hong Kong
Duration: 16 Days 15 Nights (Feb 24~Mar 11, 2015)
Day 16: A Meeting with Starsss
We were woken up at 4am Hong Kong time for breakfast and
this time I chose the omelet set rather than the porridge. It tasted just
normal but i did like the slightly tangy sauce on top of the omelet for extra kick.

| Breakfast on CX - Omelet, Yoghurt & Cranberry Muffin (i must say the Muffin was yummy!) |
The plane touched down in HKIA at around 6.30am but our
connecting flight to Penang only departed at 3pm++. Thus we’d decided to take
the Airport MRT to Hong Kong station to experience the Hong Kong breakfast and
visit Madame Tussauds Hong Kong.

At 1st we planned to go to those old style
Hong Kong restaurant but we were terribly lost when walking out of Hong
Kong Station. Thus we settled for the one which we saw from the bridge and
ended up at ‘Dai Ka Lok’ (大家乐). I think it’s kind of like their McDonalds? A lot of
people were queuing for food and I ended up with the ‘Chan Tan Chee’ (餐蛋治)Luncheon
Meat & Egg Sandwich and a cup of Milk Tea. Both were just okay I guess.
Should’ve tried the Chinese choices like porridge!

| A Map! But we are hopelessly LOST anyway... |

After asking around a few people, we finally managed to
find Exit J2 to walk to the Peak Tram Station. Since the time was still early,
we took the tram and walked around the Peak (太平山) – it was freezing COLD!!! Even more
so than the weather in San Francisco!
 |
| Follow this sign! |

| You need to follow this Direction before you can see signboard for Exit J! |

We finally got into Madame Tussauds Hong Kong – the wax
museum was categorized into a few sections such as movie stars, sport stars,
politicians, singers & comic characters. There was also this special
edition section for Journey to the West. Everything can be photographed except
Jacky Chan – they would take the picture for you so that you could buy it with
blood-sucking price. *roll eyes*
 |
| Bruce Lee - this is outside the Museum so you can take picture for free! |

After the wax museum, I was trying to use my almost
expired Hard Rock Voucher but apparently the system was down at this Hark Rock
branch! They told me go get to the ‘Lan Kwai Fong’ (兰桂坊) branch but I had no idea
where and no time to do that. UGH!!! Wasted my $15 voucher!

Since time was running short, we just went back to Hong Kong
Station for our train to HKIA again. Our flight departed on time and I chose
the fried vermicelli with Dim Sum as my meal and it was really nice! *thumb up*
Thus this finally ended our long engagement and home sweet home! =)
