Spent the whole day in HK island today. Went to Wanchai market in the morning. This is one of my favourite places to go in HK. Wanchai market sells more than just groceries. It's kinda like Sg's pasar malam where they sell toys, cute character goods, shoes, bags, clothes etc etc. I bought some cookies and stuff here for my colleagues, only HKD10 (SGD2) per 500g packet! AN the cookies are GOOD: long after we came back to Sg, the cookies are still very crispy! After Wanchai, we walked around the Causeway Bay area: Sogo, Times Sq blah blah. Oh yeah, we went over to Victoria Park for their CNY fair, similar to the one we have in Chinatown during CNY. But the fair is the size of afew football fields with all the stores gathered together. So it can get pretty tiring to shop around. Luckily, not very crowded, cos the fair just started that day. If you go on CNY eve, you've to QUEUE to get in. And when you finally get in, you've to SQUEEZE, SQUEEZE, SQUEEZE with the HUUUGGGEEE crowd (hint: nose to nose with people) and then, QUEUE to GET OUT of the fair. I did that 1 yr with Mummy, 姐姐 and Aunt. All I can say is, I'm in no hurry to experience that again. I do think the air in HK island is worse than Kowloon. Cos I started coughing like hell when I was there. But once I went back to our hotel in Kowloon, I was alright again. Odd... |
