Day 9 away from Hong Kong (23/3/2008 Airport)

This is our last day in Hong Kong, we were ended our nine days Hong Kong trip for this day, actually it was a little unpleasure happened at the morning, SL tried hard to find a place where sells Hongkies Dim Sum for our breakfast, but we really couldn't find any chance on this, still SL insisted want to find it for me because I always hoped for it. We were walking quite a long time and I felt hungry, finally I asked him to give up and find a simple place to settle our last breakfast, but he was sturbornly wanting to get it. SL is always like this, he wants to make everything perfect, likes never left regret in life, but this is impossible for everything, sometime we need to learn from failure. At last, I was angry and didn't want to walk with him anymore. At this point, he just decided to give up and simply sat in a cafe for our breakfast.

Day 8 in Hong Kong (22/3/2008 Sha Tin)

Basically, we had visited almost all the place in Hong Kong Central for the first seven days of trip, except those places at district/outskirt area and Disneyland, therefore we planned to go far for our day eight. We disscussed at the night before and we found out that we actually stil had a lot of options, but we only can choose one because of distance between those places. At last, we chose to go to Sha Tin because MS told us there is a Snoopy World and I kept in mind with this. For those who doesn't like Snoopy, you can choose Wetland Park in New Territories, it is a big relaxation place according to torism information. We woke up in the early morning because we knew it would take us sometime to reach Sha Tin because it is located at outskirt. And, we went to Hung Hom before Sha Tin, because we also saw many stars have their concert there. Well... it actually nothing special there, except a staduim standing there, we were looking at it's concert schedule and knew David Tao w...

This is the day we woke up the earliest during our Hong Kong trip, it was 6:15pm and we started prepared ourself, we stepped out from our hotel at 7am because we needed arrive to Golden Bauhinia Square, there would be a flag raising ceremony in front of the Square, this ceremony would take around 5 to 10 minutes to complete. Finally, we were abled to see this Golden Bauhinia fountain standing firm outside the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, this Golden Bauhinia was given from China after colony of UK ended at 1997, which is same meaning as Golden Lotus in Macau.

Thankfully that we could record this moment with our viewcam. After the ceremony, we walked around at Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, but it was still early, so that we could find too much special things there, except some stalls were opened nearby. After a whi...

At our first day to Tim Sha Tsui, we saw TV was promoting the Flower Show would be held coincidently with our staying period in Hong Kong, therefore we planned forward to visit this festival by this day. We departed to Victoria Park in Causeway Bay at the early morning, There were a lot of flowers exhibited in the Park, we think this is really rare in Hong Kong :P therefore, we took a bunch of pictures in the park. Honestly, this is really a special experience in Hong Kong, also it's my first time to visit a Flower Show, SL also really liked it.
