Hong Kong 2012 Part 1 - Kowloon (Tsim Sha Tsui, Avenue of Stars/Symphony of Lights)

I know, I know, "2012?! But it's already 2014!" Well, this was my first trip out of the country, and I don't blog during these times, but it's never too late right? :)


  Yes, so thrilled to be riding a plane! Munching on some Cheetos, I'm all set!


  Level: Clouds
I always see people share a photo of the outside world from the airplane. Yes it just looks fantastic, doesn't it? Endless sight of clouds right in front of you, no need to look up.


 What's in my bag? Food and stuff? I really can't tell much more. LOL


Touchdown Hong Kong!


Not yet the MTR, but the train inside the airport.


 My grandparents using the walkalator, and I decided to join them. Too lazy to walk. XD


  Leaving the airport.


 Looking for bus informations on how to get to our hotel from the airport.



 Kowloon!


 Group selfie in the elevator. Jettro's head tho..(between the two girls (my mom and I)).. fail.

After checking in, we went outside and one of the nearest from us is Kowloon Park.


  Kowloon Park = peace and serenity
Posing with my grandma. Check out the lovely background. ♥





 Swimming?! In this kind of weather?! How about a no. XD Seriously, it's too cold to go swimming! I don't even feel like taking a bath during our stay, but I had too because I was just a teenager with her parents!

Hunger strikes.. and we ate at:


McDonalds! We did this for 4 days straight during our stay.. because the kids don't eat Chinese Food (guess if I'm included with the kids), and we are not prepared for the pricey restaurants around. A meal per person at McDonalds costs 20HKD. Totally a bargain as this includes a Big Mac, large drink, and large fries! Yes, we have the perfect excuse to eat McDo for 4 days straight. I was also too astounded to have Fanta because locally it is called Royal. I ♥ Fanta but Royal, not so much. I'm weird like that.

Next stop was Avenue of Stars! Symphony of Lights. ♥



 This is the wonderful view of Hong Kong Island from Kowloon Island.

 Jettro busy with his waffles.


 Jackie Chan!


 Movie Stars~


The famous 1881 tree. ♥


*Window* Shopping!


 Chanel, shining so bright and wonderful.~


That's all Day 1 and tell you what, as far as I remember, this was incomplete. I remember going to Mong Kok and a lot more since we just went walking and walking. I promise, I'll do better with the documentation next time. ;)
