| | This is totally a Hong Kong Island tour... (I am becoming a tourist)
1st Stop: Hong Kong Park
The feeling of being surround by all those skyscrapers as well as being in a park is so weird... feel like the park is totally isolated from the city... with a lot of healthy people walking around.. (oh yes.. I am one of the healthy people.. XDDD).. There were so many newly weds taking photos inside the park... unfortunately.. none of the brides are actually beautiful... i am kind of disappointed.. LOL...
Went into the Museum of Teaware, it is my first time to be there.... after looking at all those steps to make a good tea....I just feel like troublesome.. yeah I am lazy.. to wash the tea leaves, then to keep the water at an optimal temperature... and of course lazy to keep the teapot at an optimal temperature.. why need to bother so much to drink a cup of tea.. I may try to do so when i have so so so so much spare time left! About that teapot competition... i absolutely don't understand the champion's teapots... um... absolutely don't like it... i still love the 2nd runner up... Simple yet elegant!!!
The green house is not disappointing.. surprised to see even 白網葉 inside..(with a smile)... delighted to see the "pigeon king" in the Edward Youde Aviary (Crowned Pigeon should be a more common name for that spectacular bird)...
Went up to a tower too... hoping that i can see more view... XDD I even climbed up 105 steps... and felt a little bit dizzy.... but i can see nothing but two depressed young people talking... orz... feel like it is a crime to disturb them.. -___-.. wakkakaka
2nd Stop: Hong Kong Zoological and Botanical Gardens
Totally feel like I am still living in a colony.. can see even King George VI's statue.... with all the steps... and facing the fountain.. the feel is so European.. very grand....
There are indeed a lot of different kind of flowers and animal inside this park... LOL.. went to another greenhouse and saw the flowers (that one particular flower).. after compare back with the photos... I am totally impressed by the photography skill of that blog owner.... he captured the essence of the flower..... and showed the most beautiful part... seem like the flower improved in those two photos... better than saw them with my own eyes!!
Passed by a sleeping jaguar... different kinds of monkeys swinging ...two particular noisy apes... and the best is.... lemur from Madagascar... Also.. amazed by some big birds.. red crowned crane and more than a dozen noisy flamingos.... disappointed by the "large" size of reptile house... with just one alligator and one python!!
I also enjoyed the ham and egg sandwiches freshly-made by a "legendary cook" as my lunch.. XDDDDDDDD
saw a rainbow nearby the fountain... delighted to all the kids playing peacefully... argh.. they have so so so much energy to just running around...
 
3rd Stop: Stanley
After an exciting bus ride, arrived Stanley.... Stanley does not belong to Hong Kong... I feel like being a tourist in another country!!! This feeling is so great!! and Stanley is totally for foreigners too... more than 70% of people there are foreigners!!
The view is magnificent!! It is just hard to forget when u can see the line of the sea blend together with the sky... so peaceful... walk along the sea coast is so happy!!
The library and community centre of Stanley is also very beautiful... totally different from those in other places... the view from that rooftop is magnificent too..
Stanley market is totally for tourists.. there are so many souvenirs...and clothes that no one will want to wear.. XDDD ..visited the special wellcome which is converted from the ex-stanley police station... totally amazed and i even took a photo for it...because it is an histroical building...
Another historical building that i come across is of course Murray House..... too bad we were a bit late.. and the maritime museum is already closed.. XDD.. I can't believe I even saw graduates taking photos in Stanley.... How come she wanted to go all the way to Stanley just to take graduate photos!! Amazing... apart from these.. a lot of couples are taking photos too... er... so pointless to take photos for each other.. somehow.. i feel like the person ruin a beautiful pic.. XDD
4th Stop: Quarry Bay Park
Had a nice curry dinner at Sai Wan Ho... (totally out of my expectation).. and enjoyed dessert right next to the curry restaurant!! what a nice combination...
There are so many healthy people in the park... while we need to take lifts for crossing the bridge.. XDDDD.. need to justify a little bit... we are healthy people too!!! we walked on the small stone path (too lazy to find out the name XD) and feel so comfortable afterwards...
What a memorable day I had today..!! Time should just stop......So happy to just be all the places with.......
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Totally addicted! (with a stupid smile)
