Hello Hong Kong!

The moment we got off the plane I can already feel how cold it was. Although some people might say that it was not that cold, for me it was. I'm the kind of person who would easily get cold especially when I finish my ice filled drink. It's as if the temparature of my drink was already transferred to my body.

Our trip in Hong Kong was only for a day. It was March and I was with my Mom and sister and when we got to Hong Kong, our cousin's wife picked us at the airport and toured us in the city. We went to the Hong Kong Park, rode the tallest escalator and did some shopping. During this time the "winter clothes" are on sale since by the end of March it will be hot and humid in Hong Kong and winter clothes won't be in use and would be kept at the back of everyone's closet again. But not all clothes on sale are only winter clothes.

During this trip, it was more of the shopping and sightseeing and familiarizing ourselves, myself to be more exact of the place. I was planning that time that during our future trip here I would go with my sisters (Koleen and Kaecy) and go to Disneyland which I believe they would really love and enjoy.

After a long day of walking, eating and shopping we rested for a while at our relative's place somewhere in Causeway Bay and headed to the airport for our flight via Philippine Airlines.


The bus ride from the city to the airport was about 45-60 minutes. I enjoyed the bus ride observing Hong Kong. I took some pictures of it's buildings, cars and even tunnels. Unlike in the Philippines wherein most people would prefer to live in houses rather than condominiums, in Hong Kong, that is not the case, most people live in condominiums.

Since it's an international flight, we always make sure that we will be at the airport 3 hours before our flight so that we will have ample time to clear the immigration, check in our luggages and time to roam around the airport. I forgot to mention earlier that I feel in love with Hong Kong's spacious airport. With their walkalators, trains and shops. They also have the Madamme Tusaad like musuem inside the airport (or I think it really is one). Their airport was big, spacious with high ceilings and with lots of shops and cafes. They even have Starbucks inside :)

Overall, Hong Kong is a country I would love to go back to escape the heat here in the Philippines. But I should always keep in mind that there are only specific months wherein Hong Kong has a cold temparature. During their summer, Hong Kong is just as hot in the Philippines and sometimes hotter.
