Hong Kong Ocean Park

I'm officially in love with taking pictures! I still haven't had enough time to just sit down and get to know my camera that's why I take every opportunity I can to use it. On to the pictures, let me take you to another photo tour at one of Hong Kong's most popular amusement parks--- Ocean Park! The land area covered by the whole park is so huge that if you plan to visit and you want to make the most out of it, you should allot one whole day there. Hanah and I decided to go there after lunch since we didn't want to get burned by the heat of the sun. But because we were too curious about the shopping streets outside the Central subway station, we decided to go out first and take a look around. We found a couple of interesting shops there so we ended up arriving at the Ocean Park at 4pm. Thank God, sunsets take place at around 8pm, we were able to take pictures and enjoy the view. We were not able to go to the other parts of the park though since we were already too tired and it was already getting late. So this is what happens when you try so hard to squeeze everything in to your itinerary! Oh well, at least I've got a lot of reasons to look forward to coming back. :)

My view from the cable car. I love aerial views!

 

Cable cars we've met along the way up to the thrill mountain.

Another round of thriller rides on another side.

 

The Dragon. I really wanted to try it but I wasn't ready for a heart attack. Haha.

Harbour City

When traveling, the best way to make your life easier is by wearing light comfortable clothing. But because I'm not the simple kinda girl, the least I could do in times like this is incorporate colors and textures into my outfit to bring interesting elements to the ensemble without giving myself a hard time just because of my "tiis ganda" outfit. I didn't bring enough clothes with me so I had to wear the stuffs I bought there. Haha. These shots were taken at the Harbour City right before we boarded the ferry going to Central. You can either cross from Kowloon Peninsula to Hong Kong island via train or ferry. So if you're in a hurry, you can always use the MTR to get to the other island but if you want to enjoy the view of Hong Kong's central business district from afar, their ferries are also fast and efficient. You don't even have to wait too long for the ferry to arrive. It'll only take you about 10-15 minutes to cross the other side of Hong Kong. Fare is only 2.50-4.00 HKD.

Hong Kong Disneyland

When I was a kid I remember getting really excited every time Disney would release a new movie. I used to watch their cartoons in theaters and would even watch it on VHS tape again and again. I would cry towards the end, thinking about the moral lesson of the story. These Disney cartoons have inspired me and taught me how to dream at a young age. I grew up a big Disney fan in the 90's so when my friend and I planned our trip to Hong Kong, Disneyland was 1st on our list. Hope you enjoy looking at the photos I took. :)

Hello everyone! It's already our 3rd day here in Hong Kong and I think we've pretty much explored this place very well so far. Today We'll be using up all our energies left to explore the rest of the city. Before we head out, here's an outfit post for all of you. Watch out for my next posts because I'll be blogging about our experiences here. Time to make this blog a travel blog again. Haha. Happy Sunday! :)
