The result of a thirty-minute chat session with my college friends: a weekend in Hong Kong!
I took a budget flight back to Manila for a couple of hours’ stopover (this was a cheaper way to get to HK rather than a direct flight from Singapore), and then flew over to HK. Of course, the first stop in HK is..Jollibee (note: there is no Jollibee in Singapore…yet!)
Then, we just walked around (a lot!) and hung out at the Harbour, at Stanley Street, at the IFC and made the most out of the short time together.
Afterwards, when everyone had gone back to Australia and Manila, I had time to walk around on my own. Since I’d already visited the major tourist places on a previous trip, I just did my thing around the city. I found myself taking pictures of the MTR stations. Each one has a colour theme.
Off the beaten track, I was able to visit a couple of temples that I haven’t gone to previously.
Finally, I was in Macau for about two hours. I viewed it from the back of a taxi on the way to the airport.
That’s the end of my travels for now. I have to take a break (me and my wallet) from going out of town for a while. But when the itchy feet strikes again, I wonder where I’ll be next.
