Agnes and me by the harbour
Kat HK,makcik2 tua suka pakai topi.Here's one at Wan Chai's mosque(kat Level 2 ada canteen halal)
Look at the cloud! Me at Stanley
HK skyline.Z melaram depan Vic Harbour

Jumbo, floating restaurant at Tai Pak orAberdeen Fishing Village
The harbour, from our vegetarian restaurant
boatview of Aberdeen Fishing VillageOK folks, I'm gonna share you my impressions of Hong Kong as I know it through my day activities today.Quite full and very exciting actually.
Lepas buat mee kari in the hotel room for breakfast(mee maggie direndam dgn air panas dan
dicampurkan rendang kari ayam Brahim), kita bersiap2 nak pi Aberdeen Fishing Village.If we took the tour, it would cost us HKD490 per head.6 jam pulak.We would not have time to shop.So kita naik MTR dan bas ke Aberdeen (kat Hong Kong Island across the harbour.Kita duduk kat Kowloon seberang HK Island.Train that went across sebenarnya lalu tunnel bawah laut, constructed in the 70s).We found out org2 HK very helpful kalau kita sesat.Kalau dia tak boleh cakap English, dia akan call anak dia dan suruh dia tunjuk jalan.Baik, kan? Kalau tak tau jalan, dia akan google map kat ipod.Lain benar dgn penduduk Kowloon yang lebih kasar dan tak da masa nak layan sapa2.
We found the fishing village.Nama Cinanya ialah Tai Pak.Jgn tanya the locals where Aberdeen Fishing Village is.Memang mereka tak tau.Itu commercial name dia.
Kat situ you can sewa sampan.Org tu akan minta HK60 per head tapi you mesti berani tawar.We got HK100 for half an hour.Seronok naik sampan tengok boathouses and floating restaurant terbesar di Asia dan marina boat org kaya2.
From there we went to Wan Chai kawasan Muslim.Nak cari Muslim Centre.Punya susah nak cari and when we found it, tutup pulak.Nasib the masjid wasn't far from there so we walked again (about 5 mins).Kat situ ada canteen jual makanan Chinese Muslim yang halal.Haiyooo...very2 nice.Next time you nak senang, just stay at Charter House which is berdepan dgn masjid ni/canteen halal.We had dim sum, and segala chinese food/s you can think of.Syukur alhamdulillah.Kat sini byk maid from Indonesia having their day off (once a week and they will kumpul kat masjid).
From Wan Chai, kita naik taxi pi Stanley Market yang famous tu.Stanley Market terletak di kawasan mahal di atas bukit.Tambang taxi dekat HKD100.Ingat taxi driver tu ikut jalan jauh tapi I asked around, memang harganya begitu..sometimes up to HKD150! Tak jauh dari Stanley Plaza yang canggih tu (byk bungalows and apartments mewah up the hills).Along the beach byk pubs and ramai mat salleh minum2 kat sini.Stanley Market ni jauh lebih mahal dari Ladies Market (payung HK 30 jadi HK 130 di sini) Berhati2.Walaupun kedai2nya jauh lebih sophisticated, org2 sini suka kerat kepala dari Ladies Market.
From Stanley, we took a bus to Causeway Bay to catch a train to Admiralty to catch another train to Tsim Sha Tsui to meet my good friend Agnes (academic and writer friend).Kami 15 mins lebih awal but she was already there.She has such a generous heart.Dia bawak kita dine kat a vegetarian restaurant yang mahal , overlooking the harbour.Wahhh...very da cantik.
Lepas tu kita walked to the harbour and walked past malls yang canggih manggih.Semua designers.
Balik hotel naik MTR rasa macam nak tercabut kaki penatnya. But we experienced Hong Kong/Kowloon at a cheaper rate than what we would have paid a tour agent (and would not see as much as we did today)
Sekian wassalam. :))

Kedengarannya menarik, kalau ada gambar mesti bertambah menarik kan hehe..
Dengar kata hotel2 kat sana mahal, betul ke Dr?
Btw, i googled aberdeen fishing village tadi nak nengok gambar.. nampak ada banyak sampan2, tak pening ke naik sampan2 tu Dr? And now i dok wonder macam mana depa tinggal atas boat nun..
Lady: hotel tu tengok kat area mana juga.Ada yang mahal gila (RM600 semalam tapi bukan standard RM600 semalam..tak mcm hotel kita.Tissue nipis,no ironing board/iron, no this, no that) Kat Mong Kok area where we stayed the last two nites sebab dekat dgn shopping areas, murah sikit but kalau yang RM600 semalam pun serba tak cukup...can you imagine yang cheaper hotels ni macamana pulak? Tapi dekat dgn MTR..senang nak ke sana sini.Kita balik pun nak tidur je kan? Nanti I blog a bit more on this.
Betul3.. kalau travel banyak masa spend dalam bilik nak berehat its ok ambik hotel yang ok skit kan, tapi kalau holiday ni i jenis yang celik mata jer 'jom kita ikut mana2 tour yang ada' lepas tu malam baru balik semula ke bilik..
