Day 6: HK 070108

Our last day at HK! is just so fast these days pass.. actuallie today our feet is oreadi very very tired le after so much walking for the past few days.. today's itinerary was quite simple..

A Walk around Sheung Wan and Central areas..

We adopted a walking trail from HK pamphlets which I took during our 1st trip to HK.. it helped us a lot in our planning..A good thing of Ramada HK Hotel is that transport is readily available as the tram is just right in front of the hotel.. with an affordable HKD$2.. you can take the tram as long as you want.. we took it to the Western Market as shown.. This market has some kind of history behind it.. something on the British.. it looks reallie westernized to me.. took a few pics at this interesting building.. actuallie inside sell many cloth materials of differnt designs.Next, we ventured out along the streets of Sheung Wan.. you see many shops selling those dried seafood.. which I do not know how to appreciate haha.. maybe aunties and uncles.. and grannys and grandpa will appreciate more of such.. as for youngsters.. well..u just dun see them at these shops.. i tink is quite a big sales over there ba since so many are selling roughly the same stuff and wanting to get more customers to them..

Along the trail..we also saw The Magistracy..but it seemed isolated..a tourist monument..but the structure is very majestic indeed..we also got the famous egg tarts from 泰昌饼家 located near Lan Kwai Fong..didnt buy as many as we did from the 1st trip.. probably cuz we were too attracted to the Portugese egg tarts which tasted better in our opinion haha..
after which..we hurried our way to Wanchai MTR..walking then to the Golden Bauhinia Sculpture located near the Convention Centre.. this is the other flower given by China to HK..does it have any difference to the flower we took with in Macau??? And that was our last stop in HK... we had to go back to wait for our hotel-transfer -to-airport-bus..which arrived promptly to our relief..as there was some complications in the arrangement of this bus..
had this on the plane..fish with a packet of cashew nuts for additional flavouring.. that's the end of our 2nd trip to HK.. went to places which we haven been.. climbin mountain too..it was an experience after all :)
