A Trip to China – Part 5

September 9, 2008 - 4:15 am 2 Comments

The fifth day, 27th August, 2008, Wednesday.

We wake up at 7am something and went to have our breakfast, together with one of my cousin who was working in Hong Kong for few days. At 9am something, we went back to our hotel and wait for the other to start our trip today.
The first place that we visited was Ngong Ping Village (昂坪市集). The main purpose to Ngong Ping Village is to see the Tian Tan Buddha Statue (天坛大佛). We went there by underground. About 10am something, we arrived to Ngong Ping cable car’s station. We bought the tickets, which cost HK$ 88 per person.

After that, we ride the cable car to Ngong Ping Village… =D
Well, it takes about 15 minutes to the village from the cable car station. It’s far, isn’t it?
Here are some photos that I took in the cable car.

After the cable car, we had arrived to the Ngong Ping Village. Before we go to the Tian Tan Buddha Statue, my sister and cousin bought drinks from Starbucks. After that, we continue to Tian Tan Buddha by walk.

This is where we came out from the cable car

On the way to Tian Tan Buddha Statue, I took this photo while waiting my brother to toilet… =D

We didn’t go up there since the weather was extremely hot. Also, we thought that entrance fee is needed to go up there. So we decided not to go up and go back to the cable car station. But after came back to the cable car station, someone told us that it’s free to Tian Tan Buddha Statue up there… =.=ll

On the way to the cable car station, we stopped at a few shops. We looked around there and bought some candies. At 1.30pm, we meet our tour guard and went back to the first cable car station.

Before we go to our next destination, we went to have our lunch ourselves nearby. My cousin brought us to Delifrance… =D

After lunch, we went to the shopping mall nearby. We walk around there, since we still have some time before we meet our tour guard at underground station.

After that, we continue our trip to Disney Land. =D
Here is the train to Hong Kong Disney Land… XD

The underground train to Hong Kong Disneyland.

After the train, we had arrived to Hong Kong Disneyland.

Well, at the entrance there, your bags will be checked by the security guards. Check what? They only allowed 1 person to bring 1 bottle of water. =.=ll

Ok, after go through the entrance. It’s about 3pm already. We rush ourselves to the street in Disneyland to watch the parade at 3pm. But who knows? The parade starts at 4pm… Lol…
Therefore, we went to a train tour there, which bring us to walk around in Disneyland. =D

After that, we went to a few shops to buy some souvenirs. I saw this while my sisters and cousin were choosing their souvenirs.

After shops, we walk around, and I took this… =D

So we went to watch the parade. Here are some photos of the parade. =D

And… I don’t know what is this… =.=ll

Well, I can’t take a better photo for the parade since they will “water gun” you… Lol…
So, don’t get so near when you watch the parade in Hong Kong Disneyland next time, or else you’ll get wet… (I got myself wet there..) =.=ll

After that, we went to watch the 4D movie. Wow… The 4D movie is cool, and the sound effects inside were dam nice… =D

Next, we went to Jungle River Cruise. The driver of the boat was funny and always talk about lame joke. The driver always scare us… =.=ll

At 6pm (if i’m not wrong), we went to watch another show again called Festival of the Lion King.
Before the Festival of the Lion King, we played Space Mountain. Haha… It was fun… XD

The end of the Festival of the Lion King

Well, this show was nice, and nice sound effects as well… It’s worth to watch this. =D
Next, we watch another show again called The Golden Mickeys. Haha, what else I would say again about this show? It’s nice and cool… =D

So, after The Golden Mickeys, it’s 8pm already. So we went to “It’s a mini world”.
Here are some photos in “It’s a mini world”.

At 9pm, all the street lamps will be switched off. OMG! What happen? A blackout? Lol…
Well, it’s time to watch the Stars Fireworks… The fireworks were beautiful, and dance with the music played as well… =D
One word again, cool… XD

Ok, after the fireworks, nothing else you can do since they’re closing. So we went back to the underground station. Before we reach the underground station, I took this…

Haha… beautiful right?
So, we went back to the underground station, and back to our hotel around 11pm.
Haha… We were half dead and so tired…
We didn’t had our dinner until we came back to hotel
At the end, we had cup noodle for our “dinner”… =.=ll
After that, we took our shower, and sleep at 1am something again… >.>ll
