sir boybi, anu na ba ang nabili mo dyan?buti nakakapagtsikot ka pa?may laptop ka dala?or pwede na ba magtsikot kahit sa P900 na cel?naikot mo na ba buong hongkong?pasalubong mo sakin kwento masaya na ako...hehehe...

kinyo thanks for the pics...

[boybi]

BlueGirl, may dala akong laptop. akala ko kasi magpapalit ako ng cellphone (XDA2) dito kaya dinala ko para mai-sync ko mga contacts and appointments ko sa new phone. pero nabigo ako , hehe, pero at least nagagamit ko naman pang tsikot. buti nalang libre ang internet dito (up to May 15 ang free internet), 1.25Mbps pa ang connection!
kung sa P900 ka magtsitsikot, baka mamulubi ka sa gastos (GPRS). although hindi ko alam kung how much per kb ang charge, kapag dyan sa atin (Globe), sa pagload palang ng isang page ng tsikot, abutin ka na ng around P300.00.
malabong malibot ko ang hongkong ngayong stay ko dito. grabe, sa isang shop palang, umaabot na kami ng ilan oras! pero konti lang nabibili ganyan ba talaga kayong mga girls?

Kelangan bang i-declare (at magbayad ng tax) ang malalaking electronics like 19" LCD monitor? Magpapabili sana ako sa brother ko who will be in HK next week.

[boybi]

maluwag naman ang customs ngayon sa airport. itago mo nalang sa loob ng maleta. hindi naman nila kakalkalin yan.

BlueGirl, tell ur parents to consider visiting Macao too, it's only an hour jetfoil ride away then dont forget to get to China as well... at least 3 birds in one stone di ba, sayang ung chance...magkakalapit lang kasi.

...just arrived from HK, stayed at marco polo hotel. grabe, ang mahal na pala sa HK (except for electronics) halos wala ako na-shopping. sa bangkok na lang ako kung shopping lang din ng damit.

...ganda talaga ng airport nila.

[boybi]

...marco polo hongkong (the other one is marco polo gateway) beside ocean centre. i think it's about $200/night. i'll go check it out with my dad (siya nagbayad eh).

...ok location niya kasi sa likod na mismo yung star ferry terminal.

Ei guys/ gals,

Tourist attractions? Preferably destinations that my 8yr old daughter & 6yr old son would enjoy.

Thanks!

A 'must do' and at a reasonable price. Take the Star Ferry from Kowloon side onto Hong Kong Island (stops at Central). 5 minute walk from there to the bus station.
Get on the number 6 bus (double decker - the kids will love it) and go to Stanley. The bus first goes along HK island picking up passengers, but then starts to climb up into the hills. firstly (for you) the views are breath-taking, but as the bus climbs higher and higher on a narrow twisting road, the best way I can describe the journey is a 40 minute roller-coaster ride. The extremely experianced drivers manoever these huge buses along the road with towering cliffs on one side and sheer 1000ft drops on the other, steering around seemingly impossible bends while you wonder how he's managing to keep the bus on the road. Then another bus comes the other way and you think.....NO WAY....WE'RE NOT GOING TO FIT.....but don't worry, you always do!
When you get to Stanley there's the fabulous market, the harbourside with bars and restaurants and a few minutes walk and your on the beautiful beach.

The cost, HK$8 per adult, HK$4 for children over 5yrs. Worth every single peso..trust me. I did it (again) only this last weekend for the 6th or 7th time.

HK Disneyworld......I prefer to go to Ocean Park (on Hong Kong island). Cheaper, less crowded, just as much to see but without the vastly overpriced food and beverage bill.

Travel Tip......go on-line and check out the local trade fairs in and around HK and SE China - The reason.....well HK hotel rates will increase 2 or 3 fold during commercial trade shows. Pick travel times in between these for the best deals.

Greetings tsikoters, ask ko sana sa inyo kung safe ba mag iwan ng sasakyan sa Clark Airport. Punta kasi kami HK nextweek via Clark, 9 days lang po kami dun. Para din sana may magamit din kami na sasakyan pagbalik naming dito from HK.
