hongkong 2006 Day oneSo the much awaited day finally arrives.After weeks of cracking heads & asking help from people (thanks Haneymum) we were on our way to asia's SHOPPING paradise!This trip was especially special because it's my mum's maiden flight!Yep my mum has never travelled in an airplane.A train yes.Car yes..airplane a no no.She was excited weeks prior to our departure.Hari2 cakap pasal hongkong ok.Don't blame her.I would too if it was my first flight.
Our shopping spree started even way before we sempat sampai hongkong.The airport's departure lounge sale was too good to resist.And what else can we splurge on here that is super cheap other than beauty products and perfume?Definately a bargain I would say.
We arrived in hongkong close to 4 in the evening and after checking in our hotel at kowloon and dumping our bags in our super small room we wasted no time in checking out our surroundings.
Food was our main priority because we've heard people telling us that halal food was scarce in hongkong BUT what we found out was halal food was everywhere IF you look in the right places,do your research beforehand (like the internet) and armed with a GOOD map.We even managed to locate the mosque where the good people there told us where all the halal eateries were located and also telling us the prayer times there.
So the first day ends with us having a tummy full of briyani,tandoori meat,naan,mint tea tarik,goodies from HARD ROCK CAFE and several tired legs.
