Went to Hong Kong on United Airlines. We reached at 1015 and took the airport express towards Kowloon. Then over there took this shuttle to our hotel The Imperial Hotel Hongkong and checked in. The people in Hong Kong were very friendly, we went to this department store and this sales person start talking to us and recommended us to go Shenzhen if we want good deals. So without wasting much time, we change our currency and off we went on the train to Shenzhen.
Welcome to Shenzhen...
The Luo Hu Commercial Building where lots of faked bags and shoes were sold. Over here. the people here are very aggressive and u gotta be more fierce than them. There is this lady, we went to her shop to see bags but we decided to walk around first, she actually followed us from the 2nd floor to the 4th floor. We got sooo pissed off we ask her buzz off. N there are few strategies for bargain to a gd price....
STRATEGY 1: Whatever price the sales person gave, just go all the way to 50% of it or even lower
STRATEGY 2: If you still haven get the price, just walk out of the shop and discuss with your friends near it, REMEMBER WALK OUT OF THE SHOP!
STRATEGY 3: If you are buying more things in the shop, dun be afraid to bargain even lower. If still din get the price, jus say to the salesman, if i din get that price, i'll leave. REMEMBER MUST BE FIRM. (M tried it and tink its not bad) There are alot of other shops selling the same things so no harm trying the others.
At night, we went to Lan Kwai Fong with M's friend, Jeff and his gf. We went to this pub called insomnia whereby there is also one found in Singapore. I dont really enjoy the clubbing scene there. I only enjoy the lights in Lan kwai Fong streets, very colourful...unlike here.

We went Macau at noon. Macau is very accessible via the ferry, a normal concessionary ticket is just HKD 132. This place has more interesting buildings...something definitely different.
The historic bridges in Macau. This is one of the 3 of them.
Suppose to create tis" arty" look...Caught an uncle digging ear...hahaha
Behind the ruins of St Pauls. 天啊！！！
After walking around the old historic buildings around Macau, we set off back to Hong Kong in the evening and went to the Avenue of stars...walking along the history of movies in Hong Kong.
回到香港和李小龙切磋武艺
N after the Avenue of Stars, rush off to the peak...
The view from the Victoria Peak...REFRESHING & COOLING!!!

It was our last day today. As we missed the food in Shenzhen, we woke up very early, to check out. Made our way to Hard Rock to get some Tshirts before making our way to Shenzhen again.
Me at Hard Rock...
After the brief shopping there, we took the train to Shenzhen for the cheap food and to shop awhile. And then straight away, we left for HongKong and made our way to Lantau Hill. Both M and me dun feel at ease if we didn get to see the Giant Buddha. So taking a cab, we rush off down to our destination. Can u imagine the Giant Buddha temple closes at 6pm and we reach at 530. BUT MISSION ACCOMPLISHED...feel tis sense of satisfaction...hahaha
The Giant Buddha
