Wee! Our honeymoon - 3 days and 2 nights in Hong Kong - was a blast! And alas! It's come to a sudden end. We wish we had more time on our hands...but Mrs. H had loads of fun! (shopping, hehe). We went to...
...most of the major tourist spots and boy was it busy! For us it was coz we're not accustomed to that many people.
When we landed in HK International Airport at Lantau Island, what we did first was changeover our Philippines Pesos into Hong Kong Dollars. We had roughly PHP 8000 leftover which was equivalent to roughtly HKD 1800. We always thought of things in terms of Australian Dollars and the exchange rate varied from 1 AUD = 6.3-6.7 HKD.
Then I rang SkyCity Marriott (SkyCity precedes the hotel name because of location, not affiliation; I checked beforehand coz I thought I could get a discount off our stay and whatnot). They told us to speak to the hotel desk at the airport to get a free ride to the hotel. After waiting a few minutes, we were ushered onto a people-mover with our luggages safely down the back.
...more here later.
To summarise, we managed to go to the top tourist attractions in HK:
- Disneyland
- Ocean Park
- Victoria Peak
- Big Buddha
- and Women's Avenue!
