Hongkong Day Trip

My Day 2 in Macau, and immediately we took a side trip in Hongkong. It was almost afternoon when we left. geez.. The ferry ride was so cool but kinda expensive though It cost me 150hkd for a one way ride. But heck it was worth it. Me, my ate and kuya dict got a separate seat # and I end up sitting up with a chinese woman. She was nice but when I asked her about the toilet she cannot understand me. :(( My bladder is about to explode any minute and the ferry is finishing up boarding all the passengers. After 5minutes of describing about my nature call she immediately finger point the toilet. And as I was finishing up in the toilet the ferry was blasting its motor. I was a bit afraid that I might end up stuck in the toilet so I hurried up. When I was on my sit the very good lady gave me an embarkation card for hongkong the problem was I don't have a pen. I lost it somewhere. So i have to borrow the crews pen instead. Then when we arrive at the Hongkong ferry terminal another problem arise. The immigration officer won't let kuya dict in because she is asking some documents and kuya don't have it with him. So we immediately live the line. And the ferry police talked to us and asks some questions. The problem again was language barrier. Darn.. They can't even tell what documents they in english so we don't know what is the problem. Why they can't let Kuya in. Good this there is a filipino guy who happened to pass by and asks what's wrong and we told him the synopsis of the problem and the filipino guy said that all you need is the old embarkation that was given at the airport. But kuya don't have it because he was in Macau for almost 3 months and he threw his copy away because he never thought he might need it again. Super thanks to the filipino guy and no thanks to the police and immigration officer..

We finally entered Hongkong's Kowloon ferry station.. it was so pretty. A ferry station inside a mall is a brilliant idea. It's not just a typical mall but it was high end. Its similar with Shangrila-Mall in EDSA. So.. so.. We proceed to the MTR because we are heading to Mongkok to shop at the ladies market. I just bought a few souvenir items, a bag, a few silver jewelry and a chinese dress for my niece. Because I still find everything expensive. But my ate bought a lot as in a lot. She's a certified shopaholic. Then we ate at a nearby kiosk and it was delicious. And mind you I brought my own fork and spoon because I don't know how to use the chopstick. LOL! Then, when we decided to go home. We almost miss the ferry back it was like 2minutes before the ferry will sail and we are running and rushing to the first ferry terminal because they will leave us any minute and it was the last ferry to macau i think... It was like joining the extra challenge or the amazing race. whew!

My tips for the day is:
1. Bring ballpen
2. Always keep your travel documents with you especially embarkation card
3. Carry loose change
4.Wear comfortable clothing
5. Ready yourself to the walkaton
