Hong Kong 23-28Nov2011 – Day 04 Mongkok & Stanley

26Nov2011(Sat) – Mongkok & Stanley

We went early morning to Mongkok to get our breakfast. Our breakfast was Polo Bun. Then we went to the market area and not many stalls were open. Even the Yee Shun Milk Dairy was still closed.



Thanks to Chin Nee for the Ergo Carrier which I used for Day04 and Day05. It was great and AL slept well in the carrier with no fuss. We were using stroller in Disney and Ocean Park.


Again, we changed our plan. We supposed to cover town and Avenue of Stars for Day 04. As for Day05, we wanted to cover the South Island (Hong Kong Island) for Stanley and The Peak. The new plan, we decided to take the bus from Mongkok to Stanley instead. After Stanley we would go the Avenue of Stars for dinner. On Day05, we would go to The Peak and walk around Mongkok towards evening.

HH (Sharon’s hubby) managed to Whatsapp Jazz about our changed of plan but our dinner would be still on. There was a free wifi spot in the MTR. We were Whatsapping and checking our email using the wifi spots. (Yes, I had free wifi in my hotel room too…)

It was long long journey to Stanley along the coastal road. The scene was breathtaking with all the nice and beautiful bungalows and villas. I managed to take some short nap. At Stanley, we walked around including the Stanley Market. We got JL and AL each a stamp with their Chinese name engraved on it. Initially we only got for JL and AL requested whether we would be getting one for her. So, we ended up getting for her too. Besides that we got ourselves the cheap white HKG T-shirts for 4 of us. JL wanted the Chinese cap with the pony tail which we did get for him. We also bought fridge magnets for family members.



After that we took another long journey on the bus back to town. We went to Avenue of Stars to take some photos and meet up with Jazzmint (with Faythe and Vyktore). We packed dinner from the Sogo food court and had our mini picnic at Avenue of Stars to secure a strategic place to see the Symphony of Lights. We managed to get a nice corner spot where the kids (6 of them) could entertain and play around after dinner while waiting for the show to start.


We had our dessert in Yee Shun Milk Dairy after the show. The kids enjoyed the Steamed Milk while I loved the Steamed Egg. Yummy dessert was done. Thanks Jazzmint for the wonderful dessert.



We took MTR back to MTR Tung Chung. The 6 kids almost turned the whole MTR upside down with all the noises…

Can I know AL's age and weight?

She seems to be sleeping nicely in the Ergo carrier - wondering if I should get that for my 2 year old...
