Today is
Ocean Park Day! We took a straight bus to Ocean Park at 9 am. There's already a lot of people waiting for the park to open. Ocean Park is another must go attraction when you are in Hong Kong. And it's tickets are far cheaper than Disneyland. Once inside, the Park is divided into 2 parts, the Uphill and Downhill. We started at the downhill, so in order to get to the Uphill, we took a cable car in the park. The view is so pretty! Can see the South China sea from there.

We reached the top. There is where all the rides and exhibits are. First we went to the various exhibits like the Jellyfish gallery, Shark gallery and a mini underwater world. Watched the Dolphin and Seal performance also!

After all the attractions, we went to play the rides! Actually I have never taken any amusement park rides before cause my mum cannot play these kind of rides. It's my first time trying all kinds of rides! FUN!!! Played the roller coaster, flying eagle, and the scariest was the Abyss! Where it brings you up into the sky where you can a breathtaking view of the park and then..................AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Drops you down! Didn't manage to play all the rides cause spent quite alot of time waiting for this rides. Waiting for 1/2 hr for rides which last for 5 mins. Hahaha but it's for the excitement! As the time goes by, more and more people are flooding in. Had to take a shuttle bus back to the Main Entrance cause the cable car has a REALLY long queue. Left Ocean park at around 5+ pm.

We had dinner at this kind of restaurant where the locals called it "Ca Can Ting". Where they serve many kinds of food. This restaurant is quite well known, many stars like to eat here. My gf ordered
"Sing Chou Noodle" (Singapore style noodle) which this dish didn't even exist in Singapore! Lol. Anyway it's delicious. It's fried bee hoon coated with curry. Still, HK dishes are all very Big portions. It's enough for 2 persons. I ordered a very simple dish, Macaroni with eggs and luncheon meat. I just love to eat macaroni. Can't help ordering when I see one.

Macaroni!

After dinner, we took a walk in
Lan Kwai Fong, where all the bars and clubs are located there. Pretty small place. Didn't try clubbing there, cause was too tired to do so. Took the star ferry back to TST at the New Harbour. Ohh so cool! Very nice view in the night. And we got to see fireworks again at the pier!
