Hongkie Day 4-Part 2
We took quite some time to figure out our way to the bus stop to the Peak. There are 2 buses that you can take to go to The Peak, 15 or 15C. Bus 15 is from the bus terminal that brings u directly to The Peak while the bus we took, Bus 15C, is the topless buss that brings us for a short sight-seeing to the Peak tram station (lower). Which means we took the bus to the Peak tram station and transfer to the the tram to reach The Peak. Unfortunally, the tickets were bought seperately but the scenery was nice!


We are like the only few who were cam whoring =p

Tickets for the Tram

While waiting to alight the tram, CF was playing with the lil girl outside the window. The lil girl threw a flying kiss to him. so cute!!
We head to the Sky Terrace first. The view was incredibly beautiful. The wind was strong and freezing. One bad thing is that the sun was too glaring. We can't open our eyes to take photos most of the time.


Next was the Wax Muesum, Madame Tussauds. We spend like the whole day in there happily taking photos. Reminder: 1 Camera Batt is not enough!! Some of the Wax artise look so real. We had so much fun in the muesum!


See Tom being part of the Royal-Wax family?

Leon Lai look so real!

Don't u think they look alike?
The sky was dark when we finished touring Wax Muesum. Cf suggested to go Lamma Island for seafood. Those who watch "Gems of life" will know this island. Ling B used to bring Yu Sock Qiu to eat beancurd there. This was also the reason why cf insisted to go.

The ferry terminal is nearby the bus stop we took to The Peak. We took the ferry at 1920hrs. See the boarding time and the actual clock time, 2 mins before the ferry left. hahaaa

It was a dark island with nothing but a stretch of seafood outlet.

We decided on the first restaurant, Rainbow seafood restaurant, with more varitey of seafood. The guys do their job while the gals relax. Their seafood looked fresh. We ordered Fried rice, 4 pcs tiger prawns, 4 pcs mantis Prawn, 4 pcs clams and a steam fish. The food was above average but not the bill. It cost us HKD 2000 (SGD 100 each) for a stingy dinner. Our faces was like in shocked state. We were given 4 complimentry ferry tickets. We swear that we will not go back again.


It was an very bad experience for us =( And my camera failed me after that!
I checked from the reviews on Lamma island seafood, they paid abt HKD 700 for a big feast. We got chopped terribly! For precuation, we should actually ask for the prices for all the seafood before they bring them to cook. Should not be embarrass, afterall we are tourist.
On a side note, there was a man arrested for pouring acid at one of the temple street building. Few local and tourist were injuired in this incident. Our hotel were few street away from there. Luckily we were at The Peak. *phew*
