Shenzhen 2-day trip with my girls - Day 1
22/12/2012
As my friend Becky is working in Shangri-La, we got discount booking the hotel in Futian. It is the first time for me living in a 5 stars hotel in Shenzhen instead of at massage centre!
Headed to Dongmen and did some shopping first. Then took the train to 購物公園 coz we were having dinner at 巴蜀風月.
Address: 福田中心區福華三路星河國際大厦2樓西側 (near COCO Park)
It mainly provides Sichuan cuisine which is really fantastic. We ordered 7 dishes and It only cost us RMB350!

My Birthday Trip to Langkawi Day 6
19/7/2012
It was the last day of the trip. Didn't have much time coz we had to catch the flight in the afternoon. So we just hanged around the hotel and ate some food. All the food stores were within walking distance from Tune Hotel. If you are too lazy, you may also take the free shuttle in town (CAT).

Then we went to the reception and asked the staff to help us made an appointment. The staff in Abloom was rally helpful. We asked whether they could give us a ride using tuk tuk as well. (but actually it only took 3 minutes from the hotel to the BTS station!)

Woke up early and had breakfast at hotel. It was quite simple with bacon, sausages, cereals... You can order a variety of eggs as well (scrambled, fried, boiled...) We didn't have much time to stay in the apartment but when we passed by the swimming pool, there were lots of foreigners swimming there. Looked like they had fun swimming there though it is small.

(HKD485 for studio suite + 725 bahts for extra person with breakfast included)
Itinerary of today:

Check- in hotel
Siam Exchange (exchange money)
Lunch @Cafe Fish - Siam Paragon
Tea @Som Tam Nua Papaya Salad, Mango Tango
The Erawan Shrine, Central World
Dinner @水門雞飯, local food store
Big C supermarket
Had a full breakfast in the hotel. Then took a cab to the airport. First time took off in Macau and I got a bit excited. Arrived there in 2 hours. Unlike the one in Hong Kong, Macau Airport is really way too small. There are only a few shops near the boarding area. With not much to see, we started regretting getting there too early!

Wanna try a cafe in Sai king for a long time. Was attracted by this little cafe because the decorations made it alive and full of joy. Took a train to Hang Hau MTR Station first then minibus number 11A and got off outside Sai Kung Sportsground. Walked around the pier and there were many people going on a boat trip. There were many stalls with people selling boat tickets to Hong Kong Geopark. Wanna go there but we didn't have enough time.

23/1/2012
Joined a tour by Miramar Travel to Guangzhou with my family during Chinese New Year. The price went up to almost HKD3,500/ person in this period. Really crazy!
So we got there early in the morning by coach from Prince Edward. After several hours of travelling, we arrived at the first tourist attraction 松山湖. It is just like an Eco Park with nothing else to do...
