finally! today we are departing taipei for our favorite city!
hubbi for the food, me for the shopping. :D
our flight was at 9.30am so we checked out of our cityinn hotel at 7am... *yawn*
it took us around 45mins ride to the taoyuan airport.
and it was all good timing as well for Taipei has been raining for the past 1 day and drizzling as we departed too.
in an hour plus time, we touched down at HK international airport! *wee*
yeah! good bye gloomy Taipei, hello HK!
the weather was also warmer in HK too.. ard 20+dc as compared to Taipei 15-17dc.
good for us!
we took a cab to our hotel - cosmopolitan hotel - in HK island.
as it's too early to check-in, we left our luggage with the concierge and took the hotel shuttle bus to causeway bay.
the drop-off point in causeway bay was right in front of a congee place so we settled our lunch there!
yummy food at super reasonable pricing!
its really hard to find food that is not tasty in HK.
taking photos with the boys while waiting for papa to order the food
the afternoon was spent in the new mall @ causeway bay - Hysen place.
I cant recall which level it is but there is 1 level which is dedicated to shoes only! *sweet*
we moved on to sogo next to it and before we knew it, it was almost 3+pm.
so we took the shuttle bus (just 10mins ride) back to the hotel and checked in.
after a good bath and lazing in the hotel room (what's new?) we were good to venture out again!
again, shuttle bus to causeway bay (in fact, the 2 days were only spent in HK island! and it was more than enough! heh.).
this time, lane Crawford!
the xmas décor outside lane Crawford is really pretty!
many people were also snapping away like us. :)
we were back in hotel by 9+pm again. ha.
think the long trip was taking a toll on the boys.
they got tired easier and earlier by this part of the trip... :P
our hotel room!
cosmopolitan is one of the few hotels which offer 2 double bed in a room hence our decision to book this hotel.
finally a hotel with decent room space!
their breakfast was pretty good too!
and that wrapped up our first day in HK which was really just about eating and shopping!
