Change your thoughts and you change your world: HK

We woke up at 6.45am and took mtr to Tsim Sha Tsui station.

We pray hard the weather 2day would be good as we were going to Ocean Park which is outdoor.

On the way we pass by the clock tower

People were rushing to work. I was glad that I was not one of them. At least for that week.

We settled our breakfast at MacDonald. Well I would try not to eat fast food overseas but we could not find something to eat hence settled at Mac. I bought Ham & egg twisty pasta - HK24.50. The hot cholocate was so sweet. It was milo plus tons of sugar.

Central Peir. Colourful ferry.

We took the Star Ferry from Tsim Sha Tsui to Central which was about 9min. It cost HK2.20 and can be paid by Octopus card. No seasick for me for this journey.

Reaching Central Pier.

Unloading the platform

Just towards the right of the ferry terminal was the busstop to wait for Citybus bus service 629. It had an interval of 20min from 0935 - 1055.

The bus journey took abt 25mins to Ocean Park.

Our tix

Wow. So many hot air balloons but not opened to visitors. So dissappointed.

There were 2 ways to reach the summit. By cable car or Ocean Express(train)

We explored the waterfront 1st as it was nearer to the main entrance. The kids sections were all located here.

It was quite cooling inside.

squirrels

There were some stands where u can write anything on it. Of course it can be erase away.

Talking tree

There were so many cute cute cartoons along the way to Whiskers Harbour that we couldnt help ourselves to take photos with them.

Merry go round

Balloon up-up and away

I do not have the courage to take the free fall hence I only aim for the Frog Hopper. Only 1 adult per time as we were heavy and need to sit in the middle.

Do not miss taking the cable car ride as it offers a fantastic view of Ocean Park and the surrouding areas.

It was quite scary as it went up and down the mountain. The windows can even be opened. We have the whole cablecar to ourselves and enjoy the ride up.

We queue for 1hr for the Ocean Park Tower ride and the ride just last for 1 or 2 mins.

The Abyss. this was really scary! Hearing about the incident at Genting that my sis have told me, i decide not to try. I guess this was 2 times taller than the one in Genting.

Flying Swing - Din have chance to take as queue was long.

Queue abt an hr for the ferris wheel ride. Damn cold.

This was my 1st time taking rollar coaster. Also queue for quite long. Suprisingly, I didn yelled at all. The thing that frightened me was the fact that I felt that I was falling despite the safety belt in place.

Didn have much appetite after the rollar coaster. So just bought Mango pudding HK15

And korean grilled squid HK20

Atoll Reef

Worms sticking out. Yucks.

Eagle. It rotates at 360 degree and within each cabin, it spin at 360.

How can we miss the dolphin show @ Ocean Park.

It last for abt half an hr. Initially, it was quite boring as you have to wait for the singers to sing finish b4 the real show begins. Only dolphin and seals at the show.

Tai Shue Wan escalator

Space wheel

When I was doing the reseach I came across people filming the whole ride of this mine train. I tink it was not scary after watching the video. But I was wrong!! Totally freaked out. No wonder the queue was short. It was not like the rollar coaster where there was this safety thing covering your whole upper body. There was only a safety belt! i was shocked. I felt that I was almost flying out although it did not rotate 360 degree. the funny thing was that i kept cursing and swearing until the train came to a stop.

the other entrance - Tai Shue Wan entrance

Pacific Pier

We took the Ocean Express train back to the Waterfront. It was totally dark in the train with some videos played. I still prefered the cable car ride. We took bus 629 back. Only to find it stopped at Admiralty instead of Central!
