Our HK Tour: Arrival in HK, we'ere finally here!


We arrived in Hongkong International airport at dawn and after getting through with immigrations, headed our way to the airport exit to look for bus N21. Cityflyer bus N21 is the only bus that travels at night from the HK International airport to the city. The fare costs 33HKD per person. Here's a smart tip for first timers in HK, prepare a smaller bill in HKD, because the N21 bus does not give change if you give the driver a 500HKD bill. So when you're exchanging your PHP money to HKD, ask for smaller bills like 20 - 50 HKD.

Before choosing our seats, we told uncle, the driver to drop us off at Mongkok Bus station. This was quite a funny experience for hubby and I. As you can see, based on the map and instructions provided by Dragon Hostel, getting to Mongkok is at the 6th stop that is if you're riding the A21 bus which travels only in the morning. Little did we know that the N21 bus takes a lot of bus stops during the night trip.Hubby was asking uncle every now and then if we we're already in Mongkok around 6 times maybe. An american was kind enough to help us on the way and luckily, uncle didn't forget to drop us off at Mongkok Station.




Getting to Dragon Hostel after the bus stop was very easy to find. It's like my feet guided me to where we should be going and it was easy for me to spot the hostel. I guess checking the visual google maps every once in a while before our trip was a big help in spotting the hostel easily. We took the elevator to the left since the hostel was located at the 7th floor of the Sincere house.


The receptionist from the hostel was very kind to assist us and led us to our room but of course we paid the payment in full first. Our room was indeed good for 2 and very clean though we had to share bathrooms with the other guests. The bathrooms were quite small but clean.
We finally hit the sack because it will a big day later in the morning.
