Our Hongkong Trip
It has always been my dream to go to Hongkong and go to Disneyland. I guess going to Disneyland was every child's dream and I guess it stands true for those who once dreamed of becoming Cinderella or Snowhite.
The opportunity to make this wish come true came in February when I was busy looking for a cheaper ticket to Singapore for Aimee and Fred's wedding in June. We were lucky to avail of the discounted price in Cebu Pacific. Our plane ticke to HK was around PHP4,900 round trip that was good for 2 persons via Cebu.
We scheduled our trip just in time for hubby's birthday on May 8. We made reservations at Dragon Hostel in Mongkok where we'll stay for 3 nights and 4 days. Planning the trip was quite crazy and at the same time scary because it's a first for hubby and I to go on an out of the country trip on our own without knowing anyone from HK. Luckily, an officemate of mine helped me through planning our itinerary as well as using google maps to guide us through our trip.
Our only resource for this trip would be the screenshot of the maps of the places we'll go to saved on our our iPod and iPads.
Here's our planned itinerary for our 5 day trip to HK:
Day 1:
1. Ngong Ping 360
