What Remained of Day 2

-
Our day was far from over even after all the activities we had (queueing for rides plus all the walking around) at Disneyland. After taking a cab from Hollywood Hotel to a smaller hotel in Kowloon Island where we stayed for 2 nights, we still had enough time and energy to spare and to see the sights at Kowloon/Hong Kong until nightfall.

Around Kowloon


My eldest son and I managed to just slip into a fresh set of clothes before taking the Star Ferry ride to Hong Kong Island. We wanted to see the Victoria Harbour at daytime.

Pero sa totoo lang, after a long day at work or from school, it's always nice to come home to a clean house.  Ang sarap magpahinga sa maayos na kabahayan pagkatapos ng mahabang araw  di ba?
