Woohoo!

Booked travels!

The itinerary will look something like this (mostly self-checking out the places):

KCH-BKI (a.k.a. Kota Kinabalu)
Date: 21st Jan 2008
Time: 0900 with E.T.A. 1030

BKI-MFM (a.k.a. Macau)
Date: 21st Jan 2008
Time: 1310 with E.T.A. 1600 (if i'm not wrong, there's no time difference between M'sia and HK)

Those tour group will pick us up from Macau airport, send us all the way down to HK to check in hotel (should be Empire Kowloon Hotel) and we're free from the group for that night and whole day on 22nd until the 23rd, that is the 2nd last day in HK before we return back to Macau some time on 24th. Then, we'll spend the 25th in Macau feasting on all the while famous freshly made egg-tarts until become retarded =p 25th night, one night stay in Macau hotel (we will choose some other hotel instead of Venetian Hotel mainly because we do not wish to feed on air after we come back from the trip) which according to hubby, the photos look nice/ok/so-so and cross the fingers that we wont be cheated by the photos in the end. Should be OK lar *comforting & easing myself*

Return trip:
MFM-BKI
Date: 26th Jane 2008
Time: 1635 with E.T.A. 1925

BKI-KCH
Date: 28th Jan 2008
Time: 1910 with E.T.A. 2035

I notice we have almost one more day on 26th before we board the plane of return. which is good. I underlined BKI-KCH return trip cuz we're staying back in Kota Kinabalu for 2 days. Can eat some local food there? Do some beaching since no more Krabi? ^_* I dont think can go Mount Kinabalu climbing *wishful thoughts* since none of us are and will be prepared for that.

Yeah. That's my itinerary. Looks ok to me. It's the quality time spent that counts afterall.

And oh yah...come back home and just in time to prepare for CNY. A festival to have good excuse like "I need a holiday. During CNY would be good cuz you happy, me happy , everyone happy mar..."

Someone tell me what that is >_>""

Never ever seen it before but must be from lezard family

Macau Hong Kong 順便 Macau anyone?

I have discussed with hubby earlier on for a trip to Krabi, looking at magnificent beachy photos of Krabi, around January 2008 just before Chinese celebrate the Chinese New Year. But then i gave it a second thought and after much more thoughtful consideration (no shopping centre and very outback and laid back it is), i think i want to go Macau more (順便 pass by Hong Kong.. ha ha..is it so 順便? I dont know). There has been quite a bit development going on in Macau + Air Asia's ticket is all the time affordable + i won't be working anymore early next year + hubby is free to go = we shall go to Macau. Hopefully we can get some friends to trip together with us. I'm sure we will have so much fun. Macau & HK will still be enjoying their winter in January. Can't wait.

Very dusty and hazy. No wonder HKies need to wear mouth and nose protectors most of the time.

I can never go HK alone else i would end up there lost. The scene will be like chicken and duck talking at the same time. Language barrier that is. I do understand Cantonese but when it comes to talking....nah....not me please. I've tried it before. I had a HK friend for a sem in uni and i tried to communicate in Cantonese with him but i gave up in the end. I can only understand tad bit of Korean and Japanese. It is more fretful for me to be in HK than in Japan and Korea.

Is HK going to have any sales by the time i'm there? HA HA HA. I've always heard of how Hongkies are very rude and how impolite they can be on the streets and the way they treat their customers. *cross fingers and toes* Hopefully, i won't be encountering those situations. I guess it's just their culture and their background how they are brought up in Hong Kong to shout (maybe their streets are really long in distance?) so that they can hear each other well. Oh well, I'm going there definitely!
