Hong Kong Hong Kong Day 2 - Ocean Park & The Peak

2nd day in HK and more adventures to come!

And they are on their own way to the 'must visit' of HK - Ocean Park! Remember all the HK dramas, where the kids will get very excited when the adults tell them they're going to 海洋公园? That's the place my Goddess, the Horny Devil and their friends were heading to.

Fooling around on the bus to Ocean Park

And finally they have reached!

HK is really big on Halloween, the malls are decorated with Halloween props, even Ocean Park and Disneyland have a Halloween special night segment. Ocean Park has their Halloween Bash Night where there will be people dressed up as ghosts walking around to scare you. There will be ghost house for you to explore and scary rides.

Some rides that they took:

The roundabout swing reminded my Goddess of the one at King's Dominion

And how can the Ocean Park be without sea and underwater creatures?

And they took a water rafting water ride called Raging River that is similar to the Disneyland's Chipmunk ride.

Being seated in the front, my Goddess had the most water splashed onto her. Reminded her of the water ride in Bangkok's Dreamworld too.

Drinking some ice shavings to beat the unbearable heat

Too bad they didn't have much time to stay in Ocean Park, otherwise they can stay for the bash. It seems like a really popular event with the HK teens as there were literally hundreds of them queuing at the gate waiting to get in. Seems really fun too!

Feeling shagged out at the end of the day

Their 2 friends ended up sleeping too!

Next up, on their way to The Peak. Along the way, they passed by a building that they saw participating in the Victoria Harbour lights show.

And they saw some filming across the road too! Must be for some HK drama. Too bad it's across a big road, otherwise they'd have gone over to see if they can spot some stars.
To the peak! It was more crowded than the Victoria Harbour. Can't believe there are so many tourists in HK. They wanted to go up to watch the sunset. But before they even got on to the tram to get to the peak, the sky was already dark.

A beautiful shopping mall at The Peak

In the evening, they wanted to an eatery that sells the famous Po Luo Bun
泊罗包 but unfortunately it was all sold out for the day. They have to settle for their other menu. And their portion was really huge! My Goddess could only finish a quarter of what was on the plate.

After dinner, they headed to Mong Kok for some shopping. The Horny Devil bought himself 2 pairs of socks, and my Goddess Ferragamo Perfume for her mon at Bonjour and 2 pair of boots for herself at Argyle Centre, which they call it 'Ugly Centre'. Ugly Centre has a lot of nice things too - clothes, shoes, bags, etc. all for girls! They also headed to Ladies Market for some night shopping. Though Ladies Market has more variety than Stanley Market, it was not as exciting as Ugly Centre too. The Horny Devil managed to find a nice lizard ring though.

After a long night of shopping, they wanted to go to a famous 'Steam Milk' place. After much searching, they managed to find the place. Unfortunately it was too late and the shop was closed for the day! The second time that they didn't manage to eat another HK delicacy.

Luckily for them, they found a 24hour desert place called 石磨坊 which seems like a popular dessert place as the place was crowded, and they were several reviews placed on the shop on the place. They had steam milk, coconut mango which looked like 'chi cheong fun', peach sago and steamed almond papaya. Yummilicious!

The menu looks so cute!

Even the plate has the cute motiffs found on the menu
