From Disneyland to Tsim Sha Tsui

We checked out from Disneyland Hotel on Friday. After breakfast, I went to the hotel's nursery and play 'masak-masak'. After that, we went to buy some souvenirs in the hotel (will show you what i've bought later!)




A bus came and took us to another hotel. We stayed at Novotel Kowloon in Tsim Sha Tsui. It was smaller than the Disneyland Hotel but nice!







We had dim sum for lunch at a nearby restaurant and I like to eat "char-siew pow". He..he.. minus the char-siew, of course!





After an afternoon nap, we went to Avenue of Star. It is a place facing the sea where those Hong Kong stars put their hand prints on the floor. Too bad I didn't know any of those people! But it was very windy there! Exactly at 8pm, the "Symphony of Lights" show began. It was a multimedia display of colored lights, beams and laser synchronised with the accompanying music. It lighted up the whole Hong Kong city!










After that we went to Mongkok which is famous for its shopping paradise. It was so crowded! We also went for a walk at Ladies' Street where they sell all kinds of stuff especially cheap imitations and underwears!!
I ate "gai-dan chai" which is basically kuih baulu that was made into ball-shaped. We drank ice-blended watermelon and papaya juice.


A lot of people there also eat "chau-tau-foo" which is "rotten tofu". The smell was horrible and i don't know why people like to eat it so much.
