22-8-2009:自由行@山頂一日遊

一刻o既信念…令呢篇blog blog o既標題完全改寫呢…

其實我o地本身呢日係想去海洋公園o架,趕緊係八月底前玩下史前夏水禮同埋去亞洲動物天地探下小熊貓佢o地…但點知…太太太太多人了﹗好得人驚呀~去到海洋公園o既巴士站就馬上打退堂鼓了…

諗過好多alternative,離島?太熱了﹗馬灣o既noah ark?好似行回頭路咁…行博物館?難得咁好天氣~所以最終決定去山頂﹗同day都有好幾年冇一齊去過啦,上一次去可能係我year 1 o個年o既生日…因為我記得o個次影D相我係金色短頭髮的~同爹媽就近少少有去過(19-10-2007:重陽節登山樂)~

去山頂玩就要玩全套,當中梗係包括搭纜車啦~

蠟像館都係好多年冇行過,發覺多o左好多本地名人o既蠟像喎~

比較欣賞o既係栩栩如生o既古sir~

冇蠟像﹗不過呢D公主紗裙係每個女孩子扮公主o既夢想o黎家嘛,那管我已經活過四分之一個世紀…heehee~

royal family~

原來除o左企係D蠟像隔o黎直得筆直咁影相之外,仲可以行入展品之中扮鬼扮馬~

我好鍾意呢張呀﹗傻瓜被摸摸頭﹗「乖~」

哇,威水咯~

怒跳都唔夠姚明唔跳o既高…

行完蠟像館,仲未夠鐘食lunch,不如出埋去觀景台啦~天氣好好好好好呀~

維港兩岸

好在有wide angle

見到我係邊度嗎?

差唔多時間開飯lu~去邊度食好?我o地決定去香港o既第一間阿甘正傳主題餐廳「bubba gump」,專門食蝦o架~其實呢間餐廳我2006年去美國探康熊貓珊珊時都有食過(28-6-2006:我愛水族館),都係一個唔錯o既experience~

想叫waiter停低為你服務?將個牌掀做「stop forrest stop」,如果唔係呢就係「run forrest run」﹗

我o地叫o左三款食物share~有充滿牛油香o既大蝦appetizer配蒜蓉包包、田園沙律同埋大蝦意大利粉﹗D蝦好爽好新鮮,day好傻瓜咁話:「D蝦多到好似唔駛錢咁?﹗」我話:「hee,你咪俾o左錢o羅~」雖然貴少少,但食物都算一分錢一分貨o既~好在我o地o既份量叫得o岩o岩好﹗本來都想飲下D特飲o架~見隔離枱D人飲得咁過癮,又大大杯喎,但始終唔係好捨得呢…

係大門口個招牌影張相先~仲有souvenir shop添o架~

一下站決定去尖沙咀睇漫畫~

番屯門時正好試搭新o既extension西鐵﹗走在時代o既尖端﹗呵呵~

呢個就係呢排我o地好迷o既nds遊戲「the legend of zelda: phantom hourglass」lu~正呀﹗

DAY 9 @ USA

I am sorry to tell all of you that I have to write my diary in English in these few days because I can’t type Chinese in Hong’s computer. Hope you still enjoy reading my diary.

Although I should have a bit of jet lag (California is 3 hours slower than New York), I could still wake up around 8am. May be another reason was that I had to talk to Day in MSN!!! 8am here is 11pm in Hong Kong, a perfect time for chatting in MSN. Expectedly (luckily), he’s there~ I chatted with him and at the same time getting some breakfast from Hong’s fridge. CHINESE BUNS (vegetables+mushroom<–Day called it as “pretty girl bun”, haha~)!!! WAAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!!

We were going to the Monterey Aquarium this afternoon. We started our activity around 12 noon, after Hong had come back from school. Before the 2-hour journey, she brought me to a very colourful shop to buy a drink. We shared a “Power-sized Mango-a-go-go”, which is a mango+pineapple smoothie. It was chilled and ideal for such a hot hot weather (actually the weather here is very strange)!!! In this shop, they can split a Power-sized drink into two for you for free. That’s why you see the picture below has two identical cups. Very nice~

Mango-a-go-go, accompanied us throughout the 2-hour journey (finally only 1 1/2 hour~).After reaching Monterey, we entered the aquarium immediately. Last night, Hong Lo Ming suggested us to have our lunch in the cafeteria of the aquarium.

We bought 2 soups, a clam chowder (left) and a roasted chicken vegetable soup (right). The crackers were free of charge!!! They gave us 4 packages but we only ate 2. Both were nice but the clam chowder was thicker, which was better for lunch.We finished our lunch within half a hour because we had to watch the mini seahorse show at 2:30pm.

The staff (with blue cap) explained to us the features of a seahorse: a fin like a fish, a pouch like a kangaroo, a tail like a monkey and a face like a horse. As seahorse daddy bears the kids, she looked for a dad in the audience to pretend a seahorse!!! There was not a lot of information in the show but it was fun.

After finishing this, we walked around the aquarium. There is a wide variety of marine animals. The aquarium is nicely decorated, which is comparable to the aquarium I went to in Shanghai.

Of course we had to look at the sea otters!!! They are the leading roles of the aquarium. We looked at them during the feeding time. Very cute!!!

In the aquarium, you could not only look at the fish, you also had a chance to touch them.

I was touching a ray. Slippy body!!!

These are sardines!!! What do you think of, Ga Jie? These sardines really open their mouth wide and eat the food.

Haha…Penguins penguins.We stayed at the aquarium until it closed at 6pm. Then we went for dinner in “Bubba Gum”. It is the restaurant of Forrest Gump!!!

Remember Forrest Gump playing football? The teammates just told him, “Run, Forrest, Run!!!”. In this restaurant, you use this sign to call for a waiter’s help. You need his service, then you flip to the sign “Stop, Forrest, Stop” or otherwise it is “Run, Forrest, Run.” Fun, huh?

We were very very full after the dinner!!! It was a nice restaurant. The atmosphere was good but the food was a bit too strong for me.
