Hong Kong – Macao trip report

This year’s TYLin’s company trip was to Hong Kong – Macao from 17 to 20 May. We had a good time, but very tiring. A short itenerary report:
 
  • 17 May – arrival after 4 hours of flight, we woke up at 3:00am to meet at Changi Airport at 4:30am, and to catch the 6:30am flight by JetStar to Hong Kong. Then it is city tour by bus in the afternoon, we visited Aberdeen, Convention Centre, 1/2-way to The Peak, Repulse Bay and TSL Jeweleries. The night was free & easy and we walked Kowloon and had dinner with some colleagues at a local restaurant.
  • 18 May – Free & easy day, we took MTR to Disneyland with 9 others, while the rest went on their own sight-seeing or shopping. Hot day, but better than rain. We arrived at Disneyland at 9:30am, and waited for the opening at 10:00am. Esther was sick (fever and vomited) in the morning and had to miss out on two rides, but thank God she recovered by noon. We managed to watch all the shows and took all the rides we had planned, except for the High School Musical show which was postponed. By 6:00pm, David was so tired he slept through the Winnie the Pooh ride. We stayed on for the final fireworks at 8:00pm, and took a taxi back to hotel at 8:30pm. Dinner was at Charlie Brown Cafe.
  • 19 May – Took ferry over to Macao after lousy dim-sum breakfast at a restaurant. Free & easy at Macau but raining cats and dogs, so we spent the afternoon in The Venetian, then took taxi back to hotel, when we bumped in to the gang that went over to Zhuhai for shopping. We then had a very hearty dinner at a local restaurant, A Vencedora. After that we walked back to the hotel.
  • 20 May – City tour by bus from 10:00am, but still raining. Had some intermitent good weather between the rains at some tourist attractions. We visited the Kun Iam statue, A-ma Temple, St. Paul’s Cathedral and Macao Tower. Then, we flew back to Singapore by JetStar at 6:30pm and arrived about 10:30pm.
While it was hectic, tiring and dampened by the rain, we had a good time as a family, and interacting with my colleagues. Also, this shall be a ‘last’ trip for a long time to come, as Grace is now 3 months pregnant. Photos and trip details posted here.
