Mui Wo.
Some water lanterns.
The boy band preforming.
Just what I always wanted...to get photographed with an Asian boy band. The guy on the right was a good singer.
After we left the festival, Steph and I decided to go check out Hong Kong Disney Land. The MTR there was awesome! Not only did it play Disney music continuously from the time we left Sunny Bay, passed Inspiration Lake, and got to Disney Land, it had Mickey Mouse shaped windows and couches on the inside. Once we got there, we did not want to pay to go in so we just took pictures and walked around the outside of the park. There was a cool fountain that had Mickey Mouse surfing the water that was coming out of Monstro blowhole (the whale who swallowed Pinnochio and also Geppetto). We also had perfect timing because we caught the firework show at the castle from outside the park. After the fireworks, we headed back to the “magical gateway to modern day Hong Kong” or something like that—that was what the MTR said when we got back.
Lounging on the MTR.
The fountain lights changed colors. It was pretty.
Me and Mushu.
Firework show. It was pretty good, even from outside of the park.
The next day, Lena, Sana, Alysha, and I went to the Peninsula Hotel in TST for high tea. I felt like I was in Gossip Girl. The Peninsula is the nicest hotel in Hong Kong and has the best view. Luckily we got there early because we read that it is so popular sometimes you have to wait over an hour to be seated. The food was okay, kind of over priced, but we went more for the experience. During tea there was even a band playing classical music.
We had tea and these were our crumpets.
At the end of tea.
Aww the band made everything that much better.
The last event of the weekend consisted of us heading to Shek-O Beach. This beach is on Hong Kong Island, and it so different from the city you feel like you are in another country.
Shek-O Beach.
The water was pretty cold.
I like this picture.
Looking off into the distance.
