SZX - HK day 4

Hi again, I know it’s all ready been delayed way too long for my vacation post. Sorry. So this is the update for day 4 and finale for our Shenzhen-HK vacation.

It was a sudden change plans that we went to Fairy Lake Botanical Garden located 10 minutes or so from our hotel room. I actually found the information about the place from the hotel’s BC, it was the word ‘fairy’ which caught our attention =D okk and here are the pictures.

The place was so huge that we had to ride on a bus to the first station – Hongfa Temple

As we slowly walked across this jungle, we found this man playing a classical Chinese instrument

(p/s aku pegi tengok bunga =) )


As the day progressed, we continued to catch a train to the Windows of The World (located at the last station) ; the replica park with all the most famous wonders / heritage around the world.. you name it!

the Louvre..look so real, with the the escalators downstairs to access the center..just like in Paris!

I love Al-Hambra the most!

But I was so frustrated that we missed several sections; Japanese village, Islamic town (Taj Mahal!), Dinosour era, Firaun gallery.. There was also Parque Guëll , Gaudi's famous work beside la Sagrada Familia . Seriously rasa nak menabung untuk ' unstoppable vacation around the world'.I’ve told you this place was such colossal for one day trip, and we should have reached this place earlier!

The splendor theatre ended with fireworks show, and we loved the parade, it was so amazing and unforgettable! .. even hubby bought the performance CD =)

these are some pictures around Shenzhen,

ayah bought China hp feat digital AlQuran audio, with its tagline 'stay connected with Quran' . Nice one!

SZX - HK visit : Day 2

When we were in China, we brought most of our food…to be safe and SAVE :)

plastik biru mengandungi complete S5 Desperate Hsewives :D

As we reached hotel, ayah was very happy to have her after his anxiousness for her unaccompanied travel, ayah is always worry about uncertain matter! Ya Allah.. But knowing that she could converse in Mandarin, at least it was a big relief, at least she’s lucky than me!

So, off we went out to discover around Shenzhen for the first time as per our itinerary. Shenzhen, situated immediately north of Hong Kong, bordered by Sham Chun river (I have some, very interesting fact about this, but only later..) Shenzhen is only 35 years old in development, and became China’s first and ultimate most successful Special Economic Zone, and I’ve gotta agree with this report because seriously, seeing the rock jungle shook my imagination. I thought Shenzhen could never be compare with Beijing but, maybe because HK as its contiguous factor. Typically him, spending time observing the highway system, dengan lusciousnye! ..apa lagi conference Shenzhen la pula abg..huhu

The Shenzhen Metro system (MTR) was the focal transportation, and today we were scheduled for a visit to the Windows of The World. Like KL Sentral, LuoHu (or Lo Wu for cantonese) LuoHu Commercial Centre, the urban centre for transit and major transportation services; Inter-city buses, railway for long distance travel around China (I would love to extend my itinerary to Guangzhou!), train and immigration control point to HK, and of course taxis ( with receipts.

the said Commercial Centre

Windows of The World, is a replica park (for famous buidings / heritage around the world) situated 13 stations away, but it was already 4:30 pm, we cancelled the trip! and planned it to another day. Sedih la.. tak sempat. I suggested a returns back to the main station..tapi takpe, untuk mengubati hati, we went to the Commercial City! I knew my sisters just love this idea to death..haha.. LuoHu Commercial City is a mall of 5 stories tall and well-known for its bargain (dah google siap2) AKU TERER MEMBARGAIN, WEH!!

Kata mulut : sedihnya Windows of The World
Kata hati : aku nak pakai baju nih juga pegi nanti..tak kira, sebab dah berangan untuk gambar!!

p/s off to Kuantan tonight.

sebenarnya aku tak suka rokok

Me and hubby went again to the airport to fetch my sister by bus from the Commercial Centre. The flight arrival was scheduled at 12:35pm, but as mentioned earlier the strict immigration we only met at 2:30pm

SZX-HK visit : Day 1

How early should we arrive at the airport before our schedules departure? I never experience a comfy time, walking gracefully and pulling luggage with smile. NO. Semuanya adalah ribut, kalut dan kecoh!

Upon arriving at LCC terminal for our flight to Shenzhen, I saw the completed construction area for international departure, and not to my imagination; it was hard to find people wearing mask..selamba je pun??. This moment I knew I would be aside from a few rare paranoia people T_T
After check-in, I quickly ran to the new opened Oldtown at the terminal and yes I bought some bread which were overlooked from our own packed food to China. ( Hi..saya beli sebungkus roti di Oldtown) sounds lame, but with favorable chance orang tu kasi juga. Caya lah Oldtown! Huhu

At 5:30 pm (flight delay macam biasa) we took off on our flight for Shenzhen.. , and after 3 hrs 55 mins we arrived at Boa’an International Airport. ..

ada bas jemput

Poyo2 je pakai mask kan, time makan tu makan juga..lapar, beb! adik aku tuh macam terpaksa menerima arahan je :D

serius!

.. and spent about 2 hours for the famous strict and hassle China immigration, and medical check (for H1N1)..tiba2 la kepala nak panas time ni kan.. hubby cakap letak kepala kat aircond :D make sense! Hmm.., yes my luggage was opened for inspection..ya Allah, kecoh! (Hi bra saya colorful! )

We found no train system from the airport to the commercial city.. but the provided bus shuttle. It was already after 11pm so we decided for taxi..tapi dapat prebet sapu mana ntah, cinabeng betul..tapi selesa juga..drove us to Muslim Hotel, LuoHu. I slept tiredly for tomorrow early out and return to the airport again to fetch Khairunie.

p/s the receptionist lady..huhu ‘english’ dia comel sampai kitorang tak faham.
