Hongkong Diaries: The Peak & Avenue of Stars

My 2nd HK post! Sorry if delayed. :/ I was supposed to blog last night but I fell asleep while Mich was massaging me (had severe back and leg pain! Tanda ko na boo!). So on our 2nd day here, we visited Victoria Peak (3rd time in HK’s a charm! FINALLY got to see this place), Madame Tussauds and Avenue of Stars. It’s still cold here and we’re so loving it! It definitely makes long walks bearable. :) Here’s a photo diary, starting with my 1 million variations outfit post… Lols.


Thrifted dress & coat, Dorothy Perkins tights, Mango boots, SM surplus scarf, Greenhills gloves

Lunch at the MTR station
$50+ lunch--not very good. eek.

walked from Central station to the Peak Tram terminal
paid $195 for a 2-way tram ride + madame tussauds museum

bongga the outfit nila ate and kuya
went there at around 3pm, perfect lang coz d pa madami peeps
the train was at a 45 degree angle!!! coolio
We first went to the Madame Tussauds museum where we spent 2 hours goofing around and taking photos with waxed replicas of celebrities. Will save that for another post (too many photos!). Chilled for a few hours before heading down. :)

mahalia snack--$70 for the coffee and sandwich!
pero cge worth it naman the view:)
it was foggy that day--hit and miss if you tour during the cold months

After visiting Victoria Peak, we then decided to just tweak our itinerary and head straight to the lights & sounds show at the Avenue of the Stars...

Holiday in Cebu: Day 1 & 2

I'm chillin' here in the most chill city ever. Heh. As always, I'm having a blast here in Cebu! Staying in Gran Prix again (I know I said never again) but I didn't have much choice coz all the other nicer hotels are fully booked. But it's not so bad either (room's super small though, feels like i'm in a balikbayan box!). Anyway, met some blogger friends today! Here are photos from today and yesterday...

 
 
Heir Clothing polka top, SM skirt, Diva gold cuff, Closet Chic zebra print bag, Grendha flats

This sheer polka top is just so pretty noh? Love the blue/white combination. It goes perfectly well with this red skirt I bought from SM. Okay, for this trip I didn't bring any heels or wedges coz I thought I'd be walking all day. It's a good thing I brought my cutie patootsie Grendha peeptoe flats! Saved my mini gimik life. Lol.

dinner at Patio Ecila with Van, Rob and Chyrel!

mich and the band guy haha

getting ready for the picture taking

and we're all wearing red! haha cool.

jeepney ride to our 2nd destination--La Merea!

waiting for our chairs

triple chocolate something brownie--sarap! AND chamomile tea (im such a granny hehe)

Mich's UP friends! Gen, Mich, Tessa, Mich (puro sila mich seryoso!)

Hi Mich! Thanks for reading my humble blog!:)

Transferred to Moon Cafe to bond with Mich's UP friends:)

So I spent my 1st night in Cebu with manila friends. Landed at around 10:30pm and then headed straight to the meeting place. Came home na at around 5am! Bongga. Too bad wasn't able to take photos coz bawal daw. May magagalit. Lols. And here are photos from the previous day...

That's it for now. Long day tomorrooooooow..and more photos! Will be going on a trip with Mich's family--zipline and food trip and then will be meeting up with blogger friends at night. I'll be attending their Sendong fundraising event! If you're reading this and you're here in Cebu, hope you could drop by tomorrow at Kartzone, 8pm! There would be a pop up bazaar plus drink all you can for P200. There would be bands playing too. 

Let's all help our brothers and sisters affected by Sendong. See you there!:)
