Day 3- Ocean Park, Lamma island, Argyle Centre.



we kick start our day with dim sum at this "lian xiang lou"
located at 160-164 wellington street, Central MTR.
Asked for the directions all the way haha we dont like maps,
dear say like that den is free and easy lol.
Took some time to find this, got to walk up slope somemore. lol.


Went there because wanted to try the traditional HK dim sum restaurant style.
they push carts of dim sum den u must go and take on ur own.
seats also must find on ur own and share with people.
didnt really enjoy this kind of style,
cos we hardly ate our favourite dim sums. :(


nvm, we then MTR again to Admiralty for bus 629 to ocean park.
bought the tickets from our hostel, HKD230 per pax.



the bus Q super duper long, like have to walk 3 mins from the start to the end kind.
nvr see such long queues before, kua zhang.



but thankfully the queue moves quite fast, cos there're alot of buses.

decided to give up cos the sun was freaking hot,
next time shall take those really fly away kind. lol!


went to hide in some aircon place,
where u can see weird kind of goldfishes,
