Super friends conquers Hong Kong - Day 1

This is our much awaited trip of the year. Our flights were booked as early as December 25, 2008, we saved money and planned the IT. This HK trip with the super friends is indeed an experience to remember and made the bond even more tight. I brought home more then 2,000 pictures and I just finished uploading them *whew*. So here's our story...

Day 1.

I got out from office that morning of March 4, 2009, then I hurried home to fix some more things I need to bring. We waited for Aimz at McDo Que ave. so we could go to the airport together. We arrived at terminal 3 at around 1:30pm and the rest of the super friends were already waiting for us.

When our bags were in, we bought snacks on the second floor. Terminal 3 is far more spacious than the other terminals. But some of the stalls are not yet occupied.

We passed the immigration counter and got on the plane just in time. This is my first time to fly with cebu pac so I was praying that it's a smooth one - it was.

The flight lasted for 2 hours and before we knew it, we were in Hong Kong! We were greeted by different faces and the airport was... huge! It's very different when the first time I got there... 12 years ago.

We got to the boarding house at exactly 9:30PM. We settled down and went out to check the neighborhood. The place we stayed was in the heart of the city so it was easy for us to get around. We found ourselves at the Golden Lake restaurant, in front of Kawloon Park, and there we had dinner. We all had assorted noodles and the servings were surprisingly plenty. Good for two. So obviously, we had so many left overs. Sayang!

After that interesting dinner, we headed back to our place and hit the sack because it was a big day for us the next day. See pictures *here*
