2010 Trip - Day 1 Kuala Lumpur and Day 2 Hong Kong

We were home exactly two weeks ago and we had like about three weeks vacation. As usual, time flies, we have been home for exactly two weeks and I just had time to view all the pictures.

We booked this AirAsia tickets like months before the trip, maybe somewhere in December for 5 millions Rupiah or about USD 550 (3 seats, Medan - KL - HK - KL - Medan). We actually didn't plan for this trip, it was all started when my aunt asked us to go with them to HK and Xiamen in June (school holidays). Of course I were interested to join (it's always fun to go with them), but then it's gonna be very hot at that time. Mr. scared that we won't be able to handle Dave as honestly Dave doesn't like hot (who does?) and can get very grumpy and hard to handle. Thus, we decided to go in April after the "cheng beng" festival.

Well, we believe that it's better to keep it as a secret for the things that is still way to long to get done. Thus, we never talked about this trip until now... lol...

Day 1: Medan - Kuala Lumpur
We had an evening flight from Medan to Kuala Lumpur, stayed one night at SIL's place (Thanks SIL ^^). Mr doesn't like to have connecting flight as he thought that the risk is too high.

Day 2: Kuala Lumpur - HK
It's a 4 hour flight flom KL to HK and it wasn't fun at all to fly with budget airlines as there are no free foods and drinks. LOL... and we had turbulence all the time. It was already 5.30 pm when we got our luggages in the airport. Later on we took the airport express train to Hong Kong Station and took a cab to brother-in-law's (BIL) place. In the beginning, we planned to stay at my aunt's place in Sai Wan Ho; we didn't plan to stay at BIL's place as we thought that he had moved back to Sydney. Apparently, it's extended till mid of May. So, lucky us.... (Thanks BIL...)

In the Airport Express Train...


We had to cover Dave with the blanket while we were waiting for the taxi at Hong Kong Station. The queue was extremely long and the taxi were taking so long....



Later at night, we didn't do much. We paid a visit to my aunt's place and had a little chat with uncle-in-law and their 2 daughters. Hoho... My cousins don't really talk in English or Chinese, and I don't really talk in Cantonese... SO, the communication was really out.... My uncle-in-law does talk in "Hai Lok Hong" dialect that I could understand a little bit...


We had our late dinner at Cafe de Coral and we ordered seafood bake rice with Hot milk tea...
