Bubba Gump @ The Peak

I first saw Bubba Gump resto when we were at Santa Monica pier in LA. But wasnt able to try it  while in LA. So when I had the oportunity to visit one of its branch in Hongkong, i was delectably delighted. lol...

cozy cowboy feel

oh yeah!!

while waiting for our orders..

finally,..... (drools)

caught in the act while rummaging  mama's plate of dixie style baby back ribs

a closer look of that heavenly thing...

the resto is supposed to have a good view of Hongkong... grrr to this thick fogs

Never mind the good view, as long as we had a filling and delectable meal and of course a happy stomach.

MADAMME TUSSAUDS- HONGKONG (DAY 2)

I've been to other Madame Tussauds locations in the past, like hollywood and Tokyo and this one in  Hongkong is fairly new when went there with my mom and brother. And when it's sometimes hard to find celebrities out in public, coming to the wax museum comes close to seeing the real thing.

Madame Tussauds Hong Kong is located at the Peak Tower and I highly recommend buying the packaged ticket which includes the entry fee and also the tram fees, it would be quite pricey if you pay everything separately for a moderately-sized attraction.

You can actually get up close to these wax figures and have lots of fun. Very interactive exhibits, though the museum itself seems smaller than these other locations. 

One can tell how much effort and time is invested in each of the celebrity figures.  Guests are welcome to touch and take pictures which completes the experience.  Naturally there is expected wear and tear on a daily basis - incredibly each figure looks fresh and ready to entertain everyday!

HONGKONG DAY 2- The Peak

Woke up that day late and yet excited for our next adventure while in Hongkong. Only to find out of the heavy and persistent rain that could ruin our schedule going to the Peak. But just as is , the show must  go on.

breakfast at the hotel before heading to our next adventure

mama having a hearty breakfast @ Royal pacific Hotel and towers

this train will take us to central- the starting point if you plan to go to The Peak. Once we reached central station we took a taxi going up to The Peak.

... only to be disapointed with this heavy fog... look cant even take a decent picture with this loser fogs. oh well we really need to be back here.

RUINS OF ST. PAUL- MACAU

After a very hearty lunch and before going back to Hongkong, we dropped by this famous/ historic landmark in macau- The ruins of St. Paul.

The façade sits on a small hill, with 66 stone steps leading up to it. But, after a whole day of walking, I just cant drag my big ass  to even one step leading up to the ruins.

... even mama and bro cant drag their tired feet too.

amazing facade...

we are thirsty from all the walking... yeah a fruit juice at one of this stands will do

... be able to grab a map of the city from here...

Now time to say bye Macau. We will definitely be back.

VENETIAN HOTEL-MACAU

This hotel is a luxury at its finest . The moment you enter this place, you will definitely be transported to a different world.

How you wished you can convert them all to trinkets and necklaces...ah yeah and rings...

yeah ma, you just cant get enough of them...

including those intricate  ceilings...

.... escalators

and even their "always day ceilings" in the canal shoppes

...and more shops

...and also a new diesel watch for bro

... and people checking in..

CITY OF DREAMS -MACAU

Our first stop while in Macau- city of dreams...

City of dreams  is in the style of a podium, with four towers: namely the Hard Rock Hotel, Crown Towers Hotel, and the Grand Hyatt Macau (2 towers)

One of the towers at city of dreams macau. look at mom and bro's grin...

I picked a good spot for this as there are so many tourist trying to get a pose for the cam upon going down the bus.

exactly what you need if you want to play......

casino!!! oh no ma, not unless you win millions in one try. (lol)

yeah, thats right.. lets just buy you a coach bag instead...

and grab something to eat at Mcdo

and another one. (sosyal)

Now hurry up for our next stop...
