Motykas in Asia 2015 Part 10 - Hong Kong

First morning in Hong Kong!

On my last night in Bali I suddenly got rashes on my leg. So the first thing I did as soon as I got out of the hotel was stop at a pharmacy to get myself antihistamines.
Lucky I found one right away!

 

I met up with TM and MM and got some buns for breakfast.. Apparently it says $3 each or 3 for $8. 


We continued with HK style coffee...., ordered with some dificulties... lol. Then I got smarter and asked my sister to teach me the important phrases. :D



Then we started off our Journey.... We took the tram or Dingding as they called it to get to the Peak. It was easy and cheap way to get around, and you also get to see the streets.












At The Peak they had a Madame Tussaud's Wax Museum and this Bruce Lee was standing at the entrance attracting people.







From there we had lunch at a tiny little cafe and we had BBQ Pork Noodles. Man, it was soooo good! Sorry I don't have any pictures! We continued walking around and went to Mong Kok because we had dinner plans with our friend and his lovely wife at a famous dimsum restaurant in the area. I think it was called One Dim Sum. Still no picture! I can't believe it!

Anyway after dinner we went to Tsim Sha Tsui area to look at the HK Skyline at night.





Since the last time I was there, there was a new place they built or renovated right by the harbour. It's a very pretty place to walk around at night.






From there we took the ferry back, and we were lucky it was a free-ride day!



We walked around some more but unfortunately I do not have any more pictures from that day... Sorry!

Please stay tuned for Part 11...

Nintendo Switch Sleeve Tutorial

Hi! I'm Kirana from woofkiki.blogspot.co.id . I am going to write an introduction for this blog post. We bought a Nintendo Switch in Japan.  I really liked it and played with it almost everyday. If you're wondering what a Nintendo Switch is, it is a video game where you can basically  "switch" everything. The joy-cons and even the game! You can also connect it to your TV. It would be nice to bring it around with you, but when you put it in your bag... Oh no! The screen scratched! So, this is a sleeve that will fix that. Let's get started!😊 Kirana Now the tutorial (by Kirana's mom)... 1. Make your pattern according to the picture below. It is basically a 6"x24" rectangle with a semi circle at one end. Note: this is not a printable pattern 1. Cut your outer fabric, lining, and batting(optional). In this tutorial, I used minky for lining and a pre-quilted fabric for the cover, so I didn't need extra batting. For batting, I recomm...

Japan Winter Holiday 2017 Part 7 - Otaru Sakaimachi

On our second day in Otaru after we had breakfast and ice cream , we continued walking to Sakaimachi. This shopping street is one of the busiest in the city and is where a lot of Otaru attraction is located. In front of one of the stores there, we saw this cute dog wearing a Minion outfit. Of course Miss Kiki jumped and squealed and asked if she could pet it. We asked permission from the owner to take a picture with it. Along the street they have rock statues in the shape of famous characters like Anpanman and Mickey Mouse. With Anpanman It was a very nice day, we were able to walk around and had fun without feeling cold even though there were a lot of ice and snow. Check out the platforms they set up on the hill. We think that it's to prevent snow slides... Most of the buildings there were old style,,,  Many shops sell fresh seafood and they would cook it for you by order. As we walked past a souvenir shop, we saw a poster for these snowball make...

Spring in Egypt Part 9 - Luxor Temple

At the time when we arrived at Luxor temple it was already after dusk and it became a little difficult to take photos. I compensated by setting my camera ISO to 4000 to make tripod-less picture-taking possible even though the grains became more visible. Just like the previous nights, the moon still looked round to me. I wasn't sure which one of those moons was the actual full moon. We walked around the temple first with Michael for explanations about the temple. In the distance we were able to hear the adzan calling the people for prayer. Situated in the east bank, the construction of the temple was started by Amenhotep III, continued and finished by the famous King Tut and Horemheb, and then added on to by Rameses II and finally by Alexander the Great. Unlike the other temples we had previously visited, this temple is not dedicated to a single cult/god. Instead, it is used as a place to rejuvenate kingship. May of the kings were said to have been coronated at this temple. ...
