TRAVEL DAY 3 - OCEAN PARK | 5D 4 N @ HONG KONG & MACAU
Alright,
time for Hong Kong Trip Day 3
sharing!
Sorry to
keep you guys waiting for a while –just able to clear few pending reviews especially
on seafood. Talking about it again,
I’m drooling for the huge USA Live Oysters once more! Haha………………
So how do
we start off our Day 3 itinerary the impromptu way? As shared with you guys
earlier, I actually went on the F&E tour without any itinerary, but luckily
got guarded and under good hands of Romeo who currently could be addressed as
partially Hongkie white collar for now, hehe
So we
kick off our journey that morning with some brunch (after nearly whole day out
at Macau’s of Ruins of St. Paul’s) at the famous Goose noodle
shop- Yat Lok Roast Goose (一樂燒鵝) located at Central.
Address: G/F,
28 Stanley Street, Central Hong Kong
I guess
this is my first time tasting roast goose but it somehow still reminds me of
roast duck kind of texture, if not better. Love the thin, crispy skin of rather
“moist” tender skin- it can be tad oily thought, but that somehow adds more
fragrance to the poultry.
We have 2
versions- soup and dry, with our votes eventually goes to the former one, as it’s
more flavourful, whilst the latter appears quite salty to my taste. In addition
to that, I find that somehow, wan tan noodles in Hong King seems to be very
heavy on the alkaline taste which usually don’t go so well with my tastebud.
Nevertheless, I really enjoy and love the succulently and fragrantly roasted
goose, minus off the fats (=
Done the
quick grubs, off we go to Ocean Park,
after some carefree roaming at IFC mall,that
subconsciously had me comparing it with our Pavilion KL while we figuring our
way to the bus stop for the correct ride.

Soon we
reach Admiralty MTR and boarded the Citybus (Route 629) scheduled at 2pm.
It was
definitely a hot day with scorching sun, BUT undeniably PERFECT setting for shutterbugs!
We tried
to cover as much as we could- went to Adventures
in Australia (but the Koala kept shying away from me, sob sob…….), Bouncer House (for the kids), Crazy
Galleon (the pirate ship), Flying Swing,
Sea Life Carousel (don’t laugh :P ), Eagle,
Grand Aquarium, North Pole Encounter
(witnessed the agility of pacific walruses), The Abyss (repeat the scary ride of Solero shot in Genting Highland
last time), Ocean Theatre (lovely
and brilliantly well-trained dolphins!), a walk down the memory lane of Old Hong Kong, Sea Jelly Spectacular (the wonders of ocean’s deep blue sea), South Pole Spectacular (aww, those penguins
are so so cute!!), Symbio! ( the musical
fountain), The Dragon (roller
coaster ride, braved myself and took twice! ** giggling), Whirly Bird (free-flying swing that I enjoyed very much- just sit
and relax), Ferrris Wheel (bathed in
the moment of serenity overseeing the panoramic view and the stunning
picturesque ‘live paintings’ from the Cable
Car ride! Pure bliss!!!

After a whole day out at the theme park, I don’t feel any of my
body part ache or worn out, but still very much on the cloud 9! The only thing
reality hits was……………..the tummy started to drum roll- time for dinner at The Spaghetti House!
Address: Shop 68B, G/F, Admiralty Centre, 18 Harcourt Road,
Admiralty
Exit A, Admiralty MTR

Perhaps some quick bites on KFC
ice cream in Hong Kong?? I don’t think they have the vanilla soft serve
here, hehe.
And so another day wrapped up with a bang enthusiastically! No….no
booze tonight, but nice milk before sleep and after waking up tomorrow.
Magically, another surprise discovery en route tomorrow which I personally love
it dearly and had me in awe, even till now…………
C’est la vie (=
