TGIF~

Thank God It's Friday! This week has passed kind of fast as Wednesday was a public holiday. It was China's National Day and Hong Kong being part of China now gets to celebrate with a day off. Hubby and I went on a tour organised by the management of our condominium. We went on a boat trip for white dolphin-watching around the waters of Hong Kong and also to catch the National Day fireworks at Victoria Harbour. Going on a boat trip is never a thing for me as I get sea-sick very easily. But since it will be our last year in Hong Kong, so I thought I should just brave the trip and hopefully make it a memorable one for us. With the help of 3 sea-sick pills, I didn't get sick at all! :D

One major disappointment of the trip was that there was no sighting of any white dolphins...we sighted some "flying" little fishes though. There must be thousands of them swimming in groups and they would jump out of the water for a few times consecutively. It was quite a funny sight but other than that, it was just endless hours on the boat which had no comfortable seats. All the seats were either plastic or wooden and I developed so much body aches sitting and sleeping on them. The sea-sick pills made me really sleepy...*yawn*

Dinner was at a really rustic fishermen village in Tung Chung. The food was just so-so and the place reminds me of some old kampongs in Malaysia. Not too bad, at least I didn't get sick from eating the food there. After dinner was another 2 hours' boat ride to Victoria Harbour for the National Day fireworks display. I had expected to be blown away but then again, I was disappointed. It wasn't as exhilarating as I had hope it would be. For a moment I was wondering if I had lost it, lost the feelings that I used to have for fireworks... I remember myself weeping with emotions everytime I watch the National Day fireworks back home in Singapore...Hubby reconfirmed that the fireworks display back home was much, much, MUCH FANTASTIC! :D
