香港续集 - La Familia Fun (V)

The final day in Hong Kong.

Stranded with bowls of cup noodles we bought as "emergency food", we had them for breakfast. Mum and sis went to visit the famous Wong Tai Sin temple. I had my share the last visit and decided to sacrifice that for a few more hours of lazing in bed.

Dad, as usual, was more than happy to stay in the hotel room. I switched on the TV for him, while I had a nice bath for the 2nd and last time in Hong Kong. Shame that I skipped the morning swim. Then I prepared two cups of tea to go with the Tiramisu cake I bought the day before. Indulgence!
They returned and we checked out. Disappointed that the hotel didn't even offer us a room for the late check out at 4pm - I have read about them doing so! I also didn't like the fact that I had to pay a huge amount of deposit with my credit card when I had fully paid for the room in advance! Our flight was 8pm but the airport transfer would only pick us at 5ish. So we left the luggages with the concierge and we wandered off for lunch and last minute shopping at Festival Walk, a station away on the MTR.
Mum and dad made new friends with an old couple sitting besides them while waiting for me and sis to get some last minute souvenirs. We then had a late lunch at Wang Jia Sha, a shanghainese Dim Sum place... the food wasn't too bad at all, so was the service. Mum liked them, so did I. The little buns were yum.

We went back around 4ish, so they could just sit and relax while sis went back alone to ladies market to get a bag similar to the one I bought. Not very helpful, I had mum nagging the whole time why she wasn't back yet!

The flight was pretty full, we didn't get a chance to check in early online so we didn't get the best seats. Centered in the centre rows near the back of the plane. The Cathay inflight service was disappointing, they never responded to requests except for request to buy duty-free products! The food too was horrible... I didn't even want to finish it. We were so glad we ate Popeye in the airport before we boarded. Sis and parents took the paid buggy ride since the gate was superb far, I chose to walk myself there which took as much time as their buggy ride did! LOL.

Finally home. Oh yes, and surprisingly with additional shopping bags, we still could fit in the cab nicely!
