Hong Kong and Macau Tour November 2018


Hi Guys,

Sharing you my wonderful Hong Kong and Macau Trip ;)

November 5-10, 2018

Well, it was a long overdue plan but here we are and made it! :)

*** Special Thank You to my traveler friend AnjCelis - for lending me Octopus Cards, we saved a lot because of you hehe :)***

We departed around 4pm from Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA Terminal 3) and arrived at around 7 pm to Hong Kong International Airport.

Day 1 :)
Look at that cutie brownie passport. That's mine haha! Don't judge the book by its cover. :)
With my friend teeelAileen Where are we going? Say "Hong Kong!" and then smile :) 

Must have "boarding pass" photo remembrance :)
Finally, passed the immigration :) "Big Deal?!" Yeah, if you know what I mean :)

Yahoo! My first time to see and ride double-decker bus @ HKIA :)

Found our Mansion :) Where we stayed during our whole trip :) 

Mirador Mansion, Tsim Sha Tsui :)
I'm not going to tell you the exact hotel name :) 
***FYI, we bought Disneyland ticket and 3-day I-venture pass from Klook***


Day 2 :)

Of course, Disney Land the "whole day"!
This is really "The Happiest Place on Earth!"
If I can live here, I will :)
I love you, Mickey and Minnie! :)
Did I say "It's required and must have a photo" again?! 
Cable car! So happy because it's my first time :)
Ride all you can :)


Day 3 :)

Welcome to Macau :)

The Ruins of St. Paul's are the ruins of a 17th-century complex in Santo António, Macau, China. It includes what was originally St. Paul's College and the Church of St. Paul is also known as "Mater Dei", a 17th-century Portuguese church dedicated to Saint Paul the Apostle.
 Macau Tower is a tower located in Macau. The tower measures 338 m (1,109 ft) in height from ground level to the highest point. Its observation deck features panoramic views, restaurants, theaters, shopping malls and the Skywalk X, a thrilling walking tour around the outer rim
Who wants to jump off ?! :)
Ohhh.. Brave enough! 

Day 4 :)

Ocean Park and Victoria Harbour Cruise :)

We started the tour at 10:00 am :)

I never had a solo pic here :) Welcome to "Ocean Park" :)
Under the sea :)
Look at that fountain! :) 
One of the best :)
Killer smile :)
You don't need to be jelly :)

We finished the tour at 4:00 pm.

At 5:00 pm, we started our Victoria Harbour Cruise :)

The night lights across the harbor is a wonderful sight. 
Unli Drinks anyone?!
Enjoying the view :)
Timeless :)
Day 5 :)

Peak Tram , Mongkok and Tsim Sha Tsui  :)


The venerable Peak Tram is, as most passengers agree, the only way to truly experience the beauty of Hong Kong's natural wonders.
Inside The Peak Tower, there is a dazzling array of restaurants, shops and entertainment venues set against the beautiful backdrop of the city.
Mong Kok is Hong Kong’s most congested shopping and residential district. Like "Divisoria" of the Philippines. :)
Tried some local cuisine .. and ahhh.. the Milk Tea :)
I was having a hard time to choose :)
In Tsim Sha Tsui, grocery store where you can buy cheap local goods :) Lots of chocolates :)

Day 6 :)

Time to go Home :)

Departed at 10:40 am from HKIA and arrived safe and sound at 1:00  pm :)

Thank You Hong Kong and Macau :)

Thank You Lord for all the blessing and keeping us safe :)

I love You very much.

Love,
Tine-Tine

Five Fingers Cove and Laki Beach Mariveles Bataan ;) 2018

October 24, 2018

Hi Guys,

Sharing this amazing Five Fingers Cove and Laki Beach Bataan day trip tour with my family :)



It was all arranged by Travel 360 (recommended as the whole team was very accommodating! Shout out to Ms. Cla :)

We paid Php 1499.00 / head

Package inclusion as follows:


- Round trip Van transfer 

- Round Trip Boat Transfer 
- Five Fingers Cove hopping 
- All entrance and environmental Fees ( as in no hidden charges!)
- Boodle Fight Buffet Lunch 


********

We departed 12:30 am from Greenfields Shaw and arrived at Mariveles Bataan around 5:00 am.


 We had our breakfast between 5:00 and 6:30 am.

We started cove hopping at 6:30 am and visited the following :


Nagbintana Arcc
Five Fingers Rock Formation
Apatot Bat Cave
Tinanlakan Cliff (40ft Cliff Jump) - no one in our group tried to jump! #feelingScared
Talain Clove
Talain Cliff (20ft Cliff) - we asked one of the boatmen to try cliff diving for amusement! haha, they did not fail us, of course :)









At 11:00 am we headed to Laki Beach  (we swam like there's no tomorrow here!)





At 12:00 pm, we had our lunch.

Boodle Fight hosted by Travel 360 :)




At 3:00 pm, we got back to jump-off point boat transfer to get to Sisiman Lighthouse.

Well, we're not able to see the lighthouse because all of us were so tired to hike or walk 30 mins (I think) to reach it.

So we decided to go home.

At 4:30 pm, we departed from Bataan and arrived 9:30 pm Manila (this includes a side trip to restaurant/restroom).

Overall, it was a fun and memorable experience.

We really had fun :)))

Thank you, Lord, for guiding us, for all the blessings and for keeping us safe always.

We love you very much. :)


Love, Tine-Tine :)
