January 10, 2017 by Mellie Dee Leave a Comment

Cafe de Coral | Hong Kong | Breakfast

Vincent was running late so the parents, Kathy, Sissy and I went to breakfast at Cafe de Coral where I split a meal with Sissy.

Hong Kong Landscape 3

We walked around for a short period before meeting up with Vincent to ride the subway towards Lamma Island.

Hong Kong to Cheung Chau Ferry

Once we arrived we realized we had just missed the ferry that takes us to Lamma Island. Since we had to wait another hour for the next one we decided to go to Cheung Chau instead.

Cheung Chau, Hong Kong | Ferry Docking

On the ferry we talked about various things before the majority fell asleep.

Cheung Chau, Hong Kong | Ferry Docked

Soon enough we were docked.

Cheung Chau, Hong Kong | Arrival

Hello, Cheung Chau.

Cheung Chau, Hong Kong | Boats & Bikes

There were so many bikes and boats! Everything looked pretty much the same … how does anyone know which one is theirs?

Cheung Chau, Hong Kong | Original Building

We started walking around and saw a historic building that is being preserved.

Love Locks | Cheung Chau, Hong Kong

And we ran across Love Locks where couples lock in their love and hope it lasts.

Cheung Chau, Hong Kong | Drying Shrimp

This old man was shelling and deveining shrimp before laying them out to dry. He had so much more on the other side of him!

Cheung Chau, Hong Kong | Fish Balls

Mum was on the search for jumbo fish balls she had when we was younger.

Cheung Chau, Hong Kong | Regular Jumbo Fish Balls

And when she finally found the regular ones she was ecstatic.

Cheung Chau, Hong Kong | Curried Jumbo Fish Balls

Then she walked to the next stall and saw curried balls and she went crazy.

Cheung Chau, Hong Kong | Egg Waffles

Sissy, on the other hand, was all up in that egg waffle.

Seafood Restaurant | Cheung Chau, Hong Kong

We walked towards a seafood restaurant for lunch by the water.

Seafood Restaurant | Cheung Chau, Hong Kong | Fresh Seafood

All their seafood is fresh and won’t be picked until you order.

Seafood Restaurant | Cheung Chau, Hong Kong | Food

I won’t ever come back to this restaurant since the food was sub par but happy I got to eat like the people I see on the telly.

Cheung Chau, Hong Kong | Police Boat

As we ate I noticed a police boat. How cute is that?!?!

Cheung Chau, Hong Kong | Departure

We walked around and decided it was time to go back to mainland Hong Kong.

The Hong Kong Jockey Club | Hong Kong

A ferry ride later we landed in The Hong Kong Jockey Club where the parents and Kathy bought their tickets on horse races.

Lan Kwai Fong, Hong Kong | Street

Vincent showed us Lan Kwai Fong street, the street of drinking and partying. We have never gotten to witness it firsthand. Hopefully one day!

Shanghi Popo | Hong Kong | Dumplings

We rode the subway back, close to home, to have dinner of dumplings at Shanghai Popo.

Hot Star | Hong Kong | Sweet Potato Fries & Fried Chicken

And a small snack after dinner of fried chicken and sweet potato fries.

Mango Juice | Hong Kong

And a mango juice type deal. I’m not a lover of mangoes so I thought the flavour was strong and too sweet while everyone else felt the opposite and believed they added water to dilute the juice.

Hong Kong Shopping 4

We walked to another mall center to check out a couple more stores. Around this time was when I realized my feet were killing me. I bought a foot cushion thing from Modern House and stuck it in my shoe but it didn’t do much since the blisters had already formed. TMI?

Pet Store | Hong Kong | Pomeranian

As we headed home, we walked by the pet store and saw little puppies for sale. $1000 give or take. Yikes.

ADOPT. DON’T SHOP!
