HKG 22-26 Feb 09 (Day 1)

Eve
A busy day for us as we were attending a talk at Adel's CC that lasted till noon. Afterwhich we had to pack our luggage. I tried to get Adel to sleep but she did not want to. We were supposed to join Catherine and family for church service. The plan was aborted as we were still packing and need to get up 3am in the morning.

Adel slept around 8pm after coaxing her that we were going away early in the morning. Sam and I managed to get to bed only at 9pm.


Day 1
We woke up early and did last minute check before we got the kids up and get ready for airport. Adel woke up hassle free, guess she was all ready for Disneyland.
We were the first to arrive, followed by Mum and the twins (thanks to Romi who picked them up). 2nd sis and brother-in-law arrived 10 minutes after the stipulated time to meet and off we went to check-in.

Kennzo fell asleep when the plane took off and he only woke up when we reached. Adl on the other hand was all energised and playing on the flight. Upon reaching HKG, the men went on to find the way to the hotel. We took airport express to Kowloon and transfered to the free shuttle to our hotel. It was already noon when we arrived at the hotel but it was not time for check-in.

Lunch was at the restaurant few shops away from our hotel. Adel was showing signs of tireness while we had lunch. We got her to stay in the pram and walked all the way from Tsim Sha Sui to Yau Ma Tei, combing Temple Street and Ladies Market. This little girl finally slept after a long day.

Dinner was at a local cafeteria and Adel woke up for her dinner too. We decided to go back to hotel and rest while 2nd sister and BIL went ahead for more shopping.
We were all deadbeat from the early flight and all day long walking. The kids had a good night sleep as well.
