Ferry ride from Kowloon to Hong Kong


Central Pier

I was on the Ferry! One of the most touristy and relaxing things to do in Hong Kong is to ride the ferry.

It is extremely cheap and doesn't take a lot of time. I would say the ride took less than 10 mins!

I enjoyed riding the ferry so much... I loved the feeling of the breeze when it hits my face and I love the smell of the ocean. Speaking of the Harbour, I was extremely impressed by how clean it has gotten over the years! Hong Kong has definitely gone a long way to keeping its water cleaner!

I am always fascinated by how a ship works and every time I ride the ferry, I get to see how the crew operates the ferry.

I would suggest that you opt for lower deck so you can be closer to the water and feel the breeze and you can also stick your head outside... Upper deck is indoor and I find the seats to be too luxurious for riding a ferry.

Fascinating Lights @ Element


Fascinating Lights @ Element
lights... what is art and display?

Today, I spent the day at Element Mall. I know that it is filled with luxury brands but I am intrigued by their window displays... There are quite a number of stores there that are not so "luxurious" too.

While I was looking for a place to grab some lunch, I found a cafe/sandwich bar... It was a weird place because the whole "store" only had one table for everyone to sit in. (There were 2 booths but let's just talk about the main sitting area). I found that quite interesting... It felt like a cafeteria to me... Minus the bad bland food :P. This wasn't what caught my attention though... 

What caught my attention was their lighting display. It was a simple design yet it created an intriguing effect. All the lights seemed to be hanging to different levels and all were of different sizes and shape. Without this lighting the store would be no different from the others but because of this artifact, it has given the store an arty feel making the store stand out among the others!

I'm glad I bumped into this display today :)

Random conversion with friend

Me: I love hk
Friend:... But...?
Me: there's no "but"... I just love hk...
Friend: ... Oh... Usually people who make these statements say something like "I love this... But... <reason preventing me to love this>..."
Me: you are too complicated
