back to hongkong airport to take the 10pm flight back to manila..



i was so tired, every part of my body was sore...i almost slept the entire flight back except for those times when my american NFF charlie was talking to me, he actually told me i was snoring...i hope he's just kidding...ha ha ha

early sept 16 is my scheduled flight back to manila, but ofcourse i have to stop by hongkong. originally i created a 12hr stop over in hongkong from 10am to 10pm, but my evil plan didnt go as scheduled because my flight from pudong to hk was delayed by an hour. we have to wait, then transfer from dragon air to eastern airline...geez i was kindda looking forward to the breakfast that dragon air serves (they always serve good food)...at least its good for my diet...i get to eat less.

hongkong is busy as always...this time around i decided to spend the day walking and literally that's what i did.

shanghai and hongkong sept 12-16 part 2

i just love my hotel room, queen size bed, bay window, and a view of the river


here is a miniature of pudong shangrila, my room is on the 10th flr of the left building


what's great about the shang is that its right next to the tv tower, superbrand mall, jinmao building and mtr lu jia zui station.






as soon as i reached the hotel, i just dropped my bags and headed off to buy an mp4 player and wireless mouse at digital plaza.

i was so happy not because i got a good bargain but because my mandarin is improving...wo juede hen gao xing! anyway back to the stuff i bought..i got 4 logitech wireless mouse for 240RMB each and a 1 Gig Mp4 player at 280RMB..wo zhende hen hao! how did i do that? first i bought the 4WM on one store and then i asked the owner of the store to look for an mp4 player and buy it for me at the price and specs i specified. since they cant speak english...it was really a challenge on my mandarin...ha ha ha...in the end..i got what i want..and that what counts.

my flight was scheduled early morning of sept 12, 645am ...its the first flight out to HK via cathay ..i intentionally scheduled it that way so that ill be in shanghai around 2pm.
