Hi!  Mga sis, sa tingin niyo mag eenjoy ba yung 3 yr old daughter ko sa ocean park? As early as now i'm working on our hk trip iti for next yr. i'm having 2nd thoughts lang if i am going to include ocean park or hindi muna. Maybe pag medyo mas malaki na siya? I have been to ocean park twice but hindi kami nagrides eh. More on shows and sight seeing lang. I love the panda village and sea lion show.  what other shows and rides na puwede sa 3 yr old toddler? Thanks

[pampam2]

hello po! mga sis is it ok to visit hongkong during holy week? and open po ba yong mga tourist spot? We're planning to visit sana next year gusto ko sana 4days 3 night kaya lang holy week lang available si hubby. ok din po ba weather ng March? thanks po in advance sa mag re-reply

[gorgeous_me]

hi, worth it bang bumili ng meal coupon sa disneyland, or magbaon na lang kami ng snacks, haha, mga pulubi, LOL

[rocky]

^ok lang naman sis na magbaon kayo lalo na water kasi uber mahal don, di naman sila gaanong mahigpit.

[gorgeous_me]

ayan, buti na lang, pwede, hehe, baka yung ice cream lang mabili namin don, LOL, and may water refill naman don di ba, hanapin na lang namin...tnx rocky

[prettynvain]

Re taxi, now ko lang nakita replies nyo sissies, actually kami lang po Walang baggage or anything, wala ren naman kaming dinaan na bridge na may bayad. Kasi Yung kasama namen 20 lang siningil pro samen 30 same path lang.

Mainit here super, nakaka 3 akong towels palit at patuyo sa HKDisney at OceanPark. Saan mas cheap bumili ng bubble hair color? Sa Mannings or Watson? Usually sino ang mas mura sa kanila?

Mega culture shock ako dito ah. Marami akong Chinese friends pro dito Grabe, kakaiba sila. IMO may pagka-rude sila. Mangilan ngilan lang ang courteous. Sabi ni hubby mas magalang kausap ang HK residents kesa yung sa galing mainland.

[rocky]

^korek! walang paki yang mga chekwa, minsan parang sisigawan ka pa.

[prettynvain]

^^agree! wala talagang manners mga taga-mainland china. sa mga HK peeps naman, minsan talaga ganun lang sila magsalita, malakas boses or kala mo nag-aaway. bonjour ka bumili ng bubble hair color. it's around hkd50-60 depende kase sa brand sis.

[kidsrepublik]

Ok thank you. I searched sa net may Bonjour sa Mirador mansion, lapit lang GC. OT lang, anong masusuggest nyo na brand na bubble hair color? 

FYI pala, sarado na ang Wing Hoi money changer sa Mirador Mansion. Gusto ko sana picturan Yung nakasulat pro it's like- We are now enjoying our retirement, blah blah blah... Then ayun lahat ng shop name may cover, tinakpan na. I think it's no longer in operation kasi mung pumunta kami ng Sun, it was closed pala, Wala naman cover ng Appel Yung shop name, but this time covered lahat. Hope it helps sa mga next magtravel.

Money exchange on Monday was 1USD = 7.74HKD (Wing Hoi)
nagpapalit kami sa ibang money changer this morning, Pinakamataas nanakita ko is 7.71HKD na Lang 

[karli_girl]

Pagdating ko po ba ng macau port, how do i get to the bus na may free tour? Yung bus na umiikot sa mga hotels? Do they accept hkd in macau or do i need to exchange pa? Hehe dami kong tanong. Never been to macau kasi... I wasnt able to join my mom in macau dati kasi nagkasakit ako sa hk. Kung minamalas nga lang!

Just finished backreading this thread (27). Sa september naman kami and planning to stay at Golden Crown din. Thanks to you sises at may idea na ako sa itinerary namin.

Super helpful ka sis rocky!

I'll check out websites muna that were mentioned here, and rates.

[prettynvain]

^^ they accept hkd in macau sis. paglabas mo ng port/immigration bale tawid ka sa kabilang side (by underground subway) tapes may mga buses na dun depends kung among hotel gusto mo unahin.

[sonia62]

mga sis confirm ko lang sa inyo, pwede na talaga magbaon ng food and water sa disneyland? nung nagpunta kasi kami before medyo bago pa disneyland eh bawal kahit water as in chinecheck isa isa ang bag. so ngayon pala pwede na? we plan to go back kasi sa disneyland
