^laging fully booked ang GC. kaya mas maaga mas ok, kung tumatanggap na sila ng booking ngayon for january much better sis.

[pampam2]

^ naka 2 try na akong mag book sa Golden Crown for March reply is always fully booked but I think hindi pa ata sila accept ng reservation for next year.

Mga Sis ok lang ba ITI ko sa taas?

[sonia62]

^sis di pa open reservation nila ng march. Usually mga 3 months before ng travel date.

@pampam2

okay na yang iti niyo but have a plan b. sa first day kasi, baka puyat pa daughter niyo then pasyal agad. baka lalong di niyo ma enjoy ang hk.

[cest.la.vie]

Hi sis cest.la.vie, you mean I can buy online sa coach factory outlet, na try mo na ba yun?  Saka magkano yung shipping cost if ever... thanks!

Asang asa panaman akong meron akong mabibili na bongga at mura sa hehe

unfortunately sis yung outlet site nila for US shipping lang. if you know someone from US, or kahit sang ibang bansa na may outlet store pabili ka na lang hehe.

^^ 3 days lang kasi kami so hectic talaga siya tapos may OP pa kami. Unahin ko Disney kasi mas malapit sya HKIA. Ayaw ko naman any of these 2 ang nasa last day baka lalong 'di namin ma enjoy dahil pressure sa oras at baka maiwan ng eroplano hehe.

But I'm also considering OP on our last day, ok lang kaya? Mga what time naman kaya kami alis ng OP if our flight is 8:45pm? Tapos second day Disney.

We have roundtrip tickets na, next is Guesthouse. 

[glacy_rein]

Hi mga sis. May iba pa bang masuggest bukod sa golden crown?

Thanks!

[london]

@pampam2

parang sobrang bitin na if mag o OP kayo sa last day. ako kasi i want to be at the airport at least 3hours before the flight kasi malaki din HKIA then ang daming tao lagi sa immigration. then factor niyo pa yung travel time from OP to your guesthouse para kunin yung luggage niyo (unless dala dala niyo na to sa OP), then yung pag-abang pa ng bus.

plan b is either disney or OP lang kayo. consider kasi na may kasama kayong bata and di natin alam ano "mood" niya during that time.

^sis, panoorin nyo yong fireworks ng disneyland kasi sobrang sulit. suggest ko rin na pwedeng mag-peak & wax museum na lang kayo kesa mag-SOL

[lheimatte]

I'm torn! Kasi I have a confirmed booking na sa gateway marco polo and also sa t hotel, I got the marco polo cheaper than t hotel. Pero nahihinayang naman ako na hinde namin matry yung t hotel sobrang ganda kasi ng review sa kanya sa tripadvisor. Pero parang hassle naman kung we stay in t hotel ng 2N tapos travel to kowloon para 2N sa Gateway. Hay confuse na ko, need ko to decide, if location wise alam ko na mas bongga yung gateway at mas mura pa sa T hotel. Any suggestion naman mga sis. Thanks!

[rinrin]

Sissies ang ferry ba hindi available ng friday?

[jellygall]

@rocky-- thanks sis! yes we plan on watching the fireworks, I've heard na nice daw talaga I think lang yung schedule ng Disney on that day 10:30-7:30 yata, based on their website.
hindi worth it panoorin yung symphony of lights?

[rocky]

^hindi na sis, kasi hindi lahat ng building kasali sa SOL kaya hindi sya ganon kabongga. badtrip nga ako non kasi from the peak, hinabol talaga namin yong 8:00 para sa SOL tapos pagdating don yon lang yon. hehe! umaga na lang kayo pumunta para maganda pic nyo sa avenue of stars

[prettybarbie]

rinrin....sailing everyday

[jellygall]

@rocky, thanks for the tip sis!:) that was my original plan nga rin, habulin yung 8pm SOL show after the peak, buti nalang you warned me na hindi worth it. hehe! I heard kasi mahaba yung line sa tram, so baka maipit talaga yung time. thank you!:) I'll take your advise, move ko nalang avenue of the stars sa morning thank you!!!

[gcarrie]

hi!
how much exchange rate usd to hkd ngayon sa hk? we'll be there this friday. parang natataasan ako sa rate if i buy hkd dito sa atin...
thanks!

Fully booked na ang golden crown on jan 17-21. Waaaa! Peak season ba ito talaga?

[theflygirl]

Looking forward to the Haunted Halloween features of Disney. Too bad the weather's still warm. I just hope it won't be raining next weekend. I'm glad the park will be open till 11pm. No need for additional payment for those holding 2day tickets to be there for the extended night opening. I just noticed the rates for the Hollywood Hotel park view room became less than the seaview room when before it was the most expensive type. It wasn't worth it to get it before actually cos all you see is a minute view of the fireworks display. Too bad the rooms we wanted at Disneyland Hotel are fully booked on Sunday.
