Hi, may alam ba kayong mabibilhan ng ticket sa disney na makakakuha kami ng discount?

Hello! Ask ko lang sa mga nakatry na magcebu pacific air flight from HK to manila ng 9:55 pm (arrival 11:55 pm), past midnight na ba ang arrival sa manila and stamp sa immigration is the following date na? Thanks 

[catwoman]

Excited na mga bata, bukas na alis namin papuntang HK. Ok lang bang magdala ng mga over the counter meds like these :

Biogesic ( for pains/ headache), Kremil- S (hyperacidity), Diatabs (LBM), Buscopan (stomachache) plus yung mga maintenance na high blood pressure ni mom. Di ba kami matatanong sa HK immigration?

[cindylulu]

^i brought plenty of OTC meds too and the hk customs didn't ask naman when the luggages passed thru the X-ray machine.

[catwoman]

Ok thanks sis...Nilagay ko nga sa ziplock para at least declared sya.

[rocky]

^^basta may labels ok lang yan

How many weeks early do u need to book at golden crown?

[rocky]

^kahit 3 months sis try mo, kasi pag weeks baka fully booked na

[sassy_taurus8]

Just got home from HK yesterday, 4 days and 3 nights. Maulan na mainit ang weather 😁, we stayed at Yui Fai guest house. Suggestion lang mga sis, if you really want to stay at golden crown book months ahead like 4 or 5 mons earlier than your scheduled trip. Though parang iisa lang naman yata may ari ng Yui Fai and GC, cheaper sa GC hindi pa nagkakalayo mga room sizes nila and almost the same ang itsura ng mga rooms. Fully booked na kase sa GC kaya we settled na lang sa Yui Fai.

Hindi nasunod yung itenerary namin(me, my 13 yr old daughter and my brother) bec. of the unpredictable weather kaya we skipped the Ngong Ping due to heavy rains on our first day. Kaasar😁, we strolled along the city na lang during the afternoon til evening.

On the second day, we had a lunch date with my aunt then around 12pm we headed to Macau. Macau is beautiful especially in the evening😉, we hired a Filipino tourist guide for the price of 100HK$ per tourist so 300 na yun. For me, sulit yung Macau trip namin especially the weather on that day was perfectly fine. Sabihin nyo lang sa tour guide nyo kung ano yung gusto nyong unahing puntahan and ihuli then sila na ang bahala. We bought some stuff and pasalubong. We left Macau at 9pm.

Third day, at around 9:30am nasa DL na kami and the weather was irritating, LOLs! Umuulan kahit tirik ang araw. 😪 Hindi namin na enjoy yung DL bec. of the weather, mga kasama ko mga nakasimangot na habang naglalakad, hahaha! Half day lang kami dun, gusto ko pa sanang mag stay until afternoon man lang kase yung parade talaga ang habol ko which will be starting at 3:30 pm pa. So tip lang mga sis, check their website first before heading there for the schedule of parades and events/shows. 7pm, we went to a night market in Mongkok, wala rin kami masyadong nabili, no good finds, kase iisa lang yung design nung mga shirts and my brother doesnt want to buy the "I love Hong Kong" shirts coz its too generic daw, LOL!😅

Fourth day - flight going back to Manila na.

If I'll be asked kung babalik ako, definitely!  Hopefully with hubby and bunso na next time of course with my eldest din. I want the DL 2 day pass😄, hindi ako maka get over sa disney na yan, haha! At least alam ko na which attractions to visit especially if you have a 4 or 5 yr old kid with you and the convenient options for transpos. 😉

[rocky]

^sayang sis, 2nd day na lang pala sana DL nyo para na-enjoy nyo. ako nga nakailang DL na pero gusto ko pa ring bumalik. hehe, iba yong magic

[chelsee]

from airport going to golden crown.. A21 bus then pano malalaman san ka nila ibababa? anytime pwede mag stop yung bus?

[Heatherette]

^May bus stop lahat ng lugar dun. Hindi tulad sa atin na hihinto kahit saan. Basta hanapin mo yung Standard Chartered, andyan yan si Golden Crown.

[cindylulu]

^^ika 13th bus stop sis. the bus stop is in front of golden crown building mismo. there's an LCD monitor sa loob ng bus informing the passengers kung pang ilang stop na. be alert and mindful na lang. golden crown is in between standard chartered bank and lukfook jewellery.

[winky]

[rocky]

[winky]

^labas na ang plane ticket dyan since meron na kami last year pa. as in pocket money for food,  hotel and gala (disney, ocean park, etc) lang talaga. malaki na 30k?
