Another day of riding train. After having a buffet breakfast, took our luggage and checked out the hotel. Then, called cab and went to the train station. It took us also one hour journey to Hong Kong. But, this train looks more like a LRT. Luckily we're faster a little than the others, if not we won't even have a place to seat.

The so-called-train.

The bright sun view.

When we've arrived at Hong Kong, called cab and went to check in to Island Pacific Hotel. The room's view was splendid as it was facing the blue sea. But it's quite spacius though. Had lunch at a few blocks away. Then, took LRT - cable car up to Ngong Ping 360.

Blue sea view from hotel.

Since the place is up at the top of the mountain, well I don't need to say. I got trembling and freezing again. But luckily I'm still alive right now, haha. After we got off from the cable car, we still need to walk 256 steps. Wow, I managed to do that. It's definately worth it, because the view was beautiful as that time was sunset.

By 6 something, we walked back down and got ready to ride the cable car again. The line was so long, everyone was q-ing to get back. We waited about 1 hour only managed to sit with 2 americans. Chatted with them while going back to the mainland. They are very, friendly.

Had dinner immediately after arriving at the mainland. Can't help it, stomach growling again, lol. But guess what? We waited another one hour for the restaurant, crowded! After the dinner, went back hotel. Watch CJ 7 from Jade Channel, hehe. Then, got ready for tomorrow's trip at Ocean Park! yeah.
