I see. From what I understand MERS outbreak is still contained within SK for now? But HK is on high alert, so means its good that they are starting their prevention measures.

This is the guesthouse I stayed from my last HK trip (which is two weeks ago), I recommend this guesthouse for those who are looking for rooms/stay in HK via Airbnb. The location of this guesthouse is strategic, few minutes walk from MTR Tsim Shah Tsui Exit A1. Very near to Harbour City and China Ferry Terminal too.
You can pm me to get the link to register as Airbnb member, you will get free credit.

Ocean Park!!!
the roller coaster is more adult type, and the animal show is also interesting

Disney is for kids, the only place not so kids is the musical show

same here... it's not famous previously. don't know since when started to boom up. i only knew of this cookies from by colleagues  sweat.gif  after i tried it out, actually just like normal butter biscuits to me  laugh.gif  perhaps due to their marketing strategy and sold out early that cause the hype..

been to cheung chau before.. quite nice. can leisurely stroll around

mayb ur pieces is not airtight sealed
haha whistling.gif

truth is, actually regret intro to u guyz whistling.gif
i would say JB is really overrated x100
it is not so special until u hv to queue 1hrs for it
i dont think it even rank in top10 HK must try food

JB is lucky coz it was blogged by one of the china blogger
hehe in china... as long as someone blog ur site/restaurant/food/junk ur biz is guarantee blooming

all hail to china buying power wink.gif
u jus need 0.0000001% of them to success
