Hong Kong 30Dec2014 - 01Jan2015 - Day 2

I love to watch HK drama and always get to see people taking the electric tram -  lots of stuff happen on the tram, such as meeting the eye candy or it is a time to sit on the bus to clear mind, deep in thoughts. Electric tram is one of the icon on Hong Kong Island.

We took the electric tram from Admiralty station to Causeway Bay Station.  The electric tram travelled through the busy street, nice view of the place. We alighted at the tram-stop near the overhead bridge where people “beat small people”,” 打小人”. This is one of the cultures in Hong Kong, where the woman will use a shoe to hit on a piece of piece and scold at the same time to beat away the villain.

On day 2, we are on a mission to hunt for soft-serve ice cream and frozen yogurt. We walked from the overhead bridge to Causeway Bay – Times Square. Let me have lunch before eating the cold stuff.  My crazy friend started off with soft-serve while I am eating my HOT ramen.

The best is Via Tokyo, the matcha taste is rich and strong! My crazy friend ordered 2^nd cup!!!

We went Jardine’s Crescent Street Market, but nothing to buy there.

We went to Island Beverly Center, heard is has Japanese and Korean style. The price was on the high side. At the same time we did not like that mall as the toilet is not open to public. Arghh… I notice in Hong Kong some of the malls the toilets are for tenants only. I don’t understand why toilets in a shopping malls have such restriction. I went a few malls all have same practice. I have to wait for a tenant to unlock the toilet then I followed her in.

The late afternoon after CRUMBS, we went to Argyle Center (688 Nathan Road, Mongkok). This mall is more like our bugis street, where the prices are good. The only bad part is the passageway is pretty narrow and sometimes it is difficult to stop and take a look. My friend bought some earrings, a dress and undergarment. As it is winter season, not much we can buy.
