okok.. one more.. mongkok better or tsim sha tsui better? the hotels? for me to go about there like ladies market etc ?

between the two, personally prefer tsimshatsui, more convenient to see places and walk around .... plus my fear factor : the acid pouring from high rise always happen in mongkok

I always recommend The Peninsula, but many people don't agree with me leh

when i book air ticket from singaporeair website, for infant, they ask to choose either \"baby meal\" or \"i will bring my own meal\" either one no extra charges right?

NO extra charge

just that they do have baby meals like those Heinz bottled meals (ready mix), and if your order it, they make sure you are served with priority

some time i an old man also order kid's meal (tired of their standard meal) and you should see the shocked / surprised on their faces --- when I said 'yes, it's me, kid's meal' .... :rotflmao: :rotflmao: they were looking high and low for a kid to be supposedly seated at my seat

but the heinz mushy food where got nice..aiyoo

just to share what i found out. this is given that u confirm going to OCean park on that day. you can book the admission ticket from asiatravel.com instead, it’s cheaper. adult only HKD225 instead of buying at OC itself at HKD 280 and child only HKD 113 instead of HKD 140…

verykiasu2010, i’ve book my tickets via SIA. really no need to fill passport wor… then, they already emailed the e-ticktes to me… should be ok i think. i’ve chosen my seats for departure day flight. the returning’s day flight, i cant book seat ? or how to ?
