Seminyak, Bali DAY 1-3


Hi! Ray and I went to Bali for honeymoon. We stayed at a pool villa called One Eleven, and it was pretty amazing...


My first time staying at a private pool villa :D


The reason why we chose this villa was because of its modern design and private, relaxing atmosphere.


This is the bathroom inside next to the bedroom. The staff gave us toiletries like shampoo, sunblock, mosquito repellents, etc. They even filled the bathtub with roses on our arrival :)


Every day a chef came in and cooked us breakfast :)



The staff also gave us a cake every day... yummy





Overall the food was very delicious and fruits fresh. If you want more fruit, try the snakeskin fruit, dragon fruit and guava at a local supermarket.



Ray enjoying his private pool :D



Seminyak is a tourist area, so you can walk into any store and speak English. The pizza below was at a restaurant called Rumour.




One Eleven remembered Ray's birthday and prepared us dinner.


Very romantic <3





Also visited this fancy bar called La Sicilia.




The music was pretty good. We were only there for less than an hour, but still enjoyed it.

Hong Kong DAY 3 - Ngong Ping Cable Car and A Symphony of Lights

On the third day Ray and I went to the famous Ngong Ping Cable car. It's right by the Tung Chung station. Some strange guy was selling black tickets and there were some pictures of suffering people in the Fa Lun Palace. We almost bought them because the deal was good, but we resisted the urge. I think the guy disappeared when we came back from the mountain top.


We took the crystal car so the bottom was transparent! A bit scary at first...hehe




Streams could be seen here and there.



After about 20 min, we saw the Buddha monument from afar.




Yay, we're finally here!


It was a very hot day -- probably above 30 degrees-- but there were a lot of tourists.





Enjoy the view of Ngong Ping village :)




Small fried dim sum


There were some cattle frolicking in the village and in the mountains.




We came back home and decided to get the famous 'Under The Bridge Crab'. It was pretty good.


Honestly, I am not very satisfied when HK restaurants charge customers for tea and peanuts when we don't want them(the waitor boldly said 'Eat peanuts or not, we charge you anyway').


We also made it this time to A Symphony of Lights from Tsim Sha Tsui. The decks were full of tourists!




If you want to shop clothes and shoes, you should go upward to Mong Kok and look -- the stores have cheap brand sneakers for a specific size.


That's it for Hong Kong. Thanks for reading!
