Tired, Bored And Freezing

Trying to sleep at Suvarnabhumi International Airport @ Bangkok. Five hours left until next flight.

Disneyland

Tired of malls and shopping we had three options today - stay at the hostel, go to Ocean Park, or go to Disneyland. To stay at the hostel was not really an option. Ocean Park might have some new rides but we've been there before. Disneyland is smaller than Ocean Park and doesn't have many thrilling rides but since we've never been there before we decided to go there.

Disneyland is located on Lantau Island so we had to take a 40 minutes MTR ride to get there.

Disneyland is quite small and is divided into four parts - Main Street USA, Adventureland, Fantasyland, and Tomorrowland. Each with its own theme. It's worth a visit.

We will be heading back to Sweden tomorrow so we have to plan how to pack our suitcases the best ways tonight. Maybe there will be some time left for me to buy a karaoke machine. ;)

Po Lin Buddha

Today we went to Lantau Island to see the majestic Po Lin Buddha, who's sitting on top of a hill (more than 250 steps up) facing south. Inside the Buddha is a white (aka bone) relic. We learned that there are three kinds of relics - white (bone), black (hair), and red (flesh).

Anita Mui (may she rest in peace) rests inside the Buddha statue.

We had vegetarian food at the monastery. We got a lot of food and it tastes good.

Lantau Island offers a scenic nature and is a beautiful contrast to the noisy and smelly concrete inner city of Hong Kong.

Heavy?!

OK, the suitcase feels a little heavy, but I swear, there is almost nothing in it. I can't understand they put the heavy tag with written "30 kg" on it. That means 6 days in Hong Kong with no shopping for me!!

Anyway, we have just landed in Hong Kong. We and Stefan went separate ways this morning without a chance to say good-bye to each other. We went to the airport together but we had to take different immigrations due to different gates. Our immigration was slow and overloaded so we had to run to get our VAT refund immediately after the immigration. And then we ran to our gate only to find out that they had to change both gate and aircraft. 50 minutes delayed and then we were finally up in the sky.

Temple Hopping

On our last day in Bangkok we went temple hopping. We went to Wat Pra Kaew (Emerald Buddha), Grand Palace, and Wat Po (Reclining Buddha). Visitors were asked to pay respect to Buddha by wearing garments that cover the body, i.e., no mini skirts, no see-through, no shorts. T-shirts and sandals were allowed though. In Wat Pra Kaew and Grand Palace we had to borrow long pants and sarongs respectively.

Hungry Ngo Family Is Invading Bangkok

Stefan, aka "I'm always in Bangkok", has joined us now. Here we are eating at Big-C.

Tomorrow will be our last day in Thailand. Early morning the day after tomorrow we will leave Bangkok for Hong Kong.
