Back from Hong Kong!

Hey! I am back!!!
Our plane touched down on Mon almost 12 midnight.. really tired!
I started my trip with my company last Wed and I had to reach the airport by 6am to catch the plane to Hk then to Macau..
Already could feel the flu bug attacking..
It was nice in Macau as we were put up at the newest hotel in MAcau "The Venetian"
It was like WOW when I reached my room.. (look up my facebook for photos ya)
BUt cos its a casino hotel resort.. you can feel the smoke in the air.. and having such a sensitive nose with flu bug. i know that its GONE...
So for the next few days, I went around sneezing and blowing my nose like nobody's business..
Nevertheless, we had fun.. Have not been out for trip with the same gang for quite some time and we enjoyed the time spent together, posing for photos etc..
We went over to Zhu Hai (China) the next day.. We literally walked over as it's like S'pore to JB if not even nearer!
I must say the imitations there are really A class! Bought clothes for the kiddos and many "branded" bags for as cheap as $10 per bag!! OMG!
The next day, we took a ferry back to Hk as we extended our trip.. Ck brought the 2 kiddos over single handedly all by himself!! (BIG ROUND OF APPLAUSE FOR HIM!!)
We went to The peak, Disneyland, OCean park.. and basically just walked around Tsim Sha Shui where we stayed..
I msut say that for this trip, I did not do any shopping except for the time in Zhu Hai, but we spent a great time with the kiddos..
Most of the time were spent in bathing them, jumping on the bed with them, eating with them, taking pictures with them...
Some might feel that its such a waste to do all these things while in HK.. But to me and Ck its really a "luxury" as we don't get to do these stuff consecutively for 4 days!!!
And we made a lot of new discoveries about Ja and Jew..
Felt that Ja has really grown up.. I mean We have been bringing him to Hk almost every year since he was 1 and a hlf yrs old and this time round felt that he is such a big boy now..different responds, different expectations from the trips etc.
Of course since he was not able to sit in a stroller anymore, his energy level went down as there were plenty of walking to do.. So that explains why we missed the night shopping in MongKok areas..
The funny thing was that almost every night, Ja gorgor would be knocked out really fast on the hotel bed.. But Princess Jew would still be full of energy and her daddy would have to bring her down to the HMV nearby to listen to the loud music blasting away before she fell asleep!! And we did that for 3 consecutive nights!!
But one thing for sure, this girl is really more "gang ho" than her bro..
She went on to the horse carousel and the 4D cinema without crying or even showing any tinge of fear! In fact Ja only dared to go into the 4D cinema on this trip!! But Jewjew was already watching the movie intently thruout at just 11 months?! Wow!
Well, this trip is indeed tiring for me and Ck.. in fact i am still coughing now.. but I am so glad we made the trip.. it really bonds us together even closer than before!
BUT BUT BUT I will definitely go back again during sale season..to make up for the lost shopping! Heard the buys will be really fantastic then!!! So who wants to join me for a 3 day 2 night Shopping spree???? Registration is now open! Hmmmm, maybe I should organise one for all the well-deserved hot mamas in the TTFA??!! Sounds GREAT!! Hahaha.. all the daddies please get ready the cash and also the time to take over the kiddos!!!
