The Ultimate Peak Experience
The weather wasn't great at this time. It was raining in Tung Chung when we left. We beat the rain to the MTR station and thanks to God we've reached the place before it eventually caught up to us. Anyway, later we decided to go to the Peak Tram which was pretty interesting. By then the rain had stopped and it was really nice though not sunny at all.
On our way heading to The Peak Tram Station located at Central's Garden Road St. Joseph Building, we walked pass these two iconic buildings namely the Bank of China Tower and the Cheung Kong Center , incredibly stunning!
At last, we've reached the Peak Tram station by just merely walking. It's just a short distance from the MTR station but quiet tiring for our legs since it's a highland I was like climbing on a mountain, huh!
While waiting for our turn to ride the tram, I took a couple of pictures around the vicinity.

A spectacular view from inside the tram while ascending the mountain.
Soon our tram arrived and we boarded. Yay! Finally we've reached the top and it was really chilling up there! I'm with my husband and I keep on laughing at him. He hold me too tight hmmmmmmmmm.....love it! :D Don't think maliciously hahaha! He's a height phobic man. I have some photos of him in the sky terrace but he asked me not to post it here...hehehe :D
Same experience in Ngong Ping Village, it was also foggy up here in the Peak Sky Terrace. Bad timing I guess. These would be our best shot, Victoria Harbour as well as the Southern Districts of Hong Kong Island. Buildings could merely be seen under such foggy condition.
Anyway, it must have been a successful day because my legs are pretty tired. And for sure, my companions felt the same way too especially my mom. But happy to see her smiles in this picture with one of the wax works in the Maddame Taussaud's Museum.

Quick Getaway with Mom at Manleluag Spring National Park
I rarely get to spend quality one-on-one time with my mom because of my busy schedules and an ocean away from her since I'm working abroad, but we managed to take time off for a much needed mother-daughter bonding time recently at Manleluag Spring National Park, Mangatarem Pangasinan. Two swimming pools of this protected landscape are filled with warm, mountain water that was really soothing to the nerves and soul. So I think Mom would love it! Happy to see her smile that day with all the gorgeous snaps ;) Look Up style according to Mom. :D :D :D We were both really refreshed and rejuvenated after the short dip at the pool, and so glad for the precious time there together! Gonna make it a point to bring her back more often ;) Afterwhich, because we were really close by, we decided to drop by to my mother - in - law's place for a quick snacks and to witnessed the birthday celebration of my husband's niece. Party!!! Party!!! Party!!!
Singapore's Stunning Sculptures
On our way out to the Singapore Botanical Garden, attractions never ends. The views are very amazing which made us to take more photos before it rain. Spotted many freestanding sculptures which adds life and humour to the site's natural grace. FREDERICK CHOPIN, the most eminent Polish composer Overlooking to this was the Shaw Foundation Symphony Stage, where music enthusiasts regularly gathers there for some orchestral performances. Girl on a Bicycle Girl on a Swing, sculptured by Sydney Harpley, R.A The exuberant "Swing Me Mama" The Swiss Granite Fountain There are more delighted artworks but it seems the rain can't no longer wait for us and so we spent the hours back again in the Botany Centre while waiting for the rain to stop. Spotted different styles of Christmas tree and decors. The Clock Tower of Singapore, a gift from the Patron Lady Yuen - Peng McNeice, December 1998. Christmas spirit is on the air. I was surprised only few people visit this place c
Hotel Lisboa Stopover
It's been a month ago before I have shared to you this - my travel experiences in Macau last 29th of June with my family. Sorry about that guys. I've been pretty busy preparing my students for their upcoming Cambridge examination in Chemistry this October/November. I was assigned to trained them well for their Paper 1, 3 and 5 skills area. Lots of my surprise, all of them were taking my subject and had dropped other subjects like Biology. Well, pretty impressive but hope to God to bless all our hard works and preparations for this examination and get more A* compared to last year...:) Time for break....So thankful for this 12 - day refreshing break. I've got ample time to unload myself for all the paper works, to unwind and also to update my blogs :) As I go along, I'll share with you all the free rides we had experienced in Macau. Try it on your next visit in Macau....it's fun! ************************************************************************************
