Ashley dropped her sixth tooth today during dinner time. She put it on a piece of tissue paper and unknowingly, Aunty cleared the tissue together with her tooth. Ah, she had a melt-down when she realized that the tooth was gone! She was so upset as tooth fairy will not come if there is no tooth under her pillow. I had to promise that I will dig ( Read more... )

It's Wednesday and I took the opportunity to go to the History Museum again. This time I went up to the second floor. The second floor mainly depict the first and second Opium War, Japanese Occupation and subsequent surrender, Hong Kong under the British rule right up to the handover of Hong Kong to China in 1997 ( Read more... )

I went to the History Museum for the first time last Wednesday. I chose Wednesday as I know it's free admission. The history shown in this museum dates back to millions of years ago, in fact, there are so much information that I find it a little over-whelming. I did not even venture beyond basement 1 -- "The Hong Kong Story" . Think I will have ( Read more... )

Having seen and heard the wonderful performance by the Main Wayang Singers yesterday, I am pretty intrigued by all the Peranakan songs and decided to look up for them.  Many of the songs have beautiful lyrics and very catchy tunes ( Read more... )

Last evening, I did my first hike since I came back to Hong Kong. In fact, we had not been doing very much since our return on Friday and I was feeling rather restless. I was too lazy to hit the gym, too lazy to go for a swim. I ended up signing for this group night hike from IFC to the Peak. I thought it would be good for me to know the city a ( Read more... )

We caught an early morning show, Mission Impossible 5 - Rouge Nation. Just like the other MI show, the suspend kept us glued to the screen for the entire 2 hours. The setting took us from London to Cuba to Vienna to Morocco. The female lead actress, Rebecca Ferguson, is very attractive too ( Read more... )
