Some pictures onboard: 
Mummy roped in Alice jie jie to help us for the day....
It was a MAD RUSH...
Mummy was functioning faster than bullet trains in Japan!
1st stop, to SIR building to collect mei mei's passport.
Alright, the same old predictable systematic Singapore system....
Qing, Get Q number, WAIT....
This was where mummy got HIT by reality....
she thought to herself
"SHIT! It's not as simple as just collect passport then run.....
STILL got 40 over numbers then my turn....
Jia lat!! Cannot make it for flight!!
Damn!"
Mummy approach the officer
to tell her that our flight is due for checking in an hour time....
and to WAIT and WAIT and WAIT
for 40 numbers to pass
is NOT AN OPTION!!
Only to be reply with a straight face,
you got to go Q, take Q number and see officer for interview,
then officer can decide if we can release your passport earlier....
Duhz! Mummy did as she was told....
Officer agreed to once again

Auntie Angelina met us at HongKong airport.....
We stayed with Auntie Angelina
until papa arrived in HongKong, on 19.01.08
Since Auntie Angelina stays in ShenZhen; Sha Tao Kok,
we have to take a long long car ride to her place.
And to those people who thought that
ShenZhen is a cowboy town....
You are COMPLETELY WRONG!!
It is even safer than JB!!
Police petrol booths were seen along the streets.....
making us feel really safe!
After dumping our stuffs at Auntie Angelina's place,
we went out to hunt for food.
This french restaurant is so worth our every cent!!
At 64rmb, which is about 11 Sin,
We had Fresh bread (with galic butter and basil olive),
Salad, Soup, Main Course and Desert!!
Not to mention,
service is EXCELLENT!!

Weather is SUPER COLD today.
Stayed at home the whole day.
Had lunch at the same french restaurant...
Had dinner with Auntie Angelina and her work mates
at a chinese restaurant....
We ate like gluttons...
the bill came up to 300rmb for 5 hungry adults.
Which is only 50 Sin....
so CHEAP!!
18.01.08:
Mummy took us across the border to HongKong.
30rmb, which is 10 Sin was for the fare of the bus ride,
from ShenZhen; Sha Tou Kok to HongKong; Kowlong Tong.
We ate lunch,
shopped around at festive walk...
Then took a bus back to ShenShen; Sha Tou Kok.
19.01.08:
Auntie Angelina is OFF today....
So, she is coming along with us to meet papa at Kowloon Hotel.
We had lunch at Red Ant.
Fabulous food at reasonable price!!

So, the rest of us has no choice but to tag along!!
We took the star ferry to get across to HongKong Island
This is the 1st time I am on a FERRY!!

Then it was a LONG bus ride...
with beautiful sencery of expensive houses....
We even rode pass Ocean Park on the bus!!
Mummy had a great time shopping at stanley Market...
