Sunday Adventures

Not so long ago, Saturdays and Sundays meant sleeping the whole day or at least a bit of shopping and then partying at night. Well, now that time with baby is only on these two days, I have to make sure we do something nice with her. And since I am trying to curb my spending habits, maybe it's a good idea to not go to the malls at the moment. Otherwise, I will be bringing up another shopaholic in the family. I thought going to an amusement park or go for some outdoor activity. I am not so keen on Disneyland and Ocean Park so am thinking of planning a trip to the following places:

Hong Kong Wetland Park, Tin Shui Wai. It's a bit of a journey to get there but because of lack of nice parks in Hong Kong, I think I am willing to go as far as I can just to show my daughter some greens and hopefully, some animals. I hope I find the energy to go there inspite of the heat. I'm a bit paranoid about the mosquitoes there though, so if ever we go, I'd have to bring some California Baby action.



Noah's Ark, Ma Wan. I know this would be a failed attempt to imitate the real Noah's Ark (if there was one) but I should give the Chinese A for Effort. My first question is what kind of animals are in there. Okay, I just read they are hand-sculptured so I guess no real ones there. I'm surprised that they even have hotel rooms. I know they are nowhere near the Peninsula's but pretty neat huh? I have to say that I know of noone who has stayed there yet so that says something. Haha! Too bad, I have to take the ferry to get there (I don't really like boats cause I get seasick) so will postpone the trip to this place as much as I can. In the meantime, maybe I should just get my daughter a book on Noah's Ark instead.



See, Hong Kong is not exactly all about shopping. Saying that though, I'm tempted to just go to the mall cause of the hot weather...
