2 June (Sun) Getting Ready

First thing in mind was to prepare transport arrangement - what I meant was MTR. Its network is pretty comprehensive and the map is easy to navigate and plan. I had the “old” Octopus cards but decided not to use them because it required activation (HKD50) before topping it up with whichever amount I plan to use. However, the key is…. The top-up has to be in CASH! Ops… that’s easy to decide - opt for the single day TOURIST card that cost HKD60 each - for unlimited travel.

One advantage of staying near Tung Chung station is, it’s the terminal station - it makes planning quite straightforward, though it took time to travel out to the main islands. It took almost 30 min to travel out from Tung Chung to Lai King, the first station in the Kowloon island. 

Another important thing to do is to re-familiarise myself with the route from the hotel to the MTR station, also what are some shops around.
