Love Taken Chances

Chapter 18

Hong Kong

I'm here now in Hong Kong. A busy city.
Once I landed at the airport, I took the overground train directly into the heart of Hong Kong.

Honestly, I didn't know where to go. I'm kinda scared and at the same time thrilled. I don't how to speak chinese, though i love watching chinese drama.
Maybe i can understand the basic term they usually speak as what i have heard and understand everytime I'm watching dramas, but thinking about it made my head aches and I think I'm going crazy.

I am not a fan of a city life. I even hate Manila, surprisingly i was able to adopt. Except ang usok grabe. I will hate it forever.

The hustle and bustle, the  24-hour culture and the twinkling skycrapers all made me dizzy but at the same time  felling excited to finally arrived.

Whenever I arrive in a new city, I always find it best to go on a little walk. I think carry lang kasi konti lang naman ang dala ko. Ken booked me a room at Stanford Hotel. Sabi ko kasi huwag sa mahal basta yong hindi ako mawawala. Pwedeng lakarin lang.

I message Ken first before I will start looking around the City.

Me:
I landed safely. I am here now at the nearest shopping center.

Ken:
Go to your Hotel first before roaming around. Leave your things. Better rest first Bella. We'll fetch you later.

Me:
I'm good. I'll go to the hotel. See You!

Ken:

Be careful. Excited to see you Bella.

I did walk in going to the hotel. It is located near the shopping center of the city.  A nice place to stay. Not a five star but cozy. I tried to rest pero nabobored ako. Ayoko kung magpahinga, aalis ako. Mag lalunch pa lang naman. Kain lang ako sa gilid gilid I guess and  will look for a tourist  destination. The Victoria Peak tama!

I send a message to Ken telling him I'm on my way to Victoria Peak. He was angry at me. Ayaw niyang pumunta ako baka daw mawala ako and thinking nagcocomute ako mas lalo siyang nagalit. Natawa na lang ako, OA niya talaga palibhasa mayaman. Naikwento ko pa sa kanya ang location ng Hotel.

Hindi pala siya ang nagbook kundi ang secretary niya so wala siyang idea sa Hotel ko. Ililipat niya daw ako sa Grand Hyatt Hotel mamaya.  He even said sorry for booking a cheap hotel.Bahala siya basta ako mag eexplore.

I went to Garden Road, Central Hongkong where the railway  of the Peak Tram Funicular is located, I am going to ride a funicular going up to the Victoria Peak. Mas mabilis kaysa  magbabus ako. Makikita ko pa ang palibot ng Victoria Peak. 

I arrived and ate my lunch first. Then I started to explore the whole Victoria Peak. But I love the Peak Circle Walk most, less crowded and peaceful. It shows the magnificent view of Hong kong. Buti na lang pang trail ang get up ko. I am wearing a sleeveless grey crop top and black high waisted jeans paired with a white running shoes. I wore over my top is a knitted cardigan to cover up some skin. I brought a small sling bag for my phone and cards.

My phone is ringing. It was Ken and I answered it.

Ken:
Where are you?

Me:
At Victoria Peak. What I mean is I'm here exactly  at the Peak Circle Walk. Why?

Ken:
We are here. Looking for a parking.
Wait for us there okay? Don't go around anymore. We might lose you.
