I have some advice: DO GO TO OCEAN PARK IN THE MORNING, BECAUSE IT WON&rsquo;T BE TOO CROWDED. Get onto the cable car immediately to the hilltop. I suggest you visit the Sea Jelly Spectacular at first. You can watch the amazing jellyfish dancing around each other in the tank. <\/p>\n<p>WARNING! Stick like a magnet to your parents, because the whole room is designed with mirrors. You never know which way to go as it&rsquo;s too dark. The reflections from the mirror will cause an illusion which makes you cry. Just think about the painful sensation when bumping into a solid wall!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;Besides, I suggest you visit the Atoll Reef. There are thousands of fish swimming in a huge tank. Blowfish, sharks, sea turtles&hellip;they aren&rsquo;t shy, because they are thrilled to be photographed. Just remember, no flashlights in the aquarium. Also you can watch as many shows as you like.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;On Saturday, I&rsquo;ll meet you in the lobby of your hotel at 8:00a.m. Then we&rsquo;ll take the Peak tram to the Peak. Over there you can go sightseeing for a while. Then we&rsquo;ll go to a candy shop to have some tricky sweets. The most famous one is the Every-flavour Beans. It&rsquo;s a pity that the inventor hasn&rsquo;t get many flavours. Just about 30 weird flavours: bacon, marshmallow, egg, soap, sardine, pepper&hellip; and don&rsquo;t touch the orange bean with red marks. Its flavour is VOMIT, whish really makes you VOMIT!<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;Around 12 pm, we&rsquo;ll travel to Mongkok by MTR. We&rsquo;ll have lunch there in a Chinese restaurant. It&rsquo;s cheap but it has the quality of a five-star hotel. But I won&rsquo;t order much food as we&rsquo;re going to enjoy the food invented in Hong Kong. We&rsquo;ll have a large cup of bubble tea bought in the street, and fish balls, squid, cuttlefish, and a large block of stale bean-curd&#8212;don&rsquo;t worry, it&rsquo;s eatable and fantastic! You must dip it into the seafood sauce and enjoy the marvelous feeling&hellip;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;Well, take care. I&rsquo;m looking forward to your arrival.<br \/>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Best wishes,<br \/>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Chris<br \/>P.S. Bring a few plastic bags incase you throw up after the ride in Ocean Park.
