[Photo Diary] Hongkong Getaway Day 5: Ocean Park

Day 5. We had our breakfast in McDonald's. Yea right! Seemed like we've had enough of Hongkong noodles! I tried the "burger" macaroni soup - this version does not have milk on it. And the egg topping is prepared sunny side up. Interesting huh! 

We bought our tickets from the hotel we're staying in. It's cheaper than buying from Ocean Park entrance (or online).

We're heading to the Thrill Mountain! Mehn, the roller coaster is just beside the cliff. It's like the riders will be thrown off to the sea!!! I told myself, I will never try this one!

Hello Sam! Sarap buhay ka d'yan ah! We rented this stroller near at the entrance of Ocean Park. Good thing, strollers are also allowed to ride the cable car.

Here's the roller coaster which is just sitting near the cliff, dangling off the guests. The other 3 girls, my sister-in-law and nieces, who have braver hearts went ahead! Me? No. I don't want to commit suicide. I know, I'm KJ. LOL. 
Eto ngayon, wait na lang sa kanila. Boring!
Sam dozed off so I followed them. And while Mommy's away, Sam woke up and made Lola ran after him.

This is the Ocean Park Tower - one of the tallest observation towers in Southeast Asia. Rises 200 metres above sea level with a rotating observation deck at the top offering 360° views of the South China Sea. We never had the chance to ride it. The long queue is just crazy.

Our last ride - "mine train" roller coaster suspended on the edge of a cliff! Just like the Hair Raiser roller coaster. But a li'l bit "milder". I regret that I didn't try the Hair Raiser. T_T
