The day was started off with a hearty breakfast at Da Jia Le. YY simply loves the fluffy bun served in the breakfast set. While i love the macaroni soup very much, yummy!

Since it was not yet time to start the journey, the bus driver had a short conversation with us in cantonese. He was clever enough to guess the origin country which we are from (is it due to our eccent?).
Then off we go!

Nearly missed the last dolphin show for the day. The pavilion was already crowded with people when we've reached, and have no choice but to stand.

It was a long queue at the Ocean Park bus-stop where everyone was waiting for the special bus, which run directly from the entrance of Ocean Park to the city area. We asked around for assistance and a kind man led us to a bus-stop which was about 20min walk from Ocean Park. And we boarded a public bus which finally brought us back to the city.

We then alighted to change to the tram.

After a hearty meal, we proceed to walk up the longest outdoor escalator in the world record.
