Hong Kong Day 4

The Perfect Date

Listen up guys, if you want to win the heart of my little girl, follow these instructions closely, VERY closely! 

First, you get back on the MTR and go back over to the mainland for the third time in as many days, to walk the Promenade and to find the perfect egg tart. If there is a chicken pie, grab that too.  Now don't get to horribly upset if the Promenade is closed due to new construction, you can always go with plan B...

Plan B... skip the Promenade and find the egg tarts and chicken pies ASAP!  Then find an open bench by pier #3 for Marz to sit and indulge...




Next after walking off all those calories by walking through the biggest conglomeration of make-up stores you have ever seen, you "stumble" upon one of  Marz's favorite restaurants in the whole entire world!  Dan Ryan's!  Her dad would be so jealous!!

Then you feed her again!  This is really why we walk so much...  So Marz can eat to her hearts content... ;)


Even if egg tarts were only two hours ago, don't forget dessert!!  An important fact... if there isn't carrot cake with cream cheese frosting, cheese cake is the next best dessert.  Also, and this is very important!  After two adult beverages, her face gets really red.  So make sure you stop there or else... ;)

Then you take her back to her hotel room and LEAVE HER AT HER DOOR for her to get some rest for the second half of the date. :D

At 6 pm, you go pick her up for the best part of the day... 

More dessert!  This time it will be at a place called Atum.  They use liquid hydrogen to make these pretty fancy desserts.



The Roselle and Bamboo Chocolate were her desserts of choice, but I'm pretty sure you can't go wrong with any one of the choices.


PS... Make sure when you video the liquid hydrogen act, that the video isn't upside down! Really, truly, my phone was not upside down!!! 

Then after dessert number three of the day, you get back out on the street and do more walking to the MTR to catch the train to what she really has been looking forward to all day... The Carnival!


Now, if you are really smart, I would find a carnival with this particular ride.  She says it's her favorite!



This one was just a quick little fun roller coaster, but if you really want to please her heart, you will find her a bigger, much bigger one!

And then find the two most "freaky" rides in the park...



If you can handle this insanity and not puke, you probably have a good chance at winning her heart.  Me on the other hand, you could not give me a BILLION bucks to do this!!  



And that's the simple way on how to win the heart of my beautiful Marz!  Good Luck!! :)



With that, this concludes our four days in Hong Kong and my self induced FB media fast!  Tomorrow morning, bright and early, we head to the airport and go our separate ways.  Marz back to school in the US, and me, finally home to Tembagapura.

Hong Kong, you have been great!!  You were not as scary as I thought you would be and were definitely way more fun than I could have imagined!

I leave you all with this thought, probably the most important thing I saw in all of HKG...

Fortunately for me, I know I am, as is everyone, truly loved by the creator of all those dots! ;)
