A day travelling in time

22/4/09(wed)
went to the hong kong railway museum near Tai Wo mtr.




look for Mcdonald when u are out of the shopping centre, then turn right and follow the road. it will bring u to a river & u will see this bridge.



This temple was constructed in 1892.







The inside of the train is very spacious.





wet market, a place where i love to go and feel the vibrant local lives.


she was podering over the lost of youth, while trying to earn her livelihood.








The fallen star.


Forget the past, look forward.




I can't stop wondering, how many people sat on this seat, while waiting for their love one to return?



Was this the end of the journey, or just the beinning of my life?



next to the Ladies treet at Mong Kok mtr, u can find this street selling fishes/pets.




twinkle twinkle little stars




Oh! is this an elf?






Good night, everyone.

Museums tour-with respect & fear


went to Dr Sun Yat-sen museum & Hong Kong museum of medical science yesterday.
Both museums are situated at mid-levels, central, quite easy to find. finally i got to see the well-known escalator.
I came to the museum at the right time, it was free on every Wednesday!
Save me hk$10!

I was never into history, i only managed to score A1 in my 'O'level because i memorised more than 20 essays! Guess i was lucky to spot the correct questions too!
This exhibition that i went to, show the lives and love stories of both Dr Sun and the wife. Though they only managed to spent only 10years together after marriage,but their love for each other was touching. Despite the unstable political situation,they stayed together with each other.

Not only do i admire their strong believe in love, i also like the structure of the buildings. Standing at the wooden staircase, i seem to went back to the 1920s, where i can hear the screaming of the children's voices in the building, and also the footstep of them running up and down.



I only went to this medical museum because i like to watch CSI. it came as a surprise to me when i saw that the building was also made of another Edwardian style.

I was enchanted by the flowers outside it too. though they may not be as beautiful as those in the flower show, but they have their own charm too.

Everything was ok inside, but when i came to the basement, i was not so sure. There, i found myself among the old equipments used during the 1906. learnt so much about plague and smallpox. I was alone walking under the basement, and i had no idea why, it was the only air-conditioned level among all. To make matter worse, there was this mortuary room which used to house corpses. I didn't stayed long cos i was scared.




Guess i was better outside, under the sun, taking photos for the flowers.
It makes me feel alive.
