hong kong post2

hello again! lots has happened since my post yesterday arvo!
-we left for uncle cheesecake's place around 7pm and spent FOREVER on the MTR! lol, the joys of HK's peak-hour traffic. XD
-but we arrived @ uncle cheesecake's place eventually, and saw all of dad's siblings! even third aunty!! she even cooked us awesome dinner! i loved the sweet and sour pork. :) and lol, first aunty: even though she's eighteen years older than dearest dad, she's still very motherly, getting me more vegies. XD
-after dinner, PIG mum moved me away from the table, and i chatted with rolls, who told me that he studied @ calgary in canada.
-before we left, PIG mum helped me once more to the loo.
-we all jammed into a taxi! we being the parents and i, rolls, carrie and ashley! 'twas too squishy for seatbelts~
-coolest thing: there's a computer touchscreen on the back of the passenger seat! i poked around with that while the taxi driver tootled us all home.
-after dropping the chau's off @ tai koo, the taxi driver drove us back to aunty lai's.
-repeat the usual nightly routine, zzz.
-today:
-considering the events of yesterday, 'twas not really a very big surprise that i slept right through almost till sunrise before nature called!
-when nature called a second time, i called for PIG mum, only to have aunty lai answer me, "she's gone out to buy bread for breakfast with your dad." so i went back to sleep.
-when the parents came back, PIG mum took me to the loo, then i sat and enjoyed my first sausage bun in hong kong! :D and huge thanks to mickey who left me one popper of milk to drink! :)
-after one more loo trip, dad took us to the new year's markets! i picked up a dragon head hat and a cute little red dragon, who i named 'xiao hong' (little red in canto).
-we met up with rolls, carrie, ashley and karry!
-then we had yum cha with aunty sally!
-i ordered a hokkien fried rice and was content to trade one bowlful for one charsiu bun, but for some reason, mum, aunty sally, karry and ashley all got a bowl! aunty sally kindly passed me one little piece of charsiu, but horrid PIG mum stole it. :( lesson learnt: in the future, whenever PIG mum's around, i'm eating all the yummiest things from my bowl first.
-we caught the MTR home. i counted; there's fifteen steps to conquer @ that station.
-back @ aunty lai's, PIG mum showered me then i plopped online.
-going to aunty nga's for new year's dinner now!
-hopefully cya toms!
cheers,
em. ^^
