Northshore: Billabong Pipeline Surfing Competition

Thanks to Joel (left) who brought us out to watch one of the biggest surfing competition, along with his friend, Adam (right), who drove.
Oh, that's Joel's dog, Mariah. She's a Labrador Shar-Pei.



Surf's up!


Click to see the enlarged version. You can actually spot that dude coming out from that "pipeline".







Mega huge waves of about 15ft. Sat there wondering how the hell they even manage to swim out to sea......
A-M-A-Z-I-N-G.
December - January's the time to come if you wanna see some super huge waves that go could go as high as 60ft.

Lantau Island & whatever's before that.

Just a quick pic-spam.

Finally got another 2 rolls of film developed.


The 25-min cable car ride to the Ngong Ping village. It gets really really high. 2nd highest peak in HK (i think).



Once there, the main attraction's the Big Buddha.


And around the Bug Buddha are..smaller statues (ikr)..



And well, just some snippets of our lives:

Here's how a typical HK MTR platform looks like. Yes that's Hongzuo. And this shot was taken when we went Macau...

This was during Mid Autumn Festival. We popped by Victoria Park. To be honest, I expected it to be like the TVB dramas, where families sit on the grass and devour mooncake after mooncake.

But it was like one big carnival. Perhaps we went to the wrong side of the park, or even the wrong park.

We had our fortunes told:




This is in Tsuen Wan, IMO one of the more beautiful places in HK. It overlooks Tsing Yi (think atas expat area). and a very nice and serene place for a lazy afternoon.


The 2010 Michelin Guide for Hong Kong/Macau, which we (HZ and I) got in a press conference. Been my food bible since. We tried visiting the cheapest 1-Michelin star restaurant in the world (ie less than S$10 for a meal). We went 1.5hours before the place closed and they stopped accepting customers already. I vow to make another trip down and dine there!

Well, the street I walk down every day to commute between home and work.

The entrance of my apartment building.



I've probably got more pictures. Will find the time to post them up.

I'M BACK FROM CHIANGMAI!

and i lost my camera, WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
