| Hong Kong | Madame Tussauds at the Peak Posted: Thu May 15, 2008 03:35 PM UTC
Hi VT members,
Has anyone gone to Madame Tussauds at the Peak? Was it worth it? Approximately, how many hours would it take to look around? Will go to the Peak at 4pm. Would love to catch the sunset there. Was wondering if we could finish M. Tussauds from 4-5pm? Or would we need more time? Thanks in advance for any inputs. |

| Hong Kong | U.S. Dollar in Ocean Park Posted: Sun May 11, 2008 05:58 PM UTC
Hi, everyone,
For our first trip on the first day of our vacation in Hongkong, we will be going to Ocean Park at 9 a.m. We only have limited HK$ with us and most of the money we have are US$. Since the bank is still closed during this time, can the stores in Ocean Park accept US$? The last time we went, there was a store that accepted US$ but I don't know if ALL the stores accepted US$. I hope somebody can help. Thanks in advance! |

| Hong Kong | cockatoos / parrots in Hong Kong? Posted: Fri May 9, 2008 05:59 AM UTC
Hi everyone,
I heard that there are parrots (white, yellow-crested cockatoos) in one or more city parks in Hong Kong. They probably stem from escaped / released cage birds and form a colony at a park in Hong Kong. Does anyone know which city park this is or where to see these birds (white cockatoos with a yellow crest)? Are they easy to observe there? Thank you very much in advance for your answers! Kiki |
