Alvin & Mayvis came for a visit and a holiday... day 6 (25 March 2010)

Not much pictures.. Just some last minute shopping in Hong Kong, and it was back to Guangzhou we went!

And then, Marcus and I checked ourselves into the same hotel as Alvin and Mayvis. We were no longer staying at our friend's place, as we are down to our final few days before going back to Singapore for good.

Alvin & Mayvis came for a visit and a holiday... day 4 (23 March 2010)

After the fun two-days and one night stay in Disney Hotel, we checked into the hotel Marcus and I use whenever we are in Hong Kong - The Empire Hotel at Tsim Sha Tsui...

Bright and early on 23 March, we went straight to shopping.. for our DSLR camera!! Lol.. From here on, all pictures are taken using our new toy, the Nikon D5000 with its kit lens.

After getting our new toy, we walked back to the hotel to keep the boxes and the free gifts, before going out again!
