Day 1 - Hong Kong
Take the children to Australia Dairy Co. at Jordan for an authentic nutritious Hong Kong breakfast to start the day off and then off to Mong Kok. Of special interests are the Goldfish market, Tung Choi Street (Ladies market), Bird Market, Jade Market just to name a few. The afternoon is the best time to go to the street markets because they are then open. Tsim Sha Tsui is unrivaled for shopping, superb dining but the Hong Kong Space Museum will be of special interest to older children who enjoy learning as well as sight-seeing. The exhibits are world class standard. Afterwards, take the top deck of the Star Ferry and you will not be disappointed. If you still have the energy then the family cannot miss the spectacular view of the Hong Kong skyline and Victoria Harbour. Kids must see the Symphony of Lights, where more than 40 buildings on both sides of Victoria Harbour glow in a myriad of lights. Show starts 8pm so make sure that you are at the Tsim Sha Tsui waterfront for the world's largest permanent light and sounds show.

Amusement Parks and Beaches are the theme of today. Ocean Park is home to An An and Jia Jia: the two long time resident Chinese Pandas. These two celebrity pandas are worth a try if they aren't taking a nap. Ocean Park also features thrill rides as well as amazing aquarium exhibits. The South Coast is famous for its relaxed ambience. Repulse Bay is one of the most popular beaches in Hong Kong. The nearby Stanley Market is full of surprises and kids will love the trinkets and bargain buys of Stanley. A fun day ends with fun night with dinner at Ruby Tuesday and dessert at Honeymoon.

Take a Duk Ling Ride from Kowloon Public Pier and set sail into Hong Kong's scenic harbour to Central. Take an early morning walking tour through Central district to see some of he world's most reknowned postcard architecture of the Bank of China Tower. The Mid-levels escalator is bound to keep the kids entertained. The Peak Tram is a must try and is the highlight of the day as the incline is so steep that buildings look like they are leaning on a 45 degree angle. Victoria Peak is the top attraction but kids will love the walk around the Peak. End the day with dinner at Cafe Deco Bar and Grill for a million dollar view.

The family's Lantau experience starts with the Ngong Ping 360 stunning cable car ride that offers breathtaking views of North Lantau and South China Sea. This is no mundane cable car, the bottom of the cable car is made from glass so the kids will be down for the thrill. The world's largest outdoor seated Buddha is a stop along the Ngong Ping 360 cable car ride and not too faraway is the wisdom path, an outdoor replica of the centuries old Heart Sutra. What would a trip be without adding Disneyland. Mickey's tip: Get a FASTPASS for the most popular rides like Space Mountain, Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters or The Many Adventures of Pooh to beat the queues.
