Hello Kitty Cafe Le Petit
Causeway Bay
Today is our birthday! I'm still feeling a bit sick but better
compared yesterday and like I said ample rest is all I need to feel
better. Our last itinerary for this trip is to go to Hello Kitty
Garden Cafe in Ormsby but it was a Monday so the cafe is
unfortunately closed so we just decided to visit their Le Petit Cafe
in Causeway bay which is just few stations away from Tsuen Wan.
We took the train from the Tsuen Wan station and alighted at the Admiralty
station then took the interchange (blue line) bound to Causeway Bay,
3rd stop from Admiralty. We entered the mall (that sells
shoes etc) which is right at the Causeway Bay exit and took the
escalator. The Hello Kitty Cafe Le Petit is at the ground floor where
the supermarket is. It was a small stall, no sitting area. There's
just a little corner where you could devour your cake or sip your
coffee standing as there isn't any single chair.
We bought ourselves our little birthday cakes since were old we don't
need to celebrate anymore like kids do during their birthdays lol. I
bought myself this apple cake for 48HKD whilst my sister got herself
this cake with a crown for 35HKD. We were solved with that and
decided to bring them to our hotel room instead since there isn't any
food court where we could devour our cakes anyways.

I just spent the day resting because I can't endure the heat outside.
I thought HK's weather is the same as Baguio but to my dismay It was
just a little colder than Manila. I got sick because of the sudden
change of temperature I guess because it's really cold where I'm from
and we're talking about 20-25ºC the hottest whilst
Manila and HK temperature ranges from 28-30ºC plus.
We started packing again for our trip back to the Philippines. I love HK but I wish we could've stayed somewhere close to the central area so that travelling through train wouldn't be that time consuming.
MTR
Travelling via train is a breeze in HK because their MTR stations are
clean and not so congested compared to Manila. They have very
systematic train system which is reminiscent to that of Singapore. The train routes are color coded so you won't get lost unless you're not paying
attention to the signs that will lead you to where you're supposed to
go.
Their MTR map is pretty basic and comprehensive. You just have to understand from which point you came from towards your destination. If the maps shows dual colors it means an interchange. An interchange is where you alight to get to another line because if you don't you'll be stuck in one area no matter how long you stay on the train. Just make sure to get yourself an MTR map the moment you get yourself an Octopus card. The train has its own map by the way with matching blinking lights that will tell which stop it is and so as the next one up.
