10 May 2007: A Happy Reunion!

I woke up early to the smell and taste of Portugese egg tarts. It was my first breakfast in weeks, since I never have the practice of eating one in my hectic Singapore mornings. After having the tarts, I went to meet Elvis at the Tsim Sha Tsui MTR station. It was noon, and he brought me to a buffetaurant for lunch. Our next destination was Harbour City, a famous shopping mall for the rich and affluent. I was the great pretender, comparable to King Richard III.

Of course, it was nice meeting up with Elvis! We skirted the whole district of Tsim Sha Tsui and walked the Avenue of Stars, where we had most of our photos taken. My tired legs soon demanded a rest, but ironically led me all the way to Mongkok before stopping. It was there where we had my favourite mango dessert, again!

In the evening, I went to meet up with Debby, Teresa, Paul, Ansel, Alison and Vivian (from left to right in photo) at a Chinese restaurant in Mongkok. Teresa and I, the Taurean babies, were pleasantly surprised when they wheeled in a cake lit with candles. Then, I received from Debby a bag of homemade cookies as a belated birthday gift. Great taste came with the thought, and Debby has good culinary skills to speak of! Thanks everyone, if you are reading this belated post! Sigh, when will we meet again?!
