As usual, Princess Dr Becky Leogardo took the easiest and fastest way to Ocean Park for herself, Achin von Hake, Daniel, Gloria, Linda the nanny and Kee Hua Chee byb ordering 2 taxis.
But it was easier said than done!
Since the students' demos were still going on at Admiralty and parts of Central, the staff of Gateway hotel could not get a taxi to take us there for love or money. Ocean Park is located on Hong Kong island across the harbour and we were in Kowloon. So after half an hour, we gave up and took a bus!
It was a direct connection from Gateway hotel on Canton Road all the way to Ocean Park though it took us more than an hour.
Upon arrival, Achim von Hake sprang a surprise by producing Ocean Park tickets for everyone from his pocket!
How and when did he buy the tickets that cost him HK$ 1,920 or RM 808 (RM 135 per ticket) as he did not purchase them at the entrance!
Explained the tall, fair and handsome German, "I flew to Hong Kong last week to buy the tickets then flew back to Taipei. Then I flew into Hong Kong again to see you guys!"
Waaaa...
Continued Achim von Hake, "No need ask such questions! It is a secret. You do not know me yet. I have many secrets you don't know."
No wonder Daniel and Gloria adore Achim von Hake who purchased the tickets for everyone to enter Ocean Park tjat cost him RM 808
Thumbs up for generous Achim von Hake!
