Finally bought our 5 days free & easy trip package to Hong Kong from Chan Brothers. Our initial flight to Hong Kong was by Garuda Indonesia but due to some reason, all Garuda flights were cancelled during the period and we were giving given an alternate airline – Cathy Pacific Airways.<\/p>\n

The day finally arrived. It was my first time traveling on an airplane and also first time traveling on a holiday with JR! JR & I were in charge of planning the entire trip, including the booking of our accommodation in Shenzhen.<\/p>\n
