Gloomy skies greeted us, as we were on a 30 minute bus ride going to our Hostel Accomodation. From the airport, A21 Bus dropped us off at Mongkok station which is located in the green line of the MTR system map.
We were challenged enough following signs and directions as we looked for our accommodation. It took us extra minutes walking around. Though we got a map but I guessed it was because we were all overwhelmed with the idea of being able to roam around freely in HK city. No one has realized that we were already walking opposite Sincere House in Argyle Street. Good thing we were all level-headed no ones to be blame and nothing can stop us this time. The excitement has always been there as we anticipate our afternoon date in the Fantasy World.

We were hopeful that Sunny skies would appear by lunchtime. But before that we have settled first with our accommodation and left our belongings securely.
A good friend who visited HK previous month suggested this hostel so we have booked for it while still in Cebu to assure us of a place to stay once we arrived.
Thanks to pearl for initiating all the necessary communication and transactions online. We paid them initially for 1 night as down payment and reservation, full payment once checked in.
WHERE IS DRAGON HOSTEL LOCATED
For the next 3 days and 2 nights we had DRAGON HOSTEL as our choice for accommodation.
it is located in Kowloon Area in Argyle Street and it’s also near the Night Market.
Location has an easy access to 7 eleven store across the building and it is nearby McDonalds or you may also want to explore in some restaurants serving authentic dishes along the streets.
We have chosen this cheap accommodation to save us money at the same time we thought that booking a hotel would defeat the purpose, knowing that we will be spending majority of the hours outdoors and we will just be home to sleep literally c”,)
