HKG: Club Bauhinia Lounge @ Hong Kong International Airport

Level 6 (Near Gate 23), Hong Kong International Airport, Hong Kong Daily: 6.00am - 1.30am The first thing that my BFF and I did upon clearing immigration and getting our luggage was to go outside the terminal building to enjoy the cold December breeze that's absent in Singapore. We went straight to check-in with Hong Kong Airlines after that for our next flight. As we were going to fly in the Business Class, we had the opportunity to enter the flagship lounge named Club Bauhinia Lounge.

SIN-HKG (4h) Boeing 777-300ER ETD: 1.05pm (GMT + 8)  ETA:  5.05pm (GMT + 8) While I aim to try flying with as many airlines as possible in the world, I've always been a loyal customer of Singapore Airlines. I was so excited to soak myself in the atmosphere of the new Business Class cabin.

Level 3, Transit Area, Changi Airport Terminal 3, Singapore Daily: 24 hours "You're going to Hong Kong again!?" is a question that I often get from my peers. Since I really love Hong Kong, there's nothing wrong with that, right? It's been three years in a row that I flew with Singapore Airlines in December to the land of dim sum . The journey began with a relaxing breakfast at the tranquil lounge at Changi Airport Terminal 3.

PNH-SIN (2h) Boeing 737-800 ETD: 6.10pm (GMT + 7)  ETA:  9.10pm (GMT + 8) Overseeing the Overseas Community Involvement Programme in Phnom Penh, Cambodia for a week was tiring, but nothing short of excitement. At the end of it, all I wanted was to go home and rest in the comfort of my bedroom. It was a pity that the flight was delayed though due to the late arrival of the incoming aircraft.

Angkor Phnom Penh Street, Phnom Penh, Cambodia One week flew like a rocket. It was finally time to say goodbye to our beneficiary, the Methodist School of Cambodia, as well as our beloved tour guide. Being the largest airport of the kingdom, Phnom Penh International Airport occupies a land area of 400 hectares. It's located approximately 10 km west of the capital city.

Preah Sihanouk Boulevard 274, Phnom Penh, Cambodia Today's entry is a very short one on two important landmarks in the capital city of Cambodia, which can be found along one of the main roads called Preah Sihanouk Boulevard 274. The picture below shows the Independence Monument that was built in 1958 after gaining independence from France in 1953.

Samdach Sothearos Boulevard 3, Phnom Penh, Cambodia Daily: 8.00am - 11.00am, 2.00pm - 5.00pm We were supposed to visit the Royal Palace to learn about the Cambodian history on the day of arrival. However, due to the cancellation of the morning flight as mentioned previously, we had not choice but to postpone the visit all the way close to the end of the trip. The full name of the royal residence of the king is Preah Barum Reachea Veang Chaktomuk Serei Mongkol.
