FR: one day trip on foot to OCTOPUSS (my very first FR)

Reach harbourfront centre at 11am,
brought a $48 + $8 business class seat at HORIZON that leave at 1215pm.
The additional $8 come with a girl that serve u drink, wet towel and sweets but the plus point is you can be the first one to alight the ferry and be the first few to chop the passport.

Once reach harbour bay i change money at the ferry terminal area (note: at the time comparing the exchange rate at Harbourfont 9100 and over ferry teminal is 9200).

After that i follow the sign board (ferry check in) and reach the Horizon counter to book the 845pm return ticket.

have a quick lunch at one of the food court near the Horizon counter.. order a big fish with rice cost 20000 ..wow that fish is big and fresh.

Just after the ferry terminal at the food court across the road is Harbour Bay Mall. I walk in the mall from one end the the other exit, exit the mall walk all the way to the main road, at the T junction i turn right and walk toward Pacific Palace Hotel..at that junction i can see a ship look alike building at about 400m away and that is the hotel

Reach at the hotel, i did not entry by the front door, i walk toward the left side of the hotel there another entry at the side of the hotel in the mid section.
Go in take a lift to 8 floor and reach OCTOPUSS, collect a locker key at the counter and a Petty PR will escort you in to discuss what package i would like.
first choose room types:
Suite at 360,000 or
President 363,000 (she say promo now)

Next she will also ask all the available gals line up for me to choose,
there are silver 400,000 and 500,000 for gold
