Arcade Fun in Hong Kong
The weather was scorching hot when were in Hong Kong last month. To keep away from the sun we did a mixture of indoor and outdoor activities with the kids.
One of the places which the kids really enjoyed was the arcade. The arcades there were slightly different from the ones that we have been in Singapore. There were a few mini amusement park rides which both parents and kids could go on together.
In Singapore there were only game machines and no rides available . We can only go on such rides if there was a pasar malam (night market) being put up in the area. Even so I question the safety aspect of such rides which are available for the kids to play at these temporary night markets and will not let the kids go on them.
The boys found the ride not really thrilling as they have experienced more exciting rides at the various theme parks that they visited in Japan, Korea and Thailand. Tiger girl on the other hand was fascinated and really enjoyed herself.
It was the first time that she was able to play bowling as the had mini bowling lane for kids. The bowling ball was just nice for her hand and she was able to bowl with ease.
The kids and us spent a whole two and a half hours using up the HKD $100 credit that we allocated for them to play.
Do your kids love to go to the arcade too?

My child is too young for arcade games but my older niece and nephew love it. It is pretty much impossible not going into one if we happen to pass by it in a mall. It is also a chore to get them to leave afterwards.

Our daughter loves arcades, her dad on the other hand hates them. Thankfully as she’s gotten older, museums hold as much fascination for her as the arcades once did. It makes for much more peaceful vacations.
You got some great shots of the kids enjoying themselves. Mine would never sit still long enough for a photo.

My kids loved the rides, but we tried to stay away from the arcades, they cost too mush $$ for little prizes.
