Working in the dance industry, there is always no “Merry Christmas” for me. There is only “Busy Christmas”. I have to follow 7 dance performances in 4 days. Last Friday was my first day.
In the fxxking early morning, I went to “The Repulse Bay” for the first performance. The Repulse Bay is at the most southern of Hong Kong, which is one of the most famous and expensive residential area of Hong Kong.
身於舞蹈行業,我永沒有聖誕快樂,只有聖誕工作。今年的聖誕,四天內共有7個演出,昨天星期五就是瘋狂4天的第1天。
一大早我就去了香港島的淺水灣影灣園準備第一個演出。影灣園是香港其中一個最著名也是最昂貴的住宅區。
The Repulse Bay is the former colonial-style Repulse Bay Hotel (1920-1982) which was the most famous hotel in Hong Kong. Hollywood film “Coming Home” (1978) and “Love is a Many-Splendored Thing” (1955) also took place at the hotel. Another gimmick of Repulse Bay Hotel is that it is one of the important scene of the most famous Chinese novel “Love in a Fallen City”. Almost all Chinese know the hotel because of the novel.
影灣園的前身就是淺水灣酒店 (1920-1982),相信看過傾城之戀的朋友都聽過這酒店的名字了,范柳原和白流蘇的第一次見面,就在淺水灣酒店的露台。而除了傾城之戀,其實兩部荷李活電影,1955年的生死戀和1978年的榮歸也在淺水灣酒店取景拍攝。

Now The Repulse Bay still keep the feature of Repulse Bay Hotel and you may find the colonial HK style here. And it is an honor that we may have dance performance in the place.
現在淺水灣酒店已改建成影灣園,但它仍保留了大量淺水灣酒店的特色,我們也十分榮幸能在這裡表演!
After the performance, I took the ferry to Macau for the 2nd dance performance. The performance venue is Broadway Macau. It is a newly built Macau hawker-style street market in 2015. You can find more than 40 Macau style restaurants and shops in the street. And we had a medley kids dance performance at the place.
表演結束後,我匆匆趕到澳門準備第二場演出,這次演出地點是澳門百老滙大街。百老滙大街是2015年新落成的全新景點,內有超過40間本地餐廳及20間商店,我們在這裡進行了一個Medley舞蹈演出。

After staying in Macau for around 4 hours, I went back to HK again to join the drinking gathering with my dancers’ friends. We went to the Nobushi Shochu Bar at Tsim Sha Tsui which is operated by one of the dancers. There were many Sake!
在澳門逗留短短4個小時,我又坐船回香港了!為的是答應了Dancers朋友的酒聚。酒聚地點是尖沙咀的野武士酒吧,這間走日本特色的酒吧有很多日本清酒!拍照一流!
Say bye to Macau 再見澳門

We enjoyed a wonderful night.
我們就這樣渡過了一個愉快的晚上。
And today is my second busy day, I have just finished one dance performance again and I need to join the dance rehearsal at 11pm tonight. During the Christmas, I may need to disappear for a while. So see you and Merry Christmas!!!
今天是第二天的忙碌日,我剛剛又完成了一個演出,現又要準備晚上11時的綵排了。聖誕期間,我應該了失踪一段時間,先祝大家聖誕快樂!聖誕後見!
