Hong Kong Disneyland

Do you know the place they called "Happiest Place on Earth"? Well, my family and I, we've been there last November. I say, we were all kids on that day!


I would not start this post by describing every corner of this place. Because we we're not a very good tourist and didn't do the right thing a tourist should be. We didn't even got the chance to see the Flights of Parade. (I'll never be a travel blogger!) and we didn't even have a pictures with Mickey and Minnie at the entrance. We were there the whole day and yet there's so much more to see. One day is not enough to explore the whole place. I swear, time stood still while we were there. I was shocked when I looked at my watch that we've been there for almost 6 hours when I feel like we've just arrived. And when I did realize that time was running out, that's when I explore like a maniac. Making the most of what we can enjoy with our remaining time.



We save the best ride of the night - The Big Grizzly Mountain, Runaway Mine Cars! Oh yeah! After riding this I felt camaraderie to everyone who is there and especially to Gian whom I shared a sit. We were all laughing and exhilarated after this ride.You know whats so funny about this ride is that I don't have any clue what to expect. My nephew warned me its like a roller coaster but I thought they were joking and just scaring me. I'm tougher than I look noh! It's not as scary and worse as that of a real roller coaster and not as boring as that of carousel. Its exciting. So try this one when you're in Disneyland. Other rides, I rode for the benefit of the little one.



BTW, this trip would not possible if not for my ate's family. She never tells us they were going home to take a vacation. And she didn't want to tell us we we're going to Disneyland if we didn't persuade her! More of FORCED her to tell us what is that big surprise that is written in her itineraries. hehe. They are the master of all surprises and they succeeded in surprising us nonetheless. But its no secret that we went to Disneyland to celebrate the first birthday of our one and only princess - Nyanne! Our luck that Yeng's first birthday theme is Minnie Mouse. How fitting to celebrate it at Disneyland!


I'm not done yet, the concluding and awaited part is the moment where my son cries a lot! Haha! The fireworks! He doesn't like the loud noise and not use to all excited people. But that amazing fireworks with the fairy tale music in front of the Fantasyland? MA.GI.CAL!




Almost done, we went back to our hotel with our face flush with smiles and giggles. Ah, how nice it is to be transported back into childhood. Where magic, and fairies and happy ever after do exist. It is indeed a happy place to be! The only thing that makes it the happiest? My family! Uhhh, so, when will the Tokyo Disneyland be? 2nd Birthday? 7th Birthday?

Back Again

If my blog has feelings, it would have been very upset with me. Its not like i dont have time to write. Or dont have story to write. Its just that i felt lazy and sort of uninspired. The one thing that is close to my heart and yet i somewhat deliberately ignored for the past 2 months. And for what? For facebook who is not even productive? For facebook who sometimes lets me down? For facebook who is full of crap and facade? Oh yeah you would be mad at me for sticking out with facebook when we can both have a marvelous time together.

My dear neglected blog, i am so sorry. Let me make it up to you, by promising to write more honestly to you. No more posts that i think would direct more readers to me. To hell with that. Im tired with that. From now on, I wont write for others. I'll write for myself. Let's start this year with that.
