Hong Kong Disneyland, Here I Come!

Day 4:

Here’s wrapping up the last two days of my previous trip to HK before embarking you to another journey of mine to Perth, Australia.

This is a pix of me in 1985, my 1st trip to Disneyland USA, to realize my childhood dream with my favourite character Minnie Mouse.

After that, I went on to cover Disneyland Tokyo, Paris & finally Hong Kong. I hesitated for a long time before visiting the one in HK because of the negative feedback I gathered from many people.

It was only after couple of years later that I’d decided to make my 1st visit in 2007. I went with very low expectation but I’d enjoyed myself so much that I’d decided that won’t be my last. So here I was again, making my 2nd trip to Disneyland HK.

Pamper yourself with Disney-themed amenities as you slumber in one of the rooms in Disneyland Hollywood Hotel. If you’re a Disney fan like me, you’ll go crazy with all the room décor & freebies……

These in-room amenties will definitely make your stay a memorable & an unforgettable one.

As most rides do not allow photo-taking inside, you won't be seeing any here. However, do take advantage of the many photo sessions with your fave characters at no cost at all @ the Fantasy Gardens.

Discover your talent by learning to draw characters like Mickey Mouse @ the Animation Academy.

I drew this during my 1st trip. Not too bad, eh??

Characters coming alive during Parade @ Main Street USA, a must-watch!

Go crazy shopping for your beloved Disney stuff!

B’fast Tim-sum @ Crystal Lotus, approx HK$200. Besides having your food served in cute Disney shapes & sizes, you’ll also get to “dine” with your Disney Characters.

This trip, we didn’t opt for the Disney-themed b’fast & we regretted. We’d this the last time & we’d priority entry to the park before it opened to the public.

This time, we’d to join the long queues in the scorching sun to enter the park the next day. Bad choice. So if you wanna skip the queue, be sure to book your Disney b’fast before you go.

If you’re staying @ the Hollywood Hotel, be sure to check out the nice scenery outside the hotel. There’s a gate at the back of the hotel when you can sneak in & out to the seaside.

My hubby likes to stroll along the lush landscape of Disney’s garden-like promenade in the night. The ambience is very romantic especially with your loved ones.

As we’d a full-day out in the park, coupled with the fact that my legs were too tired due to the endless shopping before we were here, I didn’t want to take the walk. But I relented after hubby’s persistence. When my legs couldn’t take it anymore, Ken had to piggy-back me to the hotel from the garden :)
