The happiest place on earth
I had just came back from HK and it was totally an enjoyable but tiring trip. The highlight of the trip would be HK Disneyland! Though many people were telling me that HK Disneyland is small and not as good as other Disneyland, I love it to the max! It's definitely the happiest place on earth! I feel so happy and good at the Disneyland. In fact, it may not be that big, but you know what? It's even bigger that our USS.When we touched down at HK, we bought a 3G HK line from the handphone shop, 1010 so that we can still stay connected and use Whatsapp if there is a need. Then, we took the train to Disneyland resort! The train to Disneyland is so cute with the Mickey Mouse-shaped windows and they have display of many of the Disney Characters. It's definitely a happy train with comfortable seats too!Look at the cute windows!When we reached HK Disneyland Resort, we were very excited as the place looks so happy! Haha. Even the shuttle bus is decorated with Disney and Pixar characters! Haha. We took the shuttle bus to our Disney Hollywood Hotel! And I totally love our room! Everything inside the room is in a form of Mickey Mouse! They even gave us 2 hand towels in the form of spider and "sotong".After resting for a while, we took a train to Citygate outlet for shopping! We ate Teppanyaki for dinner which was quite normal only though the potion of vegetables is HUGE. This is a great place for shopping as it has many factory outlets of many branded goods. We also went to the supermarket to shop for grocery before going back to our comfortable room to rest.The next day, all of us were were dressed to the Mickey Mouse theme as we are going to step into the happiest place on earth today! Before going to Disneyland, we went to Ngong Ping 36o to pray to the Buddha. We took the cable car up and it's quite a long way up to the place. The place is totally a happy place for Gwyneth as there is bubbles everywhere! We climbed the stairs to pray to Buddha before making our way back to Disneyland.Praying to BuddhaAnd finally, we are going to Disneyland!As the parade is starting soon, we made our way to the castle to get a good spot to watch the parade. The parade is very nice! All the performers look so happy and energetic! I wish I can join them for the dance! :) This parade is simply fantastic!Flights of Fantasy!After the parade, we walked around the place and there's so much things to buy! All the things look just so cute and happy! Gwyneth had her Dumbo and Merry-Go-Round ride which she enjoyed a lot! She simply refused to move on if we don't bring her for the ride. We also tried the River Cruise, Pooh's ride and the most fun ride would be the Buzz's station! It's so fun to shoot the target! And my sis scored the highest score! She scored 220k points which is like impossible as we only score 5 digits scores! Haha.Thereafter, we went for a quick dinner at Star Diner which served ordinary Western food though I love the fries. hehe. After dinner, we went to queue up to take photo with Minnie Mouse. Gwyneth was like so excited to take photo with her! I could see that she's so anxious to take photo with Minnie that she kept on wanting to "jump queue". When it was finally her turn, she was so happy that she hugged Minnie tightly and closed her eyes while enjoying the hug. She's just so cute... haha.Posing with Minnie who is in Halloween costume!Then, it's time for Halloween Parade. We couldn't see much things as we were quite behind. We could only see from other people's camera which was quite sad, isn't it?And then, we went to gather near the castle to get ready for the fireworks display. The fireworks is totally amazing and it's so beautiful with the music and storyline! I love it! It's definitely one of the best fireworks display I had ever seen. If you don't believe me, you can go Youtube to watch the videos. It's just so beautiful...The beautiful castleIt's getting late and it's time for SHOPPING! I tell you Disneyland is really a great place for shopping! You just feel like buying everything from the shop. Haha.Finally, we left the happy place around 11+ and we made our way back to our happy hotel for a good rest...The next day, it's Gwyneth's birthday! I bought a Mickey Mouse birthday cake for our dearest birthday girl and they were nice to give some party gifts to Gwyneth! Gwyneth loves her birthday cake! After breakfast, it's time to go to the happiest place on earth again!Our beloved birthday girl!Yeah! I love Disneyland!We took the train for awhile then we went to Banquet Hall for lunch. Lunch wasn't that happy at all. After a quick lunch, we went to watch Golden Mickey! It was superb! I love it a lot! :) It's one of the best show in Disneyland. =p After the show, we went to queue up to take photos with Mickey and Minnie! While waiting, I brought Gwyneth to take photos with Pluto and Goofy! Gwyneth is such a happy girl, especially when she gets to see Mickey and Minnie. And when she saw that Mickey and Minnie leaving for 3 minutes break, she bursts into tears! Luckily, they came back shortly, if not Gwyneth will not stop crying. Finally, she got to take photos with her idols and she's so happy! Thereafter, we took photos with Belle and Sleeping beauty too!Naughty Goofy and Pluto!Mickey and Minnie!Belle and Sleeping Beauty! They are so pretty and gentle! Just like a princess!Then, we went to drive the Automatic Car. It's a designated track, so no driving skills is needed actually. Haha. We also tried the Galaxy ride which wasn't that scary. Gwyneth also had her fair share of fun sitting in the spaceship with my mum and me.We also had some light snacks before we went to queue up to enter the haunted house. The haunted house is quite cool though the girls in front of us would kinda warn us of the"ghosts" which makes it less scary for us.It's getting late and it's about time for us to leave this place. We left Disneyland with a heavy heart and with a lot of souvenirs. We went back to the resort to collect our luggage to make our way to City View Hotel. It's quite a long and challenging task to go to the hotel with our luggage. When we reached You Ma Ti station, we were horrified that the station has no escalator or lift! In the end, we had to carry our luggage up the stairs. Luckily, the hotel is just 5 minutes away from the station. When we finally reached the hotel, we were just too happy to put our luggage and relax before we made our way for dinner. We had our dinner at Min Yuan which was quite nice. :) After dinner, we walked around before making our way back to the hotel to rest.Early in the morning, we made our way to a famous Dim Sum place. However, we were told that the waiting time is 2 hours. We decided to go to the famous goose restaurant at Central for lunch instead. Thankfully, we don't have to wait that long at the restaurant. =p Lunch was good. :)Look at the queue! Madness!After a happy lunch, we shopped a bit before making our way back to our hotel to put my sis' shopping loot. We also bought a lot of happy tidbits. :) We rested a while in the room before we went out to shop. We had a happy and satisfying steamboat dinner. After dinner, we walked around for a while before we went back to rest.The next day, Alan and mum went to the Dim Sum shop at 930 to get a queue number. When the shop opened at 10, we were told that the waiting time would be 45 minutes. However, we waited for almost 2hrs before we can have a seat. It's madness. I must say the BBQ pork bun is really nice! I even tabao-ed some to eat as snack later in the afternoon. hehe.We shopped at some sports outlets nearby before making our way to Citygate again to buy Papa Alan's watch! All of us are very happy as we had gotten almost everything we wanted to buy. Then we went back to our hotel to collect our luggage to go to airport.It's quite a short ride to the airport. After checking in our luggage, we had dinner at a HK cafe and the food is quite nice! :) Then it's time for us to board the plane.As usual, I couldn't sleep on the plane. Thankfully, the flight back to Singapore seems to be faster. When I touched down at Singapore airport, I am happy to be back though I must say I miss Disneyland a lot. I'm happy that Jianhui came to pick us up and sent us home.Home Sweet Home!
