Day 5 -- DisneyLand

Disneyland is everyone's dream. Today, we will be fulfilling one of the dreams we have long waiting for by visiting the Disneyland in Hong Kong!

We started our day with a breakfast at Tsui Wah Restaurant. I opted for Cantonese noodles and it came along with a bowl of congee. Typically Hongkong like breakfast and it suit my taste buds too.


On the other hand, Connie had a bowl of spagetti and it came along with a kaya+butter bun toasted to perfection. Taste pretty good!



After that, we got our journey started towards Disney! The MTR that are going to bring us to Disney is also themed in Mickey Mouse.

From the window towards the handler inside the MTR has the shape of Mickey!


Upon reaching, the station itself is decorated in such a way that we are in Wonderland!


We are now outside the fountain at the entrance of Disney. A very majestic fountain built in a star shape.

Look, who is resting on top of the entrance booth!

This was the first artwork we saw when we entered Disneyland - Mickey Mouse is welcoming us to the happiest place on Earth!

Hong Kong Disneyland provides the magical journeys through four themed lands, namely Main Street U.S.A, Fantasy Land, Adventureland and Tomorrowland.

We started our day by visiting the souveniers shop on Main Street U.S.A.

It's Connie with the ever famous woody. At some part of a time, when the rotation started the puppets will look as though they are dancing all the way. Brilliant!


The Cars with Mickey and Company on show!


Without wasting anytime, we headed towards Tomorrowland. Look how strong am I, I can withstand the weight of a space shuttle! ;p

Connie is ready to drive to Utopia. Look how excited she is.

Next up, Sleeping Beauty Castle. The famous landmark in Hongkong Disneyland. Covered with its pink and blue parapets and towers Sleeping Beauty Castle stood there majesticaly.

We waited for a while before we entered the Castle as upcoming next will be the performance of High School Musical!

Inspired by the mega-hit movie, High School Musical, the live show version delivers an equally high-energy, feel-good interactive experience that was simply enough to kept our adrenalines run high.

After the show, we headed towards The Golden Mickey's.

The 25 minutes musical celebration of Disney films in the form of an awards show that will present the best-loved Disney songs and characters.

For example, Tarzan, Lillo and Stitch. But too bad, I have to watch the show via my camera LCD just to capture those precious moments as per below..



After the show we headed towards Disney's world-famous "It's a small world".


We were took on a leisurely boat ride inside this place. It took us across different continents to discover a fresh child-like perspective on the world. There were singing dolls dressed in colourful costumes. It delivers the message of mutual understanding, peace and love! A must visit!





Connie and the Stitch.

Upcoming next, we headed towards the Adventureland for the "Festival of the Lion King".

It was a colourful pageant of music and dance to celebrate Disney classic animation series "The Lion King". It was a fantastic performance. I got goose bumps along the show. It was so touching!


The Magical Coin Pressing Machine offers tourists to get the souvenirs from Disneyland.

This the "Tarzan's Treehouse" from far. As the name it called the Adventureland, rivers of adventure awaited us as we travel around.

We are now outside of "Liki Tikis". It is a game where water will be splashed to unsuspecting passerby where the squirting of water follows the jungle rhythm. Those who are willing to get wet, can try this!

Some of the nice photos around Adventureland.


I got one Mickey Mouse Ice-Cream Bar to quench my thirst. It was a vanila ice-cream coated with chocalate and the shape of the ice cream look like Mickey Mouse. Cute and tasty!

Sweet moments with icecream on my hand.^^

After that we headed towards the square outside Sleeping Beauty Castle for the Parade of Disney! We saw the Mickeys and Minnie, The Toys Story, Little Mermaid, Cinderella and etc. It was a dream!



When the Parade end, it was photographing session all the way. We started at Cinderella Castle. We are dancing together with Cinderella and the price. :P

Wow, welcome Princess Connie.

I got a chance to dance with Bell. I hope the Beast will not come and beat me. :P

On the background, it is Snow White Grotto. Make a wish in the wishing well and your dream will come true!

The most famous mouse of all time. Welcome Mickey and Minnie!


Winnie the Pooh. It looks so cute with its chubby stomach.

Featuring now is world famous duck. Donald Duck!

The ever pretty Alice. "Alice and the wonderland". Now we are in wonderland!

.Have you ever wonder you could sit in a cup? Disneyland will fulfill your dreams.

As the sky got darker, we headed back towards USA Street to visit the souvenirs shop.

Guess how much this castle cost? It is HKD 3000!

I knew you guys would focus on the foreground when you see this. Please focus on the background. The background is more expensive compared to the glass shoe of Cinderella :P

The cute 7 dwarfs walking back home to meet Snow White after a tiring day at the gold mine.

Jack o'lantern are all over. I will be the devil then. Hehe.

Another sweet moments to share. Mickey is me and Minnie is Connie. :P

It's Connie posing with Winnie the Pooh outside "The Many Adventure if Winnie the Pooh"

Our last visit of the day - Mickey's PhilharMagic. I give 2 thumbs up for this. It offered such amazing 3D spectacular that I have never experience before.

Now sky turned dark very fast and in conjuction with Halloween, there was a special Halloween Parade in Disney. Pretty happening!

At 8pm, it was the prime event of the day. Fireworks. It was the prettiest fireworks that I have seen in my life! Brilliant. I knew you guys must be asking for pictures? My answer would be, go and experience your own. It is worth every single penny! :P

After the fireworks, it is time to say Goodbye. We snapped some pictures before we made our way towards the MTR station.

Even it is at night, Disneyland still look brilliant. I would recommend if you guys plan to go Disneyland, spent a night over there. It is just wonderful. You will then have sufficient time to explore every single corner of Disney.


We took the MTR towards Tsing Yi Station for our last destination of today - Tsing Ma Bridge. On how to reach this place, just take a taxi or green bus 308M from Tsing Yi station at Exit A1.

This is the magnificent Tsing Ma Bridge, the world longest span suspension bridge which carrying both road and rail traffic. It connects Hong Kong with its international airport located on Lantau Island. It glows majestically during the night!

We ended our day today feeling extremely statisfied with what we saw and experienced.
