Hong Kong Disneyland! (Part I)

10:43 PM

Hong Kong Disneyland definitely is a must place to visit in Hong Kong especially for all Disney's lovers like me. I love Disney so much! My childhood life is filled mostly with Disney even until now and it always become my dream to visit Disneyland. Luckily for me this is the second time I visit Disneyland, the first one was at Tokyo DisneySea in Japan. I'm always excited when I land my feet in this magical land, no matter how old I am I think I will always excited to go here.

It is so easy to go to Disneyland by MTR because they have Disneyland Resort Line. You will ride this cute Mickey Mouse themed train that will bring you directly to Disneyland. Finally we arrived at this magical land! We go directly to the ticket counter to buy the park ticket, the tickets are themed from the movie Toy Story. I take Slinky as my ticket because I had a dachshund before. Now we are ready to play at this magical land.

The first thing we do after we enter Disneyland is to go to the park information shelf. We take the park map and show schedule. It is very important to arrange your time here because Disneyland offers many shows and entertainments that you can see and enjoy and you don't want to miss it.

We were welcomed by Disneyland Band at the Main Street, U.S.A. After passing the Main Street, we decided to play at Tomorrowland. We played Space Mountain and Autopia. Time flies quickly here, it's afternoon already. Don't forget to grab a lunch because we still have a long day to go. We had our quick lunch at Clopin's Festival of Foods, they serve Chinese food here.

Meet Alien! One of my favorite character in Toy Story. I'm really happy when I get this balloon so I wear it around my arm the whole day. To get this you must find this balloon man that will walking around the park, you will need to answer three questions before he makes it for you. Besides Alien, the balloon man can make Pluto and Rose.

Don't forget to try their delicious ice cream. It's really good to eat ice cream on sunny day. Me and my friends buy different kind of flavors, they are buying Mickey Mouse Ice Cream Bar and Dole Chocolate Banana Dippers. For me, I choose Stitch Sherbet Bar because I love Stitch so much! Stitch's paw is really cute and the blueberry flavor really refreshing. I'm a happy kid now.

Welcome to Toy Story Land. In this land we ride two exciting attractions. First is Toy Soldier Parachute Drop and the second on is RC Racer. The RC Racer ride quite scare me, because it has a big drops and moves really fast and I'm not really good with thrill rides. There are seven lands inspired by fairy-tale dreams that you can explore. I already mention four of them, the other are Grizzly Gulch, Mystic Point and Fantasyland.

I'm ending these Hong Kong Disneyland, Part I posts with one of my favorite ride Mystic Manor. Have a great day!

Time for Tea

12:17 PM

It's a pretty afternoon in Hong Kong and after being tired walking around in this beautiful city, it's a good time to have a break. Let's have a tea! There are two types of person, a coffee person or a tea person. For me itself, I'm a tea person. I like coffee too, but I prefer tea more. So me and my friends decided to have an afternoon tea at Teakha or you can spell it -t-e-a-k-h-a.

Teakha is a tea cafe & zakka located in Sheung Wan. All of their teas are organic, handmade and made using traditional methods. Besides organic teas, they also serve light snacks and baked goods. If the day is bright and cool, you can enjoy by sitting at the outside. They place this green rug that looks like a grass and small tables. It's like having a picnic with your friends or loved ones.
