This has got to be my last trip this year.. Not quite the right timing as it's just the beginning of summer in HK, but with the rest of the family's schedule, it'd have to be this time. I'm meeting my mom, sisters & my nephew & nieces there and I'm rather excited despite the heat-wave..
What a novel idea to stay at Disney Hotel though, as we were with the kids.. it's a charming hotel really, I lost count of the number of Mickey's head embedded on the floor, on the pillars and everywhere else in the hotel. Here's the view from the balcony of our room, it's quite lush & green and they have a maze garden too...
We stayed there for two nights before moving to the main island, closer to the shopping district. In the meantime, it was 2 days full of Disneyland. It was fun, yet very, very tiring.. especially with the whole group of us girls and 3 small kids to boot! Suddenly I felt very old.. ^_~
Look at the throngs of people, it's the Summer holiday and everybody goes to Disneyland,
it was super crowded!!! We had breakfast with the Disney characters @ the hotel, then made our way straight to Disneyland until late at night when they hold the fireworks show...
Then we watched the Summer Parade, and got water sprayed everywhere.. Oh, I spotted Chip & Dale!! They're one of my favorite Disney characters, besides Stitch.. :)
Some of the shows like Golden Mickey, Lion King, and interview with Stitch were also very well done.. and so's the food.. Unlike in the US where we could only get hot dogs and the like, here we have Maxim, the dim sum restaurant! I found that quite amusing... Well, I'm pretty sure I have some videos of some of the shows somewhere in my hard drive, I'll upload 'em later..
Anyway, at the end of the day, we were deadbeat, I barely had the strength to drag myself to the bed!!
