Happiest place on the planet

Thursday, March 27, 2014


Today I'll be blogging about Disneyland - like finally!!!

I was thinking of sharing about my solo trip to Jogjakarta first (yup, solo!!!) but then I realized my Hong Kong posts are way overdue so before I forget every single details about the trip, I must quit procrastinating already! By the way, do you know how difficult it is for me to select pictures for this entry? I took almost 400 pictures just in Disneyland itself, because I was wowed by everything I laid my eyes on.

Disneyland is simply MAGICAL.

One doesn't simply step into Disneyland and not feel happy and young again. If you do, then that's probably because you have some shitty childhood with Disney, issues with amusement parks or whatever reasons I can't possibly think of.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE DISNEYLAND.  ❤ ❤ ❤

My cousins and I, we love it so much that we don't mind being frivolous wearing Minnie Mouse headbands all day long and buying tons of other (expensive) Disney  merchandise.

Typical tourist shot in Hong Kong.

To get to Disneyland, you can take a MTR to Sunny Bay station and then board the cutest train ever there.

What cute train am I talking about aye?

THIS!

The moment the four of us stepped into the train, the kid in us squealed in delight at everything we see. Everything! From the handrails to the windows, everything is just SO cute! Irony is, even though we're in the cutest train on Earth heading towards the happiest place on the planet, the people around us were not happy at all. At least they don't look like they were. Or maybe, it's just us being oh so over the top.

The first thing we had in mind was to eat! We didn't want to go through the same misfortune we experienced in Ocean Park where the one and only stall which sells Halal cuisine closed down before we could get anything for our rumbling tummies.

FYI, there are two restaurants in Disneyland that sell Halal-certified food. First, the Explorer's Club at Mystic Point and second, the Tahitian Terrace located at Adventureland.

Probably a tad too expensive for just this Nasi Lemak but hey, nothing in Disneyland is cheap, you know?

Queuing up for the Jungle River Cruise.

Next we took a raft which led us to the Tarzan Island, where we learned about Tarzan and his friends, and also explored his tree house. That's all, nothing much to do here.

Sadly it rained cats and dogs after that. Which means the Flights of Fantasy Parade is cancelled !! :(

So we went inside the Princess souvenirs shops and did some shopping....

Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters!

Basically you will  be seated in a spinning "spaceship" and you have to shoot some enemies then compare your scores at the end...
