| Hong Kong, Day Two - DisneyLand |

thank God for the exceptional fine weather that day. though we got burnt by the sun, reckoned it's better than getting drenched. and bear with me, this has got more than 50 pics.

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::tired..so we took a break and had a light meal which didn't come cheap. sorrie about the color of the left pic - it was too dark and this was the only way so our faces can be seen, heh =p::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::and the toilet! it may not be the prettiest looking but its air-conditioned, with lotsa room and its equipped with disposable toilet seat covers where you can use to protect that lil throne of yours, i like!::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::one of the kiddy rides we took::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::poisoned his good friend??::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::no wonder. i couldn't agree more *lolx::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::then we moved off to Tarzan's treehouse..::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::which had a good view from the top::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::reading...::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::the boyfriend always make me do stupid pose..and you still say i dun listen enough to you? *pouts::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::then in the afternoon, all rides were temporarily suspended just to cater for this parade, it was good wet fun though::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::minnie::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::mickey::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::the three lil pigs::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::after all the spraying and super soakers, the rides and shows were all put back on and we headed for the 3-D show; it was very good i must say, one of the best in fact::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::another one of those shows, this one is about the Lion King - Simba::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::after that we headed for Tomorrowland...::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::where the boyfriend had lotsa fun..but when will it be real?::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::one of those rides @ Tomorrowland::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::we also stopped by to get directions. actually the boyfriend is just pretending, he enjoys being a tourist holding a map in his hand but i must say, he's real good at it. he guided and led me throughout the way, except for that horrible experience we had in ShenZhen which yours truly took the lead and left for HongKong on our own - will tell ya more of that in the next post::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::decided to drop by the history and making of mickey and friends::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::shhhh....mickey @ work::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::then we headed to the stores for some air-con::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::i also took pics with the pple there...there all have very pretty uniforms::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::by now, we had finished almost everything there was to disneyland, so we took the train back to where we could find some food::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::when we reached our destination, we found a note that goof wrote..::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::@ one of the restaurants::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::but we chose the chinese restaurant instead. hmmmm what to eat? i'm SO hungry!::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::and all the boyfriend could do was smile at the camera because he said he liked the drawing on the teapot *faints::

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
::then after dinner, we headed out to the castle to wait for the fireworks::

no amount of words could do the fireworks justice, not even pictures of it. we tried recording it down but the effects weren't as great as the real thing. will try to put what we have up to youtube though. so...in conclusion, HongKong Disneyland is the place to go if you are on a budget (as compared to Tokyo or the Americas), however be very careful of you-know-who next door whom are all running into HongKong. at our current age, being able to afford coming here was a blessing from the Father, and we are very thankful for that. =)
