Hongkong Trip - Part 2 (March 2012)

Our second day in Hongkong was really a fun one. Since we are all kids at heart, we dedicate the one whole day to our dream destination: HONGKONG DISNEYLAND!!! We bought our tickets at Hongkong Agency at China Travel Services in Tsim Sha Tsui with free lunch. We are sooo excited that we have to leave early and took our breakfast while commuting to Disneyland. I love the trains going to Disneyland because it is customized with Disney characters such as Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Chipmunks and a whole lot more. We started early so we have to wait for the gates to open. One of the perks of being early in the theme park is that you will be able to capture pictures with few distractions and get to fall in line with the cartoon characters you wished to take pictures.

This is how we spent our day at Hongkong Disneyland:

8:00 AM - Have a quick breakfast and rode MTR going to Disneyland

Our Passes to Disneyland

9:00 AM - Already waiting at the main gate of the theme park. Since we are still waiting, we kill the time by posing for pictures. It was a chilly day and it was quite raining.
