Oh my god I wish I could just sleep in.. But today is an exciting day because today we go to Hong Kong Disneyland! This is how I envisioned my day!
Nope.
It was grey and gloomy and raining when we woke up. But we decided to carry on with our itinerary. We bought umbrellas last night, so nothing was going to stop us now! But 1st, breakfast! I've been to Hong Kong umpteen times and we're almost half a local there. So it seemed unnecessary then to do any research regarding where to eat. This time round I was determined to enjoy myself like a tourist! So I did my homework and listed down all the must-eat in Hong Kong. One of the most popular must eat place is Australian Dairy Co.
It's just a few minutes walk from our hotel, which reemphasized how awesome our hotel was. :)
Not surprisingly, there was already a queue outside the restaurant. But thankfully we persisted and got a seat within 10mins! Only had time for one selfie!
Like any char chan teng, it was loud and bustling. But it was amazing how efficient the place was. The food arrived within another 5mins of ordering!
The scrambled eggs were very fluffy and delicious, but our hands-down favourite was their French Toast. How good? After trying mine, Cobby couldn't resist and ordered another one for himself! YUM!!!
But we really don't know how to appreciate their drinks. They like to load it with too much milk. Bleh~ With our bodies all fueled up we were ready to go! We took the usual MTR route and soon we were on the Mickey Mouse Train to Disneyland.
Reality of travelling with toddlers. :P
I remembered taking a photo with Jolie a few years ago, so I asked Cobby to take one for us again. Look how much we've changed!
Couldn't resist taking pictures of the fountain.
We're here!
When we got in we saw Mickey and Minnie at Main Street! I couldn't pass taking photo with the ambassadors of Disneyland, so I asked Cobby to queue up while I watch Jayden. Jayden and I took some selfies while waiting.
We queued for almost 1 hour, but it was worth it. :)
The next few hours went by in a blur.
Jay fell asleep after lunch, so Cobby and I took turns. One would go on rides with Jolie while the other stay in the comforts of the air conditioned gift shops and watch Jayden sleep. I wished Jayden could join us for more rides, but I guess it can't be helped.
It rained sporadically while we were there but we were undaunted! Most rides were sheltered or indoors anyway.
We took a few more rides later but we didn't take much pictures. I guess we were there so many times that we just want to enjoy ourselves instead of taking pictures.
Besides, it was so hot and humid that many times we just have no mood to smile and pose for the camera. By late afternoon we can tell by the looks of the kids that they have reached their limits. The heat and the exhaustion had taken a toll on them and we think it was time to call it a day. After shopping for some gifts, we left Disneyland for dinner. BYE~!
We needed air conditioning! So for dinner we headed to Olympian City. If you like shopping and dining in a huge shopping centre like in Singapore, this is a place for you! We were craving for Italian pizza and pasta, (pizza, pizza, pizza!) so we chose Bene Pizza + Pasta. Tasted pretty good, Jolie even dropped her loose tooth while chomping on her pizza! I think it grossed out the diners at the next table, but we were just so happy for her. :D We even bought snacks and fresh fruit in the supermarket there. Perfect!
By the time we got back to the hotel it was already quite late. We were tired but we had so much fun too. Hopefully the next time we visit Disneyland we can spend more time there. :)
