DAY 2 IN HONG KONG ----DISNEYLAND!

KEE@FSWMAG.COM
PRINCESS DR BECKY LEOGARDO, HER CHILDREN DANIEL, GLORIA AND RAPHAEL, HER 2 NANNIES AND I SPENT THE WHOLE DAY AT DISNEYLAND HONG KONG AND HAD THE TIME OF OUR LIFE! 

DISNEYLAND IS STILL THE FIRST, THE ORIGINAL AND THE BEST THEME PARK EVER IMAGINED AND BUILT! 

I HAVE BEEN TO MANY THEME PARKS AND AMUSEMENT CENTRES BUT DISNEYLAND, BE IT IN HONG KONG, TOKYO OR PARIS (I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO DISNEYLAND USA SAD TO SAY) REMAINS THE KING! THE TRUE THEME PARK WHERE HAPPINESS OF THE GENUINE KIND LIVES 24/7!

TICKETS ARE SIMILAR WORLDWIDE---RM 200 FOR ADULTS AND RM 100 FOR KIDS OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT! IT IS NOT CHEAP BUT ONCE INSIDE, ALL RIDES ARE FREE.

THE ONLY SNAG IS THE QUEUE! FAMOUS AND FABULOUS AND FANTASTIC AS I AM, EVEN I WAS OBLIGED TO QUEUE AS THE STAFF DID NOT SEEM TO RECOGNISE ME AND INSISTED I JOINED THE HEAVING HORDES LINING UP!

THE QUEUE AVERAGES 20 MINUTES THOUGH 30 MINUTES CAN BE EXPECTED AND 1 SOLID HOUR IS NOT UNKNOWN! I SPENT 55 MINUTES TO 1 HOUR QUEUING FOR 'INDIANA JONES AND TEMPLE OF DOOM' IN PARIS AND 'SPACE MOUNTAIN' JUST FOR 3 MINUTES OF RIDE! BUT WHAT PRICE IS SALVATION?

IF YOU ARRIVE BY 10 AM WHEN DISNEYLAND HONG KONG OPENS AND STAY TILL 6 PM, YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO ENJOY 10 TO 12 RIDES! 

GETTING THERE IS EASY---IF YOU ARE WITH A FEW FRIENDS (UP TO 5), TAKE A TAXI! IT IS CHEAPER THAN TAKING THE TRAM AS THE TAXI COSTS RM 120 ONE WAY! SPLIT THAT WITH 5 FRIENDS AND IT IS RM 22!

FOOD IS WHAT YOU EXPECT TO PAY---AROUND RM 42 FOR MAIN COURSE AND DRINK. WE ATE AT TAHITIAN TERRACE AND I ALMOST FAINTED WHEN THE MENU LISTED NOT 1 BUT 3 MALAYSIAN DISHES! WITH THE WORDS' BEREMPAH' AND 'MALAYSIAN FRIED RICE' AND 'NASI LEMAK' MENTIONED AND SPELLED CORRECTLY! 

OF COURSE THE HONG KONGERS DO NOT UNDERSTAND A WORD BUT THEY READ THE CHINESE VERSION. I NEVER KNEW DISNEYLAND HONG KONG IS OWNED BY MALAYSIANS! OK SO WE DON'T OWN IT BUT I AM SO HONOURED OUR DISHES ARE FEATURED PROMINENTLY IN THE MENU OF TAHITIAN TERRACE AND MALAYSIA IS NOWHERE NEAR TAHITI!

IF YOU COME HONG KONG, VISIT DISNEYLAND AND YOU DON;T EVEN HAVE TO BE PARENTS TO ENJOY YOURSELF! 

THE HEAT CAN BE ENERVATING BUT WE ARE MALAYSIANS!

OK SO THIS IS NOT DISNEYLAND HONG KONG BUT BUILDINGS ON THE WAY TO LANTAU ISLAND WHERE DISNEYLAND IS LOCATED OK!
