{China} Day 3

January 7, 2013

( My Chinese 30th birthday)

 We never thought about going to HongKong Disneyland until Jeremy saw something for it on our flight over. Dad  had meetings all day Monday, and one in the afternoon in HongKong and he didn't really want to go to Disney, so it was the perfect time for us. 

Dad dropped us of at the ferry port in Macau and told us, "Good luck!". After we got to HongKong he sent us a text telling us to find the train station and buy an "octopus card". Easier said than done! After we finally found the train station we were pros. We even had to switch trains twice. But we finally made it to Disney at about noon.

Jenny and Jeremy insisted that I get a birthday button and all day long the Disney employees told me "Happy Birthday" and gave me lots of stickers and treats! All of our food was definitely an adventure in itself. We were never really sure about what we were ordering or about what we were going to get. 

They LOVE their pressed squid there! It is like our churros, everyone has them! We tried our best to avoid the stands and those who had them because they were very stinky! We did find honey mustard popcorn which I was nervous about, but it was quite tasty.

The characters there were SUPER friendly too. They danced with us and hugged and kissed us.

 The parade was fun! A lot of the old school movies are popular there. And Stitch and Pooh Bear are their favorites!

 We LOVED  Toy Story Land!  

 The R.C. Racer was our favorite ride!! We hung out at Disney until about 7 before we headed back on the train. We met up with Dad. The train station is connected to a mall which is connected to the ferry port. I got to pick dinner since it was my birthday. I picked Oliver's Super Sandwiches. We had orange chocolate instead of birthday cake. It was pretty good!

Then we made it just in time to take the 10 o'clock ferry and have a nice couple mile walk home.

A VERY FUN and LONG day!!
