Disneyland

Early this month, I went to Disneyland Hong Kong with my family. We've already been there before but its been years since we went there, so we just had to go back to Disneyland. You never too old for Disneyland, right?

So we went out at 10AM, and straight to the nearest MTR Station. Its not that hard getting to Disneyland Hong Kong because there are many transportation that could help you to get there. I recommend use a MTR, because its easier especially for tourist. Also you will ride the special Disney Train (not sure if that was the name, lol), that looks so cute and fun and its good for taking pictures.

Spotted not-so-hidden Mickey on the train!!!

When we finally arrived in Disneyland, we just had to do something that every tourist do. Taking pictures.

Entrance at Disneyland Hong Kong.

We already bought tickets a day before and you definitely should buy tickets few days before or book a tickets online. Why? because it could save you lots of time not queuing to buy tickets and maybe you could get a special discount for tourist who book online, like I did :)

After getting in to the theme park, we took few more pictures. Then we rushed to Space Mountain. Space Mountain is one of the many famous roller coaster rides in Disneyland, and other Disneyland around the world usually have Space Mountain. The reason why we choose to ride a roller coaster first is because when you visit theme park, usually the most visited rides are thrill rides like roller coaster and when the theme park gets crowded, the thrill rides gets crowded too. In Disneyland, usually it took 1 to 2 hours tops, for the queue when its crowded. So since we don't want to waste our time for queuing, we should definitely ride roller coaster first, or you can use a fast pass. In Disneyland, there is a fast pass. You could exchange your park ticket to a fast pass and take the ride that you wanted on a designated time. But you only have one chance, so use your ticket wisely.

But luckily, it wasn't crowded at that time. The queue was 15 minutes, so we pretty much happy about that, and since me and my brother LOVE thrill rides, we even took the ride again.

Like other Disneyland, the Disneyland Hong Kong are divided into few area. The Space Mountain are located in Tomorrow Land. There is also Fantasyland where "it's a small world" and Dumbo the Flying Elephant are located, and Adventureland that has Tarzan's Tree House and Jungle River Cruise. But there are some attraction that only Disyneland Hong Kong have.

First is Grizzly Glutch. Open in 2012, its a western theme roller coaster that has some few surprise during the ride. It was really fun and for family, i think its rather safe to take the kids to try the ride. Because its not too thrilling but definitely a fun roller coaster. If you want some spoiler about the ride, you could watch this review video about the Grizzly Glutch. But i tell you, you'll lose the surprise.

Then there is Mystic Point that was just open last year. Its a magnetic ride and i was quite surprise with the technology because i've never seen a ride like that. It was fun and very suitable for family. Also its very unique and I like it how they made all the small details in the ride. Here is the review video about Mystic Point.

Also, there is the new Toy Story theme area. It has some few good attraction like RC Racer, Slinky Dog Spin and Toy Soldier Parachute Drop. I tried the RC Racer and it was fun. But it was quite a short time.

Its not the end until you see fireworks in Disneyland. Every Disneyland has a firework event before closing and you should definitely see it. When you want to enjoy the firework, you should get the best spot to see it. It will be so crowded because everyone will be in one place to see the fireworks, so you should try find a good spot way before the fireworks starts. I usually try to find a place an hour before, even then a few people already taking the good spot, so you should hurry up. But thanks to the good spot i found an hour before the fireworks starts, I could take a few pictures of the fireworks and could end my day in Disneyland with a beautiful fireworks.

Now, for the tips going to Disneyland Hong Kong:

• Even though you could buy the ticket at Disneyland, i recommend to buy the ticket online before you went to Hong Kong, or at least a day before. Because it will save you time and maybe there will be a special discount if you buy it online.
• For getting to Disneyland Hong Kong, there are many public transportation like MTR, bus or taxi. But i recommend to use a MRT because for me, its easier rather than using a bus, and cheaper than using a taxi. Also, when you traveling to Hong Kong, you should buy an Octopus Card. Its a card that can be use for payments on public transportation, grocery store, and even few restaurants in Hong Kong. Its really convenient to have it. You can buy it when you arrive at the airport or in a MTR Costumer Service Center located in every MTR Station. 
• When you visited Disneyland on a very crowded day, you should plan which ride that you want to go first, and since the thrill rides usually took the longest queue, you should take that first. Or use the fast pass to save more time.
• Finally, when you wanted to see the fireworks in Disneyland, go find a good spot to see the fireworks way before the show start. I recommend to look an hour before. But if you're bored waiting, how about asking your parents to sit there first, so you could go to the other attraction :)
