Disneyland – Hong Kong

Oh yes. An absolute highlight of our trip. We went to Disneyland. And surprisingly Disney gives old people (senior citizens) a real break in price. It cost $12.50 each for a full day in the park. Top that in Florida!

We took a taxis from our ship. As we entered the park I took a photo. What a place. It felt like home.


The start of the park is virtually identical to either Florida or California Magic Kingdom. But then there are many differences. Hong Kong took ideas from most of the parks in Disneyworld. There is Toy Story from Hollywood Studios. Of course most is from Magic Kingdom.


The first show we saw was very different from the states. It was a story including most of the famous Disney stories. It seemed like it was meant to introduce the Disney stories for people not familiar with Disney. It was a musical and a movie and everything else Disney could figure out. And it was in air-conditioning and lasted 40 minutes. We needed that.

The Jungle cruise was very different from Florida. They actually said it could be scary. There was lots of fire and water unlike in Florida. There were still terrible jokes. But it was different.

Toy Story was fun. There was a new ride called RS Ride I think. It made me almost sick to watch. There was also a Slinky Dog roller coaster. Many more stories but they will come later.
