Our Trip To HongKong and Disneyland (Feb'11)

Yay! It was a dream come true for our little Mia :-) and also for me.. hehehhe. I'd like to share some of our memories while we were there and also some travel tips to those who plan on traveling there in the near future (especially with 2 small children).

Day 01: 12 Feb'11, JB-SIN-HKG
We flew to Hong Kong via Tiger Airways, which took off via Singapore's Changi Budget Terminal at  1.40pm.  It was our 1st time on-board Tiger. Everything was in SGD. So, our meals and drinks on-board the plane was obviously expensive (after 2.4 conversion rate.. hehhe). The food choices was very poor if you compare with the selections that AirAsia has and it took quite sometime to arrive i.e.15-20mins. The attendants goes down the isle taking meal orders and collects payment dulu, and once they are done, they reheat the food packets containing the 'lauk' then put the lauk on d serving container with freshly cooked rice.

By the way, Malaysian's traveling to Hong Kong and intend to stay less than 90days does not require Visa to enter. We arrived at Hong Kong International Airport at around 5.40pm. After going thru the normal immigration process, we head for Marriott Skycity Airport counter and was shuttled to their hotel.

 
Day 02: 13 Feb'11, Disneyland
Woke up early for B'fast cuz we wanted to catch the only hotel shuttle service to Disneyland at 10.00am. Tonite, we'll be staying at Disney's Hollywood Hotel.


It was a school holiday cum post Chinese Near holiday and the hotel was packed!! We decided to leave our bags in their storage room and head straight to Disneyland via the resort's free shuttle service. It was drizzling and cold. Thank god we came prepared!!


We had umbrellas, stroller cover (for rain & wind), winter jackets, hats, gloves etc.. Btw, we purchased a 2-day Disneyland pass at D. Hollywood Hotel.


We planned our trip around the park, so that we could catch all the show and rides. Left right after the fireworks at about 9pm with everybody else. Long lines at MTR and shuttle bus. The hotel room was quite spacious, with 2 queen sized beds. 


Day 03: 14 Feb'11, Disneyland /Tsim Tsa Tsui
We checked out from the hotel at 11am, left our bags at the storage room and headed straight to Disneyland again. Today's weather is cloudy, no rain!! but colder than yesterday.. approx 11 degrees.
