Day 55 - Hong Kong Disneyland
01 September, 2011
Well, it's day 55 today and that means it's the last full day of our holiday, but, before we head for home there was still time for one more activity. So for our final hurrah, headed off to Hong Kong Disneyland. The Hong Kong metro system runs past our front door, and connects directly to Disneyland, so deciding how to get there was pretty easy for us. The trip took about 45 minutes, and required us to travel on three different subway lines. The last line is a Disneyland specific line, and the train was designed around this, with Mickey mouse shaped windows, and statues of characters on the train. When we got to the ticket queue, we were surprised how few people there were there, as we just about walked straight in.
The first thing we did was head to ""Tomorrow Land", where we went on a Buzz lightyear ride. The idea of the ride was that you had to hit targets with your laser as you travelled through the ride. At the end of the ride, we found that Mazz had soundly beaten all the boys. After this we moved onto an automobile driving ride, followed by lot of photos with Mickey, Donald, Goofy, Buzz and other Disney characters. Then we headed across to Tarzans tree house, before stopping for a bite to eat.
After lunch, we took our places along the main street, and watched the grand parade of stars and characters go by. After the parade, we saw the lion king show, which we followed up with the jungle boat ride. It was starting to get late so we started to head towards the gate, but decided there was still time for another "Buzz lightyear" ride to see if the boys could regain their honour. - Well they didn't, nor did they on the subsequent three additional tries. Well done Mazz, you are a Buzz lightyear legend. Being soundly beaten, we said goodbye to Disneyland. We then took the train and headed for home, stopping by the markets for one last shopping visit.
