Hong Kong Disneyland

We returned recently from a trip to Hong Kong Disneyland. Brooke and Collin had the week off school for National Holiday.

It is quite similar to The Magic Kingdom in Florida or Disneyland in So Cal., but smaller. We enjoyed and were glad to experience Disney in Asia. I took a few pictures of some of the interesting differences.

First look, this is just a typical scene of a few Princesses waiting for the Main Street parade to begin, but take a closer look, they are mostly little Asian faces. Mark and I thought this was cute, it's the same but yet a little different. In the middle of the parade, the parade paused and these sweet girls all were able to dance in the street with some of the characters - it was fun.

Here is one of the menu's in the park, we struggled a bit to eat. Food and waiting in line were the two biggest differences that come to mind at the park. In China, if there is space, someone will fill it. Translation: you can't leave a few inches between you and the people in front of you or you could very well loose your spot in line. It's everyone for themselves; common courtesy lacks a bit.

Could not get the kids to try this place... fried fish with tomato sauce, not going to happen. We managed OK but the selection was pretty limited. I found fried chicken cubes thinking they would be chicken nugget type food and we think it may have been duck, but we just called it mystery meat. Oh well, the ice cream was good afterwards.
