My all time date! :>
Chinese for dinner at Mann Hann. OMNOM!!! :)
—-
Wasn’t able to take photos of the other moments cos we were having so much fun! Hahaha Plus, that’s proof we had so much more we were busy doing like discussions and kulitan and laughter. :)) It’s a puzzle how we’re still like this, but it’s good, and we intend to stay this way for as long as we possibly can. :>
As I said, 7 on a Monday turned out to be so AWESOME!♡

Some photos I grabbed from: Edd Palapal
How can you not help but reminisce in this magical place built for kids of all ages?! As a kid, we (my sister Jill and I) grew up watching tapes (VHS) of the Disney adventures in Disneyland and we’ve memorized all the scenes and songs to a tee (seriously)! We also saw photos of our parents from their different Disneyland trips (without us! Rawr!) and we were told of their adventures there too. All the more reason we wanted to go see and experience the fun of being a kid with Mickey and the gang for ourselves. Well, this day, mine has come true! :D
Our pass! :))
Getting there… :)
That little taste of what’s to come! :>
I’m as excited and as happy as her! We really were channeling our inner kiddo-ness. :))
This is it!!!
Her precious, Stitch! :))
My precious. Too precious indeed! :>
Now, it wouldn’t be normal if we didn’t do this, right? :)))
The castle of all castles! What every girl dreams of as a child.♥
On Ice’s request. Pew. Pew. Pew!!! :))
This, for me is iconic! In every video and photos we have, the teacups were a part of it. I couldn’t pass up on the opportunity to take a photo. :) Oh. No, I did not ride it. I dislike the idea of putting myself in a situation where I get dizzy. Yes, I don’t ride carousels too (I had my fair share and I’d like to leave it at that).
Because I love Ariel! :)
Waiting for her wish to come true…
It’s the whole gang coming together on a special day! :))
It was then time for us to eat…
Obviously enjoying her bread and pasta!
The rest of our food. :))

Here in Disneland, kids dress the part! SO ADORABLE!!!
Making me inggit with her double scoop ice cream! :(
And then it went cuckoo!
Everybody went out to greet us…
and tell us the time! :>
We are—- enjoying our time here! :D
We came out to play! :))
Ready to zoom and vroom with you RC!
Built for kids of all ages! :D
They’re here to fight for us. Right, men? Haha
Their performance should aptly be marked with nothing but a star! :)
Parade time! I can’t post all floats so maybe just 3 more… —-The princesses and their giant swan. *sigh*
You all know who this is! Perfect time to ROAR!
It’s 626 on a float! All experimental. Haha
Oooooh… :D
Nighttime… as spectacular as you could expect… :>
THE [ICONIC] CASTLE. The one that started it all…♥
The night ended with breathtaking fireworks (all in video; might post soon) that left us all in awe and sighing the whole time! It was all lovely and pretty and grand! Just what we all expected and more! :>
Everything here, today, since the moment we set foot into its lovely grounds, was pure fun, excitement and happiness! Trust me when I say, it’s never too late to be a kid in Disneyland. Definitely one for the books!♥
22MARCH2012
Longtime plan, and to my surprise, we get going on the 21st! WHEEE!♥
We already want to go back! We actually wanted to stay. Hahaha
From last night (dinner get together for my birthday salubong), I really didn’t have any time left to sleep. All I did was prepare and assess my luggage. Oh, and I pranced around the house getting ready. A little panicky due to time constraint, but obviously, we made it in time. :)
License to board. :))
Excited, but more on the sleepy part at this point. After we took off, I really did sleep. I only woke up when it was time for me to sign things and to eat.
Curry chicken + coffee = 2nd breakfast. Haha
Miles above.
We have arrived!
Went straight to our hotel, took cover and rested. We slept for a few hours and readied ourselves to leave and tour Hong Kong! Ultra excited now! :))
We went to where everyone and everything’s alive ‘til late night. Where else, but at Mong Kok! Woot!
Got the picture? :))
We got tired and hungry, and since we’re already there, we thought of trying street food, so we did!
Fall in line to get served.
Enjoying what we’re chewing. :))
Fierce eating. Hahaha I just had to. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! :D
We also tried their milk tea and mango shakes.
I enjoyed the HK style milk tea and Ice loved their mango jelly (the healthy one, which she only realized after taking a good sip). :)
We kept on roaming around, walking up until we don’t know where we are, and it was quite fun to get lost ‘cause that’s when you know it’s an adventure!
So then after looking left to right, we hit the mother load! Wuhooo!!!
Look what we found! :D
and then we see Happy Lemon! hahaha You know what happens next.. :))
When we knew for sure that we’re already tired, we called it a night. We went back to the hotel, and got ready for some serious sleep.
We packed the same kind of jammies! :)) Good night! :*
It really was a HAPPY BIRTHDAY!♥♥♥
Thank you, Ta! I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!!! :*
