Hong Kong Trip (Dtd 1/12/08 - 5/12/08)

This post is way long over due....I had been too lazy to upload the photos and suddenly I felt the mood to post and so here I am....

Our family, together wif my cousin's family, went to HK for 5 days. After this trip, we realized tat it is still better to go on our own rather than to be a tour guide....sometimes, it's hard to go to the places tat we wanted as we need to consider our cousin's family interest too...hmmmm...so I tend to be caught in between my hb and my cousin's side and its really hard to please both sides :( but nevertheless, we still had some enjoyable times when we went to DisneyLand and The Peak.

A side note abt Amadeus: He is so funny....He had this habit of only pooing at home and since we were at HK, he only pooed when we were back in the hotel room at nite....the funny part: when we opened the hotel door, he would quickly dashed into the room and went straight to the bedside table where the telephone was, squatted down and did his business....very very funni...it was as though he did not want ppl to know wat he was doing...hahaha...

Overall, I tink Amadeus had the most fun as his 2 cousins would always tink of ways to play wif him n made him laugh and he had fun running n playing at the DisneyLand :) We will be back again when our 2nd son is older :)

Will post pics of the 3 main attractions tat we went: DisneyLand, The Peak and Ocean Park

At DisneyLand, we didn't managed to take any pics wif any cartoon characters cos the timing was not rite...the queue was too long n we decided to take later or Amadeus was sleeping...so I feel so banged at the end of the day when I realized tat we had no pics at all!!!

And...there are still some rides that we didn't went to play as Amadeus was sleeping...haiz....and even more banged was the balloon tat we bought for Amadeus was not able to board the plane back wif us to S'pore...Such a pity and it costs us abt SGD20.

A musical show tat we watched...

Not long after the show, Amadeus had his 2nd nap...

All the cartoon characters were behind this fountain for us to take one last pics and we missed the chance as Amadeus was taking his nap and when he woke up, all the characters were gone to prepare for the parade...so sad...

Amadeus woke up just in time to watch the parade...







After the parade, we stayed ard for a musical show and the fireworks...

A part of the musical...

The castle lighted up so beautifully after the musical...
The fireworks was very spectacular but Amadeus was not interested at all...below is a part of the fireworks...

At The Peak




------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- At Ocean Park, the weather was super duper hot and there were so many slopes and stairs....really not a gd place to bring stroller and toddlers. There was also not much rides that Amadeus can ride on...the only ride we took was to bring us to the top and look at the surrounding views.

Amadeus afraid to sit on the seal...
