Hello everyone,
At the end of November Jon and I travelled to Asia for a multi-stop trip to Tokyo and Hong Kong. We started in Hong Kong, flew to Japan, then flew back to Hong Kong before coming back home. In this part of my report on our travels, I will be sharing with you our adventures at Hong Kong Disneyland on both ends of the trip, which ended up stretching from the end of November, until the first week of December. I am actually going to break up this Hong Kong Disneyland report into several smaller parts, as it will be quite long. Here, in part one, I'll talk about the resort overall, resort hotels, and Main Street USA (including characters and entertainment on Main Street).
During the first part of our stay, we actually stayed in a hotel in the city, and used the opportunity to visit various places in the city. You can read my report for that, which I published this week, on my Two Lost Boys blog, here. On the second part of our stay in Hong Kong we stayed on site at Disney's Hollywood Hotel. Between the two ends of the trip, we ended up having a total of four days at the resort and in the park.
Rather than jump around, telling you everything in the random order in which we did them, I'm going to group different themes together to keep everything organised and less confused.

Yesterday saw the premier of the brand new day parade at Disneyland Park in California. Soundsational is the much anticipated replacement for the former beloved Parade of Dreams.
A Magic Kingdom park without a regular day parade appeared to be a new low in standards at the Resort, and fans have waited a full two years for their wishes to be realised. [ Read More... ] |

Hi all,
Today’s big news is of course the press conference over at
the Magic Kingdom regarding the Fantasyland expansion (amongst other things).
Besides a couple of new rides, and the new theming and areas
all of which sound really awesome, the character news to come out of this is
that the Snow White attraction will be closing in order to make way for a brand
new Princess meet ‘n’ greet “attraction”, to replace the Hall of Fame, which
closes in a couple of weeks’ time. Disney are compensating for the closure of
the Snow White attraction by of course adding a brand new Snow White themed
ride - the Mine Coaster, not to mention the new Ariel attraction! To put it
simply, they are getting rid of the Hall of Fame and the Scary Adventures, but in
their place getting an awesome new roller coaster and a new meet ‘n’ greet
area! [ Read More... ] |
