Disney Land Part 1

Back in 2010 we headed to Disney World Florida and we had a great time. The girls have always wanted to go back. Well they got the chance (kind of) to visit, but in Hong Kong. We got up early and headed out to Lantau Island by Metro to Disney Land. The Disney magic started the minute we got on the Disney express from Sunny Bay. The Metro windows were Mickey shape and each carriage had beautiful statues of Disney Characters, even the station floor was sparkly!

Once we arrived Peter purchased our tickets and he gave us each our character. Unfortunately I was given the dinosaur from Toy Story!!

As it was December time Christmas was very evident, and trees, wreaths and more sparkle than you could shake a fairy wand at was everywhere!

enough said really!

  You are never too old for candy floss! Where's mine!

Time to meet Mickey and the gang! The girls didn't bother with Mickey but Izzy was keen to meet Minnie, Lilly had fun with Pluto and Peter had too meet his chum Goofy! Whilst I tried to grab some photos of them all having fun.

 This last photo was taken by one of the Disney staff. We were picked to queue jump and be presented with a gift. The girls were chuffed with their huge sheet of stickers.

As always so much fun is had at Disney, I have lots more to share and we will definitely be going back as we still have worlds we missed!

Thanks for stopping by, we love to hear from you, so do post a comment.

Yikes, I hadn't realized it had been so long since I had updated. Not even sure where to start!
After a month of living at Harbour Plaza North Point we moved into our house mid December, and our container made it just in time for Christmas!

We live in Sai Kung in the New Territories in a 3 storey village house. We have a Hong Kong luxury of a beautiful garden! We overlook the sea and mountains and we really do feel blessed to be here. I will dedicate a post to our house soon!

Our first Christmas was a very different experience. Very quiet. no TV, but we did have some crimbo DVD's to watch, of which Elf came out tops for the festive season!
I did manage to cook a Christmas dinner with all the trimmings! And we visited the lights and Tiffany Town for some festive spirit!
As some of you may be aware I am slightly Tiffany obsessed!

As you can see, I had fun photographing lights, trees and bokeh!


Come January the girls started their new schools, although Lilly had a brief introduction before Christmas.
Its now nearly the end of January and we have some routine in our lives. The girls have school. Peter is getting his teeth into work and I'm tootling around this big house on my own!
Have found my love again for cooking and baking. I am menu planning each week, working my way through Jamie Oliver (ssshhh dont tell peter), Nigella and Lorraine Pascale!

Its funny though how our staples have changed so much. Pasta, potatoes and sausages are no longer a cheap staple, but more a luxury! Today in my cupboards you will find fresh ginger, coriander, lemongrass, noodles and rice!

Well I think this is enough to leave you with today! I will play catch up over the next few days. We have Disney Land, Po Lin Monestry, Sai Kung Fishing Village and so much more to share with you.

With love,
