So I haven't reported much because I've doing repeat things with the family that I've already reported on. Except, however, HONG KONG DISNEY. Of course we went. And this Disney was a whole new bag - its a new park (so everything is sparkling and new and the animatronic things look so real), it has good food (relatively speaking - no curry popcorn, no tortilla wrapped hotdogs), and it's miniature - it's two main attractions are Space Mountain (we went four times) and It's A Small World (we went once). And despite its theme that gets permanently imprinted in your brain, this version is pretty cute because they've incorporated the Disney characters into the areas of the world that they hail from - you have no idea how excited I was to see Pocahontas. For real. HK Disney doesn't have any of the other staples - no Splash Mountain, no Pirates, no Thunder Mountain. However, we still had so much fun. There's just something about Disney that makes you feel happy. Also what makes you feel happy - the ginormous fans they have in the waiting areas for each ride. ;)
Mostly it's just so good to have the fam here. We particularly enjoy the "face to face" looks we get when just the girls are together. Our Hong Kongian friends start with one face, then move to the next, then the next, then the next - and then we go, "Nope, we're not related. Our mirror faces are in your imagination. So are our matching noses."
