Chinese proverb

Hong Kong Disneyland

 
 
 
Day 1:  April 19th
After a four hour ride from Guangzhou to Hong Kong in a mini van packed with 4 adults, 2 children, 9 suitcases and 4 backpacks...with a 45 minute wait to get through customs at the border...we made it to the Disney Hollywood Hotel!  We quickly checked in and dropped off our things in the hotel room so we could head to the park for a few hours of magical memories.  We ended the day watching the fireworks from our hotel room. Audra LOVED the fireworks! 
 

 

 
 
 Day 2:  April 20th
We were quite the spectacle today...two American couples with adorable Asian little girls wondering around in matching yellow Disney shirts!  Everywhere we went people looked, stared,  pointed and took our picture.  At first it bothered us a little bit, but then we decided that we would just take their picture when they were taking our picture!  When we had the Disney photographer take our family pictures at the castle there was a group of "paparazzi" behind him taking our picture as well.
Other people seemed genuinely interested in our beautiful girls and our story...and that didn't bother us at all.  If they asked us questions we were happy to answer.
 







 
 
We had dinner at Chef Mickey, which was right in our hotel.  We were a little bummed that they served mostly international dishes.  We have definitely had our fill of rice, noodles and dumplings.  We are craving some good old American comfort food!  We are drooling at the thought of our first meal at home.
