Hong Kong - Day 3 (Disneyland)

We woke up at 6:30am just to take peek through the hotel window and found this... After 2 days of continuous rain, finally we can see blue skies and the SUN!

The day started with a bowl of hot smooth porridge at Mui Kee Congee located in the Fa Yuen St market building near our hotel. I got to know about this place from this blog. Excellent porridge! Do notice the misleading floor number... its stated 3 but in Chinese, it is level 4...

We ordered a Fish Belly porridge (Wan yu lam chuk, I have no idea what type of fish wan yu is though...) and a bowl of fish skin. The fish skin is a cold dish, its eaten with some ginger, spring onions and some soy sauce.

The porridge is really smooth and sweet! The porridge based tasted as if it was cooked with charcoal (my mum used to bowl soup with charcoal, food cooked with charcoal has this special unforgettable fragrant taste). The fish was very fresh and it came with a handsome amount too.

There was a dimsum stall at the back, so we went to try out as well. The lotus leaf rice (hor yip fan) was nice, the siew mai was a bit salty.

We went around the market and had a few snapshots here and there :)

The market was quite clean and didn't smell that bad unlike the market we have back home. The fruits, vegetables and meat as fresh, especially the saefood, most of it are still alive and swimming!

After the hearty breakfast, we were on our way to Disneyland :)
At the Sunny Bay interchange, Disney has their own train with Mickey windows :)

There was still a long walk before reaching the ticketing counter. We passed by a maze on our left, fountain ahead, turn right and we were at the ticketing counter. It was Halloween so there were additional decos and figures.

There are basically 3 lands - Tomorrowland, Adventureland and Fantasyland. Since it was Halloween, there were haunted houses in all the 3 parks :)
Fantasyland:

Adventureland:

It was really scary because the figures in the haunted houses were actually Disney staffs in costumes! Space Mountain in Tomorrowland is a fun indoor roller-coaster ride :)
The people there were really helpful, if you go as a couple, they offered to take your photos using your camera free of charge :)
We also went for the Lion King show, also indoor. It was really hot outside... we needed to cool down with some aircond :)

Fortunately we were able to catch the Disney on Parade at 4:00pm because it started raining again after 5:00pm... we missed the Live Highschool Musical show and the Halloween Parade... what a waste :(

We spent quite a lot of time in the shops looking for souveniers as it was raining heavily outside...
There were quite a variety of food there. Averagely priced at HKD50... at that price, we opted for Western. Portion was fairly big, quality not that bad considering that its still a food court :)
Grilled chicken and Fish and Chips:

The rain stopped just on time for the 8:00pm closing fireworks... spectacular!

We actually missed quite a number of events due to the rain and very fortunate that we did not get sick :)
We had some curry fishballs on the way back to our hotel, its between HKD6-8 depending on the shop. They are pretty elastic, not too bad :)
