December 7, 2010. Hong Kong Disneyland family guide, Part 2.

Originally, I thought "Hong Kong Disneyland Family Guide with Detailed Photos" would only need one post. Otherwise it would feel like I was introducing the flower bed downstairs from my home...
But I dragged things out for too long, so now we need an encore to introduce Tomorrowland, which I did not mention at all yesterday.
Before Entering: Dad Pays The Bill
Before entering the park, let us first admire the impressive posture of a father signing the bill with heroic flair ~.~
That said, the sun was blazing today...not suitable for taking portraits.
Scenery, however, looked pretty good, so I took a few more photos.
Once Shanghai also builds a Disneyland in 2014, we probably will not come back here again...
Tomorrowland: Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters
Tomorrowland's main attraction: Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters.
Bzzzz~~~
Whoosh~~whoosh~~whoosh~~~
Partners, stay alert...another wave of enemies is coming!!
Zap~zap~~zap~~~look at my laser beam~~~
"You saved us. We will be forever grateful."
This is a shooting game where you sit in a ride vehicle, hold a laser gun, and enter space to fight monsters.
It was actually pretty fun ^.^
Bumper Cars And Space Mountain
After coming out, I took Lisa to line up for the bumper cars.
From outside it looked like nobody was there, but inside we ended up waiting for ages...
Honestly, this attraction was not fun at all.
If you are short on time, you can skip it directly.
Also, one more major Tomorrowland attraction: Space Mountain. In plain language, it is a roller coaster.
Back in the day, I was not even afraid of a 75-meter bungee jump.
But this time, after riding it with Lisa, she came out excitedly saying she wanted to ride again...while I almost threw up milk @.@'"
Sigh...for this one, when passing by with kids, silently walking past and pretending not to see it may be the best decision~~~
Now, Some Cute Photos
After all that fighting, lining up, screaming, and draining Dad's stamina, let us look at some cute photos ^.^
Look at how cute Belle was. Even though we played with the gingerbread character for quite a while, the visitors behind us still smiled along happily ^.^
Mickey's 3D Animated Film
Then we crossed the castle again to watch Mickey's 3D animated film.
This 3D film was also edited together from several well-known Disney animated movie scenes.
With water spraying and wind blowing during the show, it completely pulled people into the story ^.^
It was getting late...about time to head home.
After taking Belle for one last Dumbo ride, while waiting for Mom to take Lisa on Winnie the Pooh one more time...
Belle was completely wiped out @.@'"
Saying Goodbye To Disneyland
Come on...let us reluctantly say goodbye to Disneyland~~~
After this day and a half, we had more or less covered the things we wanted to play, the things the kids would remember, and the things Dad wanted to pretend not to see.
Taking kids to Disneyland is like this. You cannot follow a guide and clear the park like a game. But if you slow down and let the kids linger a little longer in each small surprise, it becomes the part of the trip that feels most like a memory.
