    Thanks to HKDL, we spent magical 2D1N in Disneyland Park as well as Disneyland Resort Hotel. Hong Kong Disneyland Resort is located on Lantau Island, and is accessible via an array of convenient transportation options.

    We took the MTR and interchange for the Disneyland Resort Line. The Disney train is so cute complete with its Mickey Mouse handrails and windows.

    day 31
    This year Minnie surprises Mickey with Duffy the Disney Bear whose spirit of giving magically brings toys to life. So for this Christmas season, the Possession of Toy walk happens at 630pm everyday.

    Minnie has made Mickey a special toy named Duffy so he will never be lonely on his adventure. So Duffy is also HKDL’s special character this Christmas.

    It was already my third time to HKDL but everytime there are new surprises and new features waiting to be discovered. As Walt Disney said himself, “Disneyland will never be completed. It will continue to grow as long as there is imagination left in the world.”

    HKDL itself is magical; even the staffs are so amiable, friendly and cheerful. It is a fun place for all ages!
