The last 2 days were spent in Disneyland Park and there&#8217;s no prize for guessing who had the biggest fun there. \ud83d\ude00 Honestly &#8230; if not because of wanting Fitzand to have big fun &#8230; we probably had left the place in half a day. Don&#8217;t get me wrong &#8230; I&#8217;m a big fan of Disneyland but for those who has been to this one in Hong Kong, you probably know how &#8216;scary&#8217; it gets with many &#8216;not very nice&#8217; tourists. All the queue jumping, loud (very!) talking, stampedes at the rides &#8230; are just way too much for us to take. The last trip here many years ago was not much better but unfortunately I didn&#8217;t have many annual leaves to spare to make a trip to Tokyo this time round. A trip to the one in US is even more not possible with only a week to spare.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fuzzyeyeballs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/fitzand-hong-kong-2011\/Fitzand---HK-Trip-2011--23.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"397\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Nevermind the headache (now that it is over), Fitzand sure had a blast! After tons of rides &amp; yummies &#8230; he is grinning from ear to ear now.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fuzzyeyeballs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/fitzand-hong-kong-2011\/fitzand-hk-trip-2011-03.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"397\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">While I usually hate lugging along my DSLR for trips, I had to bring it along this trip because I wanted to shoot using my Lensbaby Composer Pro + Sweet 35 optic &#8230; but so far I only shot a few with this combo. Most of the time I was busy bringing Fitzand for rides and taking some snapshots of him.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fuzzyeyeballs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/fitzand-hong-kong-2011\/Fitzand---HK-Trip-2011--28.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"397\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Fitzand&#8217;s favorite was the car ride as you can see from the photo below. Every time we go on that ride, he&#8217;ll be the one navigating and he&#8217;ll deliberately not hold the steering wheel and let the car bump all over and start laughing non stop. Yeah &#8230; I was sitting beside him laughing along like a madman. \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fuzzyeyeballs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/fitzand-hong-kong-2011\/Fitzand---HK-Trip-2011--19.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"397\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Of course not forgetting getting him some soft toys that he wanted. If you are wondering why he went for the two &#8216;girls&#8217; (in photo below), that&#8217;s because those were the ones not in his &#8216;collection&#8217;. The bigger Mickey was a present I bought him right before we left the park. He then said &#8216;bye bye&#8217; to the park and so did I &#8230; just that I did it with a grin. This will be the last time I&#8217;m checking Disneyland Hong Kong. \ud83d\ude1b<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fuzzyeyeballs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/fitzand-hong-kong-2011\/fitzand-hk-trip-2011-31.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"679\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.fuzzyeyeballs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/gallery\/fitzand-hong-kong-2011\/fitzand-hk-trip-2011-39.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"450\" height=\"678\" \/><\/p>ngg_shortcode_0_placeholder","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Checking out of Disneyland Hotel in 2 hours and we&#8217;ll be heading to Tsim Tsa Tsui where we&#8217;ll spend the rest of our week-long vacation.
