Early next day, we settled our hotel check-out, had our breakfast in the room before we attacked Disneyland once again. Our luggage expanded by so much that we even bought 2 mini luggage trolleys for our little 'J's, so we had 3 extra bags in total haha! Daddy was trying so hard to curb our spending but failed hehe...We reached Disneyland around 11a.m and planned our rides.
We took the rides which we missed the day before, watched the famous Lion King live musical show, took Tarzan's boat ride and visited the forest, watched the hilarious 4D Mickey show.
Jovan found wearing the 4D glasses so funny and he kept meddling with it. He simply looked hilarious with the glasses on :)
Of course, Disneyland visit couldn't have been made complete without memorable shots with the various Disney characters. We took the shots with Pluto, Mickey & Minnie, Winnie the Pooh etc. The kids simply kissed and hugged when they saw the characters, especially the last Mickey and Minnie duo which we queued so badly after the second time we viewed the parade. Our time calculation was perfect.
After our final shot with Mickey and Minnie, dear and I each carried our little 'J's and rushed to take the shuttle bus back to hotel. Luckily we made it in time at 5p.m. Had a fresh change of clothes and we were all ready to depart for the airport!
Bye Hong Kong
We continued to savour great Hong Kong delicacies dimsum, egg tarts etc at the airport. We had ample time as our flight was delayed by an hour, so we did last minute shopping once again. Bought more wife pastries and egg rolls as the 4 of us finished the egg rolls which we entrusted our tour guide to buy before we could even bring back to Singapore haha.....
On the return flight, there wasn't much problem as the kids were provided Mickey toy kits and after having a great meal, both soon dozed off as it was already 12.35a.m by the time we touched down in Singapore. Both were really exhausted that they slept through the next morning! Luckily, our parents were there to fetch us and helped us with the luggage.
After thoughts
This was our first flight experience as a family. Many complain travelling with the kids is a hassle. That includes my dear hubby who complains at times too. Perhaps we face stares, snobs or jeers from passer-bys when our kids throw tantrums and shout for no reason in the public. However, this is definitely something which I believe all parents have to embrace. I do not deny the inconvenience but it's another kind of experience which money can't be bought. This is what I called family blissfulness. From another angle, cherish family blissfulness firmly in your hands cos this may not be within reach for all.
I would still plan more family vacations together be it distant or near, as long as we are together. Nothing beats more than having all your loved ones with you. Dear and I are already contemplating to bring the kids back next Jun for a free and easy trip. Hong Kong, await for our return :)
