only in hk disneyland

since it is the year of the mouse, we decided to go visit the world's most famous mice - mickey & minnie!

it was a super cold and wet day... but we didn't mind because the park was quite empty. there was no wait for space mountain (can you believe it!) so we rode on it twice. disney decorated the entire park with chinese new year accessories; they made it into a real theme park!

these are some of the things you won't find in any other disneyland parks...

shapes of traditional coin make the mouse head


cny greeting banners

(btw, did you realize that there's no one else on main street? this would never happen to the ones in LA or FL...)

hk disneyland has a "rainy day parade" on stand-by if it rains that day.
each character gets its own raincoat!

to celebrate cny, 8 celebrities each designed a special mickey statue, this one is by the famous clothing designer vivienne tam

(i took pics of the other 7 but didn't post them)

here comes the couple in cny outfits!
