Hong Kong Disneyland Part II

A continuation of my Hong Kong Disneyland trip from my second photo diary~


It wasn't quite sunny that day, which was good because I could walk around the park without sweating like a dog's arm pit but bad because this picture would have turned out so much better if the sky wasn't grey.


The teacup ride looks so enchanting, doesn't it? It's like a festival in there.


Look how lovely this rainbow bokeh is! It's from my favorite ride..


Autopia. My poor nephew threw a fit when it started drizzling. He and his mom (my eldest sister) had to get his raincoat, but the usher wouldn't allow them to get back into their position in the line if they left. And he'd been waiting for an hour in line! Luckily, a kinder usher replaced that crap-face when they got back, and allowed him to enjoy the ride without another hour's wait.


Halloween-themed Mickey Mouse merchandise and decorations. Disneyland always has such great displays. I would have loved to see it during Christmas time too!



The scent of caramel and chocolate-flavored popcorn is enticing. Your nose can smell it from a few yards away. Couldn't resist buying myself a tumbler!



Why yes, I do have freakishly large hands. And no, I was not able to purchase that Stitch-be-bitin'-ma-head hat. I regret that decision to this day . . .

As I Watched the Flower Wither



These photos were taken on my way to the hospital. You probably have an idea how bad the traffic can get in manila, most of these lights were from cars, ha ha. (I think these blurred light effects are called bokeh.) I didn't know that the raindrops would help to produce such nice photos.

That week was quite draining for my family and I, going back and forth to the hospital, socializing with relatives, staying up late and what-not. I am just glad that I was able to be there for my grandmother. It's great to know that even though she was in a coma, she could still hear us talking to her. At times, tears would accumulate at the corner of her eyes when we spoke to her.
