This is the first time Clié and Cleo are taking a plane and they are very excited obviously. We had to wake up at 3:30am as our flight is around sunrise. Although its so early, the girls were clearly very awake and eager to get to Hong Kong Disneyland.
Their first flight.Arriving at Hong Kong Disneyland. The kids could not get any more happier.The tickets looked amazing. Micky Cleo, Minnie Clié, Goofy Dad, Donald Mommy.There was a huge Christmas tree that welcomed visitors.Thepans at Hong Kong Disneyland! This has got to be the cutest family photo yet.Snow White really looks like Snow White. It feels like the animation came alive.To infinity and beyond!! Cleo do like toy story, but generally the whole princess thing is more important to them now, so not too excited about Buzz.They look really cartoony.We waited 45mins to take this photo. But hey, this IS Disneyland… so we waited patiently.The 3D show was fantastic. Cleo jolted in her seat many times as things flew her way. Got to be the best show.At night, the castle was nicely lighted up. So romantic.The princess ball performance came with some nice fireworks.Everynight, there will be a fireworks display, so we waited for it and our wait paid off. Its really nice, but Cleo did not like it due to the loud sounds.Breafast was Disney themed and the kids had great fun. They did not eat alot though, but Pearl and I totally enjoyed breakfast.We took the train out to a nearby outlet mall and our feets were all tired from all the walking.Cleo was excited as we started our half day Hong Kong tour. It was generally nice, but the places that they brought us to buy stuff were really not fun.One of the nicest place to live in Hong Kong would be Repulse Bay. Apparently alot of famous people live there.The girls loved the beautiful environment.The girls all wanted daddy to carry them, but Clié walked all the way. We went to Times Square, but did not go in, but instead walked around the smaller shops nearby.Can clearly see they are having loads of fun. This is when we started the morning, by mid afternoon, they were all tired.Clié is tired. You can see from her face. But she knows she have got to walk on and she did. So so proud of her.The Mr and Mrs characters were so colourful and Cleo stopped to look at them. She is so so cute here.We did go to the Ladies market at Mong Kok and did not buy much. But it was an experience for the kids anyway.They walk until tired already, so stopped to share some M&Ms. They look so sisterly here.With out Leo, Pearl and I would not have met and we would not have our kids. So when in Hong Kong, we had to meet up with our good friends Leo and Fiona. Fiona is now expecting a girl, we are looking forward for them to become parents.

Its Cleo’s birthday weekend and we stayed at Amara Sanctuary. It was a beautiful weekend with absolutely no plans. Its just wake up, have nice breakfast, beach, pool, shower, rest, do nothing, wake up, eat, do nothing, etc.
I’ll beef up with more details later, but now photos first. :)
We’re celebrating Cleo’s birthday early this year and as usual, we’ll always ask the kids what they would like to do for their birthday. Last year Cleo’s was into cars, but this year she wanted balloons and Carebears.
Balloons filled the ceiling
Mommy rented a helium tank and filled the ceiling with pink and white balloons. That was such a sight.
Follow the rainbow
I took some sidewalk chalk and drew directions from the lift door into our house. The idea of rainbows was clearly a thing I had to do as that was such a Carebear thing.
Mommy prepares foodMommy prepares kids snacksCleo displays her carebears
Cleo had loads of Carebears and for her birthday we got her the biggest one.
Cleo adds one more to the family
One of her friend even got her another Carebear. How cute. So now I think there is a small Carebear village in our house. lol…
Clié loves running around and she also like wearing heels. The combination is superbad and many people have came up to tell me so too. So we decided the princess needed a good pair of running shoes.
Its so beautiful right.
Clié's first Nike
I’ve not bought a single Nike product since secondary school and this buy (is not cheap) is something i’m quite happy about.
Was at Botanic Gardens with kids on sunday and many church friends were there too.
It started off nice and breezy and we started playing some group games, but little did we expect it was only 15mins away from a long afternoon shower. Everyone dashed to the nearest shelter and tried their very best to cover all the picnic food and carry them off too.
Oh well, thats that for a fun filled nice afternoon at the Botanic Gardens. But kids being kids, they still managed to have fun. They were looking forward to use their nice little umbrellas that mommy bought a few months back.
Here is a retro song to accompany this post.
