After exploring Hong Kong Disneyland, we decided to buy souvenirs and then find a good place for the Disney fireworks. The best place to watch the Disney in the Stars Fireworks is at Main Street U.S.A. The show starts at 9:00 pm but you have to check the website prior to going there to be sure that you would get the right time.
Before we settled down to watch, we decided to try those amazing looking “Mickey Mouse Waffle” that they’re selling in Main Street U.S.A. It costs 50hkd. Please do not waste 50hkd for that haha. It looks good, but it’s not. It actually does not have any taste. We also tried the egg tart which costs 16hkd in one of the bakeries in the Main Street U.S.A but it is also not worth it.
After that, we did some souvenir galore shopping! And there were so many things to buy, some expensive, some worth for the price. And we bought a lot! The only downside to this is that there were so many people in the stores because of the upcoming fireworks display.
After filling up our bags with souvenirs, we searched for a place to settle in and watch the fireworks. The fireworks show is an amazing array of music, laser, and pyrotechnics and is choreographed together with various Disney theme music. It was beautiful! You would literally have tears on your eyes while watching. I wasn’t able to take photos because, again, my camera sucks at night and I just wanted to watch the show without any distractions. The show lasted for around 15 minute and more and then after that, it was a mad rush back to the MTR, a really mad rush! People were everywhere! And we wanted to get to the MTR before they do. Unfortunately, when we got there, our Octopus Card ran out of credit so we had to fall in line to refill it, which took a lot of time.
Anyway, we headed to the Mong Kok Night market for a bit of shopping time. From the Disneyland train, alight at Sunny Bay Interchange. Ride the Tung Chung line train and get off at Lai King interchange to switch to the Tsuen Wan Line. Get off at Mong Kok Station and start shopping.
But before that, we saw a Café de Coral branch and decided to have some dinner. I forgot the name of the dish but it was good and it costs 40hkd. After that, we explored the night market but it was already closing because we got there a bit too late. We decided to walk up to the Tsim Sha Tsui area, but it was a very, very bad idea. Do not do it! Just ride a bus or the MTR.
And that ends our Disneyland adventure. Up next is our 3rd day in Hong Kong which starts with a trip to Macau.
