Easter at Disneyland

Finally, both Kids are back to school from 25th. K then had fever on Friday 🤦 apparently from the heat her body has absorbed and physically exhausted throughout the 10 days Easter break . She is all good by now, waking me and the lil bro up before 7am to play 😴 


Throw back to the most tiring final days of the Easter activities happened on 23-24th April .


With past year's Magicarnival experience, Mr and I decided to make it a yearly fun time to stay a night at the Disneyland's hotel and joined the Easter Magicarnival. The package deal is way more reasonable during weekdays with a night at Disney newest hotel, the Disneyland Explorer's Lodge, 2 Magicarnival tickets worth $600 (we have to get extra 2 but at discounted price of $400),  dining voucher and discount coupons. 


Disneyland's Easter Magicarnival have over 30 activities, scattered throughout 3 hotels - Disneyland's Resort, Explorer's Lodge and Hollywood, so it's not overly crowded. They all have different themes of Bouncy Castles, DIY activity for Easter Egg related,  stalls for stamps collection to exchange a gift, Disney characters photo time. And each have special attractions, like the Hollywood's electric cars driving area, Explorer's challenge activities with Brave viking training and Resort's bubble music show ! 





We did online check in prior the day, picked up keys by 11.30 on the 23rd, drop everything in the room and left  to the carnival that's starting at 12noon. Kids had fun jumping in the bouncy castles, done all special activities including the DIYs, completed their stamp collection. After 4 hours of "tanning" under the sun, even though there's clouds and wind blew a little, we are all exhausted and dehydrated. Called it a day after buffet dinner at Chef's Mickey for D while K stays up a little later for the bed time stories. 




Next day is just sleeping and relaxing TV time in room till check out time at 11. We decided to go Disneyland before lunch at World of Color. The weather is great but too hot for kids to stay outdoor 🥵 we gave up after 3 rides and went to lunch before heading home.

High Island Reservoir East Dam (萬宜水庫東壩)

A couple of months ago, I planned on an easy scenery walk with kids and their friends. We left home right after school, only managed to grab a bite on the way to Sai Kung. There are plenty of hiking trails waiting for us in Sai Kung but this time, we go for the easiest route, just a short visit to the East Dam.  It’s a reservoir formed in 1978, known for the volcanic rock columns and anchor shape sea barrier(錨形防波提), a breakwater. There’s public toilets right at the entrance to High Land Reservoir East Dam, along there’s information on volcanic rocks and pavilion. It’s concrete or asphalt pavements all the way down to the sea cave which is proof of coastal erosion (海蝕洞).  On your way down to the breakwater, there’s a gigantic wall of volcanic rocks, which is the hexagonal rocks columns! Its a 140 millions year old volcanic history. Along the way you passed the road with sea barrier (my suggestion is to spend time here on your way out), hexagonal volcanic rocks on your right a...

Tips: Hiking

Hiking with kids can be tough but we did it anyway, because it’s one of the best way to show kids the right way to care and love the nature. Of course, there are times where kids get worn out, feel bored or throw tantrums; but they develop new skills like observing plants and livings in nature, experience independence and trained physiques when they spend time outdoors.  However, heading into the nature with children requires some planning and prep;  1. Right clothing and gear. Layers of clothes so you could adjust for changing temperatures, weather and condition. Closed-goes shoes that fit well. Accessories like hat and sunglasses  2. Stock up your backpack.  Filled up with snacks for kids (something they’ll look forward to), plenty of water, sunscreen and bug repellent. Consider to let your young children like mine (4.5yo and 3yo) bring 1 of their favourite toy if it makes them feel better about the hike. And not forget the first aid kit stock with bandage, bite an...

Amphibians or Reptiles ?

Do you know how to differentiate amphibians and reptiles? Well, we learnt that (yes, even as adult, I learnt with my kids) at the amphibian classroom held by ki2zoo  Kids absolutely love the class ! They asked to have a pet gecko or snake few months back, but of course, mommy is no fan of cold-blooded pet, so I rejected 😂 Hence, they’re looking forward to this class, being able to held and pet those (in their word) “cute and adorable” little geckos and baby snakes.  The 1hour 20mins class time include introducing, little quiz game for kids, picture and petting time.  Kids now know that the 🥚 eggs for reptiles and amphibians are different, reptile’s is with eggshells and the latter lay eggs in water and covered in gel ; 🦎 reptiles’ skins are dry, hard and scaly while 🐸 amphibians are smooth and highly porous : and amphibians needs water in their habitat their life cycles involves that.  If you’re interested, I’ve gathered some information from the organisation:...
