Disneyland - Where Dreams Come True

Its been looong looong time i did not update new post to the blog. I was back to my home country for wedding preparation and now yes, i'm back to Melbourne again.

This time i would like to share some of the pictures that we have taken during our trip to Tokyo soon after our wedding. The first must visit for us in Tokyo is the Disneyland theme park! It's actually not out first time to Disneyland Tokyo, but we never been bored about it. It always been new attractions that bring us there. In Tokyo, there are 2 theme parks under Disney, which is the Disneyland and Disney Sea.

Disney Sea Tokyo is the only ONE and only one Disney sea-based themepark in the world! You should visit it if you happen to be in Tokyo =) In fact the latest attraction in Disney Sea has make us more eager to visit the park. Disney Sea just launched the "Toy Story Mania", a latest 3D technology ride that is based on Toy Story theme. Please be early to the park as it was always filled with long queues. We waited for about 2 hours before getting to the ride. Another way to save your time, is to get a 'Fast Pass" for the ride. Fast Pass is actually a special pass that allows you to get a shorter queue to the ride at a specific allocated time.

Toy Story Mania:  IT IS A MUST GO RIDE IN DISNEY SEA!

Meaning of Easter and Easter Bunny


It's been quite a while since my last post and a just a few days, we will be celebrating Easter Day. To Christians, Easter Day is a meaningful day besides Christmas as it symbolize of Resurrection of Jesus Christ. Because of Jesus scarifice at the cross, human's sin are then can be forgiven. Apart of the theological meaning, often we also see bunnies and eggs during Easter day especially at western countries. This year in Melbourne, most of the department stores and supermarkets have been start selling chocolates bunnies and eggs few weeks earlier.

It's been quite interesting as you can see many different type of chocolates bunnies and eggs in the market. Although it's been common to see bunny and egg during Easter Day, however not many know the meaning behind it. Therefore i did a quick search at Wikipedia and this is the explaination: "The Easter Bunny is a rabbit-spirit. Long ago, he was called the "Easter Hare", hares and rabbits have frequent multiple births so they became a symbol of fertility. The custom of an Easter egg hunt began because children believed that hares laid eggs in the grass. The Romans believed that "All life comes from an egg." Christians consider eggs to be "the seed of life" and so they are symbolic of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Today on Easter Sunday, many children wake up to find that the Easter Bunny has left them baskets of candy".

Besides, i also found that in Australia here, on Good Friday, it is a tradition to eat Cross Bun. This are some of the intresting stuff that i like to share around. Hope everyone have a wonderful and blessed Easter Day ahead!

Adelaide Trip - Day 1

It was a long holiday during XMas and New Year, so we made a trip to Adelaide for 4 days 3 nights. I used to find travel tips epscially from blogs with itinerary whenever a trip was planned. Try to get info of "must-visit" spots, places of nice food and drinks and etc is a must for me! =)However i found that there are not much info on Adelaide. Mostly are just information provide by the tourism board or tripadvisor on the tourist spots. Therefore hopefully, the post that i prepared here will eventually useful for people who plan to visit Adelaide soon!



First impression of Adelaide?? Comfortable city with wide roads! Unlike Melbourne, congested with cars, trams and people! Haha. Adelaide was deemed as the most relax city in Australia. On the first day, we catch Jetstar from Melbourne to Adelaide and upon arrival we check in into our serviced apartment, Mantra on Frome. It was a nice serviced apartments that was situated just walking distance from the CBD street mall.


After a short rest, we headed to Adelaide Zoo with intention to have a look on their latest attractions, the Panda. Adelaide Zoo was given with 2 Pandas with name Wang Wang & Fu Ni by the Chinese government for the period of 2 years. Besides Panda, the Zoo also have vast collection of animals and worth a visit. More information about the zoo, visit their webiste at http://www.adelaidezoo.com.au/
