The first day of discovering turkey leg-Animal Kingdom

The second day of trip was a leisurable one. Too much tired after our 15 hours visit to Magic Kingdom, Animal Kingdom which is kinda small  was being scheduled on the itinerary so that we still could survive for the rest of the days. It turned out that this kingdom is much better than my expectation!Seeing animals is not that bad afterall.

Haha look at everyone's expressions! shiny smile?!

Mount Everest ride which features some backward motion.

Jom pergi tengok haiwan-haiwan =)

The Nemo musical show which would be a nice one if I didn't fall asleep halfway due to tiredness haha

Turkey legs turkey legs which can be found in every theme park there. We were craving for it whenever the stomach started to grumble


With Goofy!


Magic Magic, dreams come true

Arriving at the inn at around 2 in the morning, we had only three hours of sleep before we headed to our first destination, the Magic Kingdom of Disneyworld.

We began our roller coaster ride with an amzing journey to the space. More and more rides were being conquered for the coming days, and I finally can conquer my fear of roller coaster by opening my eyes big  throughout the whole journey. Shouting and screaming, I forgot the stress and the overwhelming burden of studies.

A lot of Disney characters can be seen during the parade, and it was so much exciting to see the reunion of Mickey family! The fireworks at night is definitely the best that I have ever seen in my life. This kingdom is undoubtedly a place for dreams to come true. Too bad my camera battery died off on that night and not a single picture of the castle and fireworks was taken. But the scenes of sparkling fireworks are too hard to be erased from the mind!

It was a whole new experience to countdown with people singing and cheering around. New year new wishes?I still hvn't given a serious thought to this. Maybe more trips for coming holidays?as eaasy as that!


first photo added to the collection of group photo


can't believe that I actually have the chance to see the castle with my own eyes!

For unknown reason, I love this picture so much!

The memories continue

It took me awhile to enter my username and password while signing in blogger. Undeniably, I didn.t update this blog for more than 3months aldy. Guess this post might be the last post before this blog is officially closed.

Time really flies. Two weeks of vacation ended officially. I am done with post-travelling cleaning and energy charging. But somehow I still can't get used to the life of waking up late in the morning, cooking our own meals and slacking off in front of the laptop to fb, all because I had been waking up too early in the morning, dining out or having bread as meal throughout the whole trip. The long long trip is exhausting but I miss it so much. How I wish i can soak myself in the dream world and reality doesn't haunt me anymore.

Shortly after final ended, we had one guest who came all the way from Texas. Ah Fat was here for around one week long and his visit here was definitely a great one ( he is an awesome cleaner haha). To be honest, if he didn't pay a visit here, we won't have the chance to explore Madison throughout. We won't have the chance to know how big our appetite can be and we won't know how to fry a good egg hehe.

 The short escape from hectic life began with a excursion to the windy city, Chicago. This was my second visit there and touring with different people definitely brought different experience. I ate a lot of nice food during this trip which was enough to burn a big big hole in my pocket.


travelling during winter is troublesome.just look at the layers of cloth we wore
