I'm new here to your world, and I'm most honored to have found Mickey News and met Gavin.
The first time that I visited Disneyland was in December of 1971 at the age of eleven. Little did I know the impact that visit to Disney World would have on my life. Walt Disney World had only opened a couple of months before our arrival, I had the time of my life. I have many fond memories of that trip, and I will look forward to bring some of those memories back to you here from time to time. I did return to Disney World eighteen years later, and I had an even better time the second time around as EPCOT was then open during my trip in 1989. Over the years I have had the opportunity to visit all of the Disney Parks multiple times, with each visit bringing the "kid" out of me, seeing me running down Main Street U.S.A. Tradition is I set my wrist watch to the clock on Main Street, or the clock on the castle. I count the seconds to my next visit of adventures. I ask myself sometime if I'm tired of the Disney Parks? At the end of the day my answer after 45 years of age is always, "never enough"! My Mum always told me to "grow up" someday! I'm happy to report that every time I enter a Disney Park, I'm eleven years old again. Thank-you Walt, I will never grow up, sorry Mum!
I now live here in Hong Kong, you can imagine my excitement when in 1999 the government of Hong Kong announced that a Disney Park would open right here in Hong Kong. On September 12th, 2005 our Hong Kong Disneyland opened to welcome the world. I have visited Hong Kong Disneyland two times already, along with enjoying the two hotels multiple times. The list of adventures and fun that I have had in only about two months is enormous. I look forward to write here about my visits to Hong Kong Disneyland bring to you ideas and tips. Every time I visit Hong Kong Disneyland I have a great adventure.
"Dreams can come true" - Walt Disney
My Favorite quote from Walt as Walt was right, all of my dreams do come true at Disneyland. I look forward to be a part of Mickey News, and to inform all of my adventures at the happiest place on earth, Hong Kong Disneyland!
