Ngong Ping 360 and it's village, Hongkong

Ngong Ping 360 in Lantau Island of Hongkong is one of the must see attractions in Hongkong.It includes an almost 6km-long cable car ride to the top of one of its highest mountain peaks on Lantau Island ,Ngong Ping Skyrail.The Hong Kong cable car,25 minutes ride has the capacity to carry as many as 7000 people an hour (3500 in both directions.A visit to the impressive cultural themed village, Ngong Ping Village where you can see one of the biggest Buddha in the world.

I remember I was so afraid, the moment the cable car begins to run I was praying all the time :)especially when I looked down,I felt dizzy but when my husband said relax,nothing's gonna happen,I started enjoying the ride and the views of the whole Lantau Island.It was my longest ride in a cable car,usually it takes only 10 minutes but riding it 50 minutes back and forth,wow!what a great experience!

When you're in Hongkong guys,don't forget to go in Ngong Ping 360,surely your vacation will be a memorable one!

Busy streets of Hongkong

Last year we were in Hongkong for a vacation.It was our first to visit the country.Hongkong is know for shopping,many people from around the world want to go here to buy electronic products,clothes,jewelries and other things because it's much cheaper to buy here especially if it's a bulk one.

The streets are very crowded and very busy.Parang hindi mahulugan ng karayom( the needle can't even go through)Here,in my experience,locals don't know much in english,so it was kind'a hard forus communicating with them.

Alex's first visit to Disneyland

Last week we went to Disneyland again in Paris to let Alex experience the magic of Mickey :).It was Alex's first visit.We decided to take him there since he likes mickey and friends.It is one of his favorite cartoons and everytime he sees their photos,it makes him happy.

When we were there,at first he didn't enjoy much,he just looked around but in the afternoon when we took some rides,he started to smile and enjoy.He was happy and really enjoyed the parade.He was able to see the cartoon characters that he usually watch on TV.

Maybe we will go back there when Alex is big enough to appreciate the park and rides.

Euro Disneyland Paris

Disneyland Resort Paris is located at Marne la Vallee and it has two park,the Disneyland Park and the Disney Studio.Disneyland Park is an amusement theme park composed of of five imaginary lands to enjoy,the Adventureland, Fantasyland, Discoveryland, Frontierland and Main street USA.

What I loved and most waited is the Parade of Disney characters,it reminisced my childhood.I watched almost those cartoons.It was so nice seeing them alive hehehe.

Disneyland Studio main attractions are Armageddon special effects,rock and roller coaster ride,disney animation,cinemagique to name a few.Rock and Roller coaster Ride with Aerosmith,seems that you're doing 360 degrees of turn,100km/h of speed in less that 3 seconds,I remember I told my self that,it would be my first and last,I thought I'll end up there.I just screamed out loud with tears for me to be able to breathe.Same thing happened to me when I rode the Space Mountain at Disneyland Park.I guess rides like that are intended to those with high adrenalin and seeking some adventures.

By the way,they are celebrating their 15 anniversary,so kids 7 years below will get free accomodation and free entrance to both Disney Parks.That's great,right?

You will really enjoy visiting here,just be early so that you can have a taste of each ride.

Sacré Coeur (The Sacred Heart Basilica of Montmartre)

The Sacred Heart Basilica of Montmartre is one of the popular landmarks here in France and it is located on top of the hill in 18 arrondisement of Paris.It's a church and a place for Pilgrimage.It's a sanctuary where perpetual prayer attracts many "pèlerins" of France and even in other countries.

To go there,you must hike up the hill or if you want, you can take the funicular.It's a great feeling after you're done hiking,you will see the beautiful panoramic view of Paris.

Louvre Museum

Louvre Museum is one of the most visited place here in France and the most visited museum in the world.It is located near Garden of Tuileries and Seine river. Here,you can see the famous Monalisa by Leonardo Da Vinci and some other world’s famous works of art .
In the middle,you can see the Louvre Pyramid which serves as the main entrance of the museum. I remembered,when we went there,with so much beautiful paintings and sculptures,we never visited the whole place,we runned out of time.It’s really worth the visit though.

How I wish it's summer

We're approaching winter and It's freezing cold here already, grrrr... we're in 5 degree celcius and it was even 3 degree celcius the other day.I really envy the people who live in the tropical country.What a chance!

Usually,when we visit Davao City,we did not miss to go to Paradise Island Beach Resort in Samal.With it's white sand and blue crystal water,you will surely love to stay there and not only that,they also have restaurant and mini zoo.

When summer time in Philipines, many people flock to the beaches.You know what,we've been to different beach resorts in europe,but I only saw my husband swimming at the beach in Davao,he prefers the warm temperature of the water there compared here.

How I really wish I was in Davao City,lying on the sand.
