Fantasy Land

After so many years living in a 'real-cruel' world, I think I have gradually lost the ability in fantasizing. I don't even remember when was the last time I dream in my sleeping time?


When I review the things that I did for the past several years, I find that most of the things I did, I did it for a purpose, and always after certain levels of consideration. I still practice this. There is virtually not much thing I do out of spontaneous basis, without a clear objective. Gosh, what a down-to-earth people I have become.


But back to fantasy term, how to define it? Some defined it as the creative imagination; unrestrained fancy (positive). Some defined it as hallucination (negative). Positive or negative, sometimes it's hard to define right.


It's not a fantasy to visit a castle, but it's a fantasy to live in a castle.



It's not a fantasy to see this lovely scene, but it's a fantasy to see them not to fight in any day.

To some couples, maybe it's a fantasy to have 2 boys like this. To me, it's not a fantasy (hehe..)
*
*
but it's sure a fantasy to own a house like this...



Also, it's not a fantasy to meet the princesses...




but it's definitely a fantasy to become a genuine princess.





After seeing some real castles in England, this Sleeping Beauty Castle seems so petite and fake.



And the funny thing is, I fantasize better in an old-real castle than a new-fake castle.

This clock, it looks newer than the clock at my home. So, how to have nostalgic feelings about this Fantasy Land?



Fantasy Flowers.

Cinderella Carousel, is still my 8-year-old & 5-year-old boy's fantasy. *




To me, the only place that can arouse my fantasy a bit is this place, "The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh".





Well, I do feel like I've entered a twilight zone when I was taking a ride inside there.



Just that, too bad the ride is a bit too short.

Sigh, fantasy won't last long?

It's A Small World

Lately, I have bumped into many of my ex-colleagues in the place I work in. Some of them had left the company for a very long time, including our ex-CEO. I have never seen them else where until now. Apparently, they work in this place too.

Isn't this a small world? I guess my ex-colleague would feel the same too.



Yes, it's indeed a small world.










Every 30 minutes, the door will open and there go the doll-parades following the song of "It's a small world".









































































From the beginning of the journey till its end, all we hear is the song of "it's a small world", sang in different languages. So much that after I walked out from there, my brain was so full with the rhythms. That's what brain wash is all about, right?

Tomorrow Land

Tomorrow Land is not very tomorrow's feel.
*
Actually, I don't have many ideas how's our future world is going to look like? There is only one thing I can visualize here : Will the global warming eventually destroy our planet to a very severe level? Well, I keep my finger crossed that it's not too late to mend things over by now and ever.




Anyway, this is kid's Tomorrow Land, for sure.



He likes to think he is as mighty strong as Superman does.



The moving recycled-bin was pathetically bullied by the children who saw it. Emm...I think they should have programmed the robot to scare off the children, and not run away instead. That would be funny, haha..







Buzz is standing there to brief the visitors. But not many people were paying attention to him.




It's good that not many people were lining up to go in there. So, literary one could play as many times as they wish. For us, we played 2X for the 1st day, and 2X for the next day too. Ok, we feel very satisfied this time.




In average, Vincent got 20,000 points; William got 17,000 points; me got 27,000 points; husband got 100,000 points (hello, is it correct? or his counter has something wrong?)




Stitch Encounter is our 1st time. Heard many people said it's very hilarious to have real time interaction with Stitch. So, we definitely want to try it out this time.



Vincent was picked as one of the targets this time. It was indeed funny to see how Stitch was trying to make fool of him. Vincent was so happy about his encounter with Stitch that I'm sure he will remember it for a long long time.
*
William wanted to have this encounter for his own too, so we went back to give him a try. Too bad, he wasn't picked. And he was pretty unhappy about it.
*
Anyway, the formula of the interaction is pretty much the same like the previous one, probably it's the same for every show too. So, we lost our interest in it very fast.




The next morning, when we went back to this place again, we bumped into the "real" Buzz Lightyear. He made a lots of different poses for every single shot, tried to please everyone who queue for him. That's what 'professional' and 'dedication' all about, right. Thank you, for the man behind the heavy costume.
*
Well, so long for Tomorrow Land.*
