Metal Mickey - PH


Fountain at the entrance of DisneyLand Hong Kong. Looks like metal to me, but I was told this sculpture of Mickey is made of stone.


Remember this scene?

  19. stanley,
    I cannot leave too much trail of what I'm doing. It's getting too risky and dangerous. I know who are reading my posts.

    I have my sources to protect.

    Wahhhh! macam like spy movie. haha....

  33. Great photos! I did wonder where you disappeared to. So there's a Disney World in Hong Kong- didn't know that.

    I did Photo Hunt today, too. I hope you get a chance to visit and leave your link. :)

  39. Hi ecl,

    I readall ur posts but this comment column is very long lah - got to wait in line - haha !

    Anyway, Disney HK looks fun. Was it cold there ? We went to Disney USA n they hv different sights on main street. Had a great day tho.
    We hv several theme parks in NL n we always go for the death-defying roller coasters - super duper frightening but got to try it, right ?

  45. Emzkie,
    I thought the fountain was very unique and I was fascinated with Mickey surfing on the water sprout from the whale.

  47. peppylady,
    Yes, there are paints that could make objects look metallic. It's amazing what inventors could think of. Happy weekend!

  50. Hello Dutchie,
    Disney Hong Kong is fun for the little kids. It is small and there aren't many rides and the roller-coaster was not frightening.

    I can't take the rollercoaster any more.... probably age is catching up. haha....

    I prefer to visit Disney USA. It is bigger and has more exciting rides.

    The weather was cooler than in Singapore, probably about 27 degrees Celsius. But it gets cold at night.

  51. Okay, am I the only one who thinks it looks like Donald Duck is taking a d*mp in the crow's nest?

    Okay, maybe it's just me.

    But seriously...
